Scarce with the wrapper

Sendak, Maurice ~ Where The Wild Things Are : With The Scarce Wrapper

The Bodley Head, London : 1967

The First UK printing published by The Bodley Head, London in 1967. The BOOK is in near Fine condition. Light toning to the board edges with a hint of pushing at the spine tips. Very early splaying of the front board. Internally clean with just a little light toning to the extreme page edges. Striking pictorial end-papers. Free from inscriptions and erasures. The WRAPPER is neatly price-clipped and is in Very Good++ condition. Some toning to the edges and spine. Light edge-wear with some creasing, a few small closed tears and a little rubbing in places. A 3cm closed tear to the upper rear edge and a very light small water stain to the lower spine which is barely discernible from the front. The wrapper is protected in a removable archival cover. Wonderfully illustrated in colour throughout by the author. Sendak's classic title and very scarce with the wrapper in such collectible condition
