1964 The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis / First Edition, Seventh Impression, Geoffrey Bles, London / Original Dust Wrapper

I was excited to find this first edition (seventh impression) copy of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. The very first edition was published in 1950, with this later impression being from 1964. The contents are in very good condition. Still has the original dust jacket, this has some nicks and tears along the top, and an area of loss to the top of the spine. Otherwise clean, bright and un-faded.

Inside the pages are bright and tightly bound, with no writing or other markings of previous ownership. With a colour frontispiece, and many line drawings by Pauline Baynes.

The sky-blue cloth covered boards have faded along the top, but are otherwise clean and smart.

In the original unclipped dust wrapper. This has some nicks and chips along the top edge with some small areas of loss. Has a larger area of loss and two larger closed tears down from the top. With some creasing on the bottom edge on the back. Has a few faint white marks to the front and a little rubbing to the edges. The scarce jacket has now been protected for the future by the addition of a removable plastic sleeve.

Your vintage copy of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift card with a message to the parcel.
