W Bryce Hamilton (illustrator). A good solid copy of this classic 128-page book. No tears or missing pages. The name "Geoffrey Coles" has been handwritten and stamped inside the front cover and "J Coles" written on the page edges (see photos). Apart from these there are no other markings on the pages. The lovely illustrations are clear and the story is complete. Sadly, I have no knowledge of who Geoffrey Coles is or was, but then the book is 79 years old!
