Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good Minus. 1st Edition. Stated First Printing. First edition. I have priced this dust jacketed first edition very inexpensively (check out the few other comparables) despite it being in very nice condition. The book is illustrated by the renowned artist and 'citiz…en scientist ornithologist' Roger T. Peterson. You can see the green covers of the book in the photos. I don't see any stains. There are areas of color fading or loss. The spine is a lighter green. The red and gilt lettering on the spine is still nicely bright. There is a little wear at the top edge of the spine, none at the bottom edge. The other cover edges look very good, no rubbing. The cover corners are in very good shape, no rubbing. The page edges look very good. The middle one has a handful of tiny light tan spots. The book is square and the spine is straight. The pages are solidly bound throughout. I found one instance of a very thin space between two facing pages, both pages tightly bound from top to bottom. The pages are exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I'm not finding any instances of soiling. I'm not finding any conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases, no turned-down corners. There are no markings in the book. There are no attachments of any kind. There is some toning/discoloration on each of the inside covers, partly due to the contact with the inside of the jacket's flaps over these many years. Finally, there is a small neatly penned name off the top edge of the front inside cover. There is no other writing to be found anywhere else in the book. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. I have it in a fitted protective cover. It has some of what looks like toning or handling soiling. There is a teeny tiny loss at the top edge of the spine, and a little one just adjacent off the rear side of the spine. The bottom edge of the spine may have the thinnest sliver of loss, not quite sure. There is a thin tear off the top edge of the front. I don't see any other tears. The flaps are clean and in good shape, no conspicuous wear. All four corners have tucking-in clips, but the original price of this first edition ($2.00) is present and unaffected off the center of the bottom edge of the front flap. I saw another seller's picture of the front flap of the jacket on his book. It had different verbiage from mine and was blank at the bottom where the price is on my book, so I'm wondering whether there was a book club edition, possibly beware of that. From the dust jacket: 'Mrs. Nice's story is mainly concerned with two male song sparrows who staked out their claims in her garden, and whose boundary quarrels, matings, nestings, and systems of communication with their mates and their young she watched during eight years. By a system of banding numerous birds she was able to establish amusing variations in behavior and personality in individuals of the same species. Additional chapters include studies of the many other birds, from warblers to herons, who visited her woods and fields. As President of the Wilson Ornithological Club, Mrs. Nice's observations are those of an authority, but their accuracy makes them none the less charming. The exquisite illustrations in black and white are the work of Roger T. Peterson, Art Editor of Bird Love.' 'Paul R. Ehrlich, in The Birder's Handbook: A Field Guide to the Natural History of North American Birds said of Peterson: In this century, no one has done more to promote an interest in living creatures than Roger Peterson, the inventor of the modern field guide.' 'Margaret Morse Nice was an American ornithologist, ethologist, and child psychologist. Dean Richard Bond of Elmira College said about her: She used the outdoors near her home as her laboratory and common species of birds as her subject. In so doing, she joined the ranks of the eminent ornithologists of all time, who saw so much in what appeared common to so many. Konrad Lorenz wrote the preface to her autobiography.'. Roger T. Peterson (Art Editor of Bird Love) (illustrator).
