The Impatient Horse by George Murray & Xenia Berkeley.
One of the rarest of Ladybird books. This is a 1953 first edition with DJ. Secure binding, no rips or creases to pages. Possible slight water damage to edge of a few pages. Inscription on fly-leaf. Cover has minor wear. DJ intact but worn with some creases and small tears.
This collectible book is hard to find, and I doubt you’ll get it anywhere else for less.
Price £70.00.
SOLD
It’s just not cricket – well, actually it is.
I’ve just bought a couple of boxes of old cricket books, to add to my previously empty cricket page. I’ll add them on there as I sort through them.
Cheers,
Rick

No news is…well, it’s no news
I’ve been quiet, mainly because real life and work keeps getting in the way of my hobby i.e. this web-site. I’m still here though. I’ve got more books than ever – I just haven’t had time to list time on this site!
Come Fly With Me…
…let’s fly, let’s fly away.
Apart from plenty of aviation magazines, I also have some books, hence the new Aviation book page, which will fill up a bit in the next few days, time allowing.
