RUPERT ANNUAL 1956 - THE RUPERT BOOK

by Alfred Bestall

Illustrated by Alfred Bestall

Published by Oldbourne Book Co. Ltd.. 1956

Slightly better than good condition. Colour laminated boards - Rupert flying through the air on a sledge. 107 pages. Painting page, cinema show and puzzle pages. A Daily Express annual. Not published in facsimile form as some of the content was considered politically incorrect.

Loss from top of spine and splits to bottom. Clear tape residue either side of spine at both ends. Laminate along rear edge of spine cracked with a couple of chips. Slight bumping and wear to corners. Covers a little grubby. Name partially erased from belongs to box, date remains and some writing within 'belongs'. Not price-cut. Grubby fingermarks to title page and contents page. Single line drawn over rear endpapers. Colouring page completed reasonably neatly. Cinema strip unused. Marks, mainly to lower margins, on quite a few pages.
