A TOY FOR THE LION

by T.R. Nicholson

Published by William Kimber. 1st. 1965

Almost very good condition in a almost very good dustwrapper. B/w photos. The amazing story of Bede Bentley who heard that the Emperor of Ethiopia wanted a new car. He satisfied that wish by driving 3000 miles to provide it in 1907.

Text block browned. Some scattered foxing. Overall look of contents is grubby to endpapers and outer page edges. Pictorial dustwrapper is worn, scuffed, and has a few edge tears.
