Father Christmas had a fit of the blues because no-one had ever filled a stocking for him... along comes Bobby Bluegum the koala who promised to do the job for him and promised the old man a Happy Christmas into the bargain. Cream boards, red title and vignette to front cover. 45 pages, each with a colour illustration above or below the text. Spine and corners bumped, spine worn. A few light marks to covers. Front joint is cracked. Inscription in ink to front free-endpaper. Foxing to endpapers. Light finger-creases to page margins. Price-cut dustwrapper is grubby and edge worn, loss to top of spine. Title on rear panel of wrapper (Sweet Home) has been crossed out.
