Softcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. 66 pages (complete). A confident even, at times, cocky copy. This edition was published in aid of the Buxton Hostels (student residences) in Pretoria. The thick paper covers are worn and marked and scuffed. Yet, they are affable and sure. The cover has a previous owner signature. Within, the early advertising pages are foxed. The contents themselves are most happily benevolent. They are thick, clear, occasionally marked near the edges by age, clean, generous and barely aged. A pleasing, contented and competent copy. fk.
