144 pages. Illustrations (some with color). Cover has slight wear and soiling. Reader's Digest is an American general-interest family magazine, published ten times a year.

These were all listed in the Table of Contents on the front cover. Each article was prefaced by a small, simple line drawing. Presumed First Edition, First printing [thus].…
