       January, 1961. $.75 is the original price. 416 pages. Tight binding but opens a bit easily between pages 240-241 and 250-153, corresponding, roughly, to where the wrinkle/crease from book opening is on the Spine.

Some very small bits of edge wear are at the bottom edge.
Spine: The wrinkle/crease I mentioned plus a bit of edge wear at the edges.
Back Cover: A ¾" - long bit of (?) dirt, but it's minor. In General: The book's not quite glued true at page 253.

The first 3 pages have a small bit of light greenish colour at the middle, right edge. There's a small bit of light green colour at the top edge of the pages, but it's nothing much. The second story begins after page 215. Story: (Scoop): - A Nature Writer is sent to cover a civil war.
