Enid Blyton The Flying Goat
London Pitkin Leatherette. Poor No Jacket Davies,Simon and SIV
This is a book in very poor condition, I have listed it mainly as novelty value as there are not many around. It is still readable and complete but has more than it's fair share of scribbling particularly on the end papers. Most of the spine has gone and the kind of fake brown leather cover has chipped on the edges. Some pretty black and white drawings by various illustrators, many of them scribbled on but may be recoverable with patience and an eraser!

Enid Blyton Benny and the Princess
Pitkin Hardcover Poor Various
This is a sad little book but it seems a shame to throw it away as it is a fairly rare Blyton and the pictures are charming. The title page has been painted blue, and four other pages through the book have some damage, ie rubbing or in one case a small strip torn around the margin. Other than that it is not too bad! Cover is sound but scruffy and other pages are clean. bx23
