Vintage illustrated hardcover copy of Smeller Martin by Robert Lawson, published by The Viking Press, New York, with 1950 shown on the title page. Nice older children's/juvenile fiction book with blue cloth boards, gray cloth spine, black title lettering, and a pictorial front cover.
Condition is fair. Please read: this appears to be a former library copy, with call number handwriting on the spine, an ink/property stamp inside, and pocket/label residue on the cover. No dust jacket is present. The cover shows moderate rubbing and soiling, spine discoloration, corner/edge wear, and adhesive ghosting on the front board. Inside, pages look generally intact and readable with age toning plus some smudging/spotting, and no major tears are visible in the photos.
Important note for collectors: the title page shows 1950, but without a copyright page or printing statement shown in the photos, I can’t confirm a true first printing.
Included is the book only, exactly as shown. A solid reading copy or vintage shelf piece if you’ve been looking for this Robert Lawson title. Feel free to message if you want a closer look before buying.
