The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe Bles, 1969 C S Lewis Pictures by Pauline Baynes Hardback published by Geoffrey Bles in 1969 Has Tenth Impression in green on the front flap of the dust jacket. ... First published 1950 Reprinted 1954, 1956, 1958, 1961, 1962, 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1969 ... Splendid copy of this childrens classic. Not a first edition but the last issued in exactly the same format as the first, before the design change. No inscriptions, marks or damage other than slight mottling to the page edges. Immaculate inside. The jacket very good but with minor faults: a small tear repaired almost invisibly internally with paste, a fold at bottom right on the front, a grease stain at centre front (on Lucys and Peters head in our photo), and the price has been clipped. Nevertheless a great find.
