Angus Macvicar: The Lost Planet The Children’s Book Club, 1958. This item is ?1960 [first published date 1958, by Burke Publishing]. It is part of a private collection and set of similar children’s rare books going to auction over the next month. This copy is in vg+ condition, a tight and bright copy with some tanning to page edges but clean text and owner name on free front-end-page. The dust-jacket has been placed in a protective wrapper and is largely vg but has flattened out creases, is nice and clean, and with slight fade to spine and some chipping and small holes (see image). It is not price-clipped. The boards are clean and bright: cream with black or brown titles on spine. There is a historic shopkeeper price inside (for guidance on the grading of this book, please see below).

The following is the system I use for grading books ~

Mint ~ New or as new, clearly unread, no tanning to pages, no creasing to spine or cover, no marks or inscriptions. This is the condition you would expect to find in a high street bookstore or on mail-order.

Excellent ~ The book appears to be in fine condition. A closer look reveals some signs of previous ownership, such as shelf-rubbing and in some cases an inscription. Yet on the whole, the book is perfect.

Very Good + ~ Less than excellent condition with no more than mild tanning or foxing to pages, minor creasing to spine or cover, possible shop sticker/pencilled price or previous owner name, but no other marks or inscriptions. This is still a tight and bright copy.

Very Good ~ The book shows clear signs of previous ownership / shelf wear. There may be some tanning / foxing to pages, slight creases to spine or cover, inscriptions from previous owner (typically their name or words of presentation).

Good + ~ The book cover and contents may have faded in colour and there may be creases, wear and inscriptions. However the book is still intact and readable and there is no loosening to spine or pages.

Good ~ This is an acceptable reading copy and there may be several of the reported problems above as associated with age and/or mishandling.

Poor ~ A book such as this is sent to auction for reasons such as the edition's rarity. This will probably not make an acceptable reading copy, and is more likely to have value in relation to its collectable status.

N.B. where a double grading is given, the latter refers to the dust-jacket, wrapper or cover

This grading guide is updated monthly to save you scrolling through archives. 

Your book can be gift-wrapped with festive wrapping paper and ribbon, together with your message.

Simply request the service when paying indicating the recipient, recipient address and 'your message'.

Your book will then be gift-wrapped, placed in bubble-wrap and secured in a thick, corrugated card sleeve before being sent to the recipient address.

The cost is £1.25. Please add this to the p&p box on your invoice.
