The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. This book is in good condition with a few condition issues. There is a written name on the inside cover. Page 23 has a dogear with page 25 having a light impression from said dogear. The boards have light corner wear and slight wear to the spine ends. Most US second edition copies are difficult to identify because they lack a printing statement, unlike their UK counterparts. This is the ninth printing of the second edition from 1957 with the correct, teal-colored boards. On page 20, line 6, the letter "e" in "the" is clipped, on page 49, there is a signature mark of "C" at the bottom, and on page 223, line 26, one of the p's in the word "peep" is clipped, all identifying marks per the TolkienBooks.US website.
