Description
For sale: a rare and exceptional first paperback edition, later printing of The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff. First Edition stated, 1982 E. P. Dutton. Twenty-first Printing with partial number line, 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21.
The exterior of this paperback is in Near Fine condition, with clean, illustrated covers with no creases, moderate surface wear, strong title on a square spine, lightly soiled page blocks, a tight binding with no spine cracks, lightly rubbed spine ends, mild spine tilt, mild edge wear and lightly rounded corners. The interior of the book is also in Near Fine condition with an erased price on the first free end paper. No other marks, inscriptions, or other signs of ownership inside. The end papers and the interior pages are clean and lightly toned, making it an excellent addition to any collection.
Winnie-the-Pooh has a certain way about him, a way of doing things that has made him the world’s most beloved bear, and Pooh’s Way, as Benjamin Hoff brilliantly demonstrates, seems strangely close to the ancient Chinese principles of Taoism.
Small volume (7.25 x 5.25 x .5″) ships promptly in a manila envelope with book wrapped in both craft paper and multiple layers of bubble wrap.
