Measures 6" X 8-15/16", 309+ pp, written and illustrated by Walt Kelly, published by Simon & Schuster (New York), Fireside Press.

Front cover shows wear to all edges and corners; 3/4" fold at lower right corner, with 3/8" fold inside that; 3/8" chipping along right bottom edge;  1/2" vertical crease from lower left bottom; 1/2" X 1/2" X 1/2" gouge/tear at upper edge; chipping all along vertical reader crease.

Back cover is soiled; edges and corners show wear and chipping; 2" diagonal crease from right lower corner.

Page tops have been marked with a big "X" in black marker, but no other apparent markings.

This volume includes two different previously published POGO books from 1953 and 1954, POGO, PRISONER OF LOVE and THE INCOMPLEAT POGO.  Also included is a short essay written by Walt Kelly on July 4, 1954, "The Estate Of Our Independence."

I would grade the book as only a Good, thus a perfect reading copy of some of Pogo's earlier exploits.

Spine is tight with no roll; sun-fade; 3/8" tear at upper right edge where it meets cover; two tape lifts on bottom of spine, 3/8" X 3/8" and 1/4" X 3/4".

Shipping charges include postage (including USPS Delivery Confirmation on domestic shipments), packaging materials, labor and fuel (the nearest post office is 14 MILES away!), and I do combine shipping charges on multiple items -- so fill up that cart NOW an' save some $$$!
