All of Carlsen’s early works are uncommon, particularly in the first edition and in this condition. This title is very difficult to find, especially with the dust jacket. This is a very solid volume that would be a great addition to any collection of books for young readers. Evidence of a previous water spot spanning front flap and front panel (upper right corner), about 3” in diameter, but has only minor effect on the jacket and no impact on the book. Fully intact DJ with minor chips and tears. Stated first printing and date of 1967 included on title page, confirming first edition per Houghton Mifflin standard. No other marks throughout the rest of the book. Owners inscription on FFEP (written by a child) and name also written on page ends (please see photo). The spine is very tightand in great shape. “Monty and the Tree House” by Ruth Christoffer Carlsen Illustrated by Leonard Shortall Published in 1967 by Houghton Mifflin Co 1st edition 183 pages Book condition: Very good.
