This stunning French book of Cinq Semaines en Ballon by Jules Verne was published in 2006. The binding is stunning and in near fine condition. There is light rubbing to the corners and crushing to the spine ends; there is also minor bumping to the bottom edges of the boards.
Inside, the pages are clean and bright with minimal wear. Dimensions approximately 28.3cm x 18.1cm x 3cm.
The book will arrive hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and string.
I use a range of eco friendly, 100% recyclable jiffy bags and boxes, and whenever possible I use brown paper tape. The green bubble wrap is oxo-degradable and the clear bubble wrap is 100% recyclable. I also reuse boxes when I feel it's appropriate (if the boxes are sturdy enough).
