 jonathan cape h/cvr first printing, first edition

collection of ten short stories and four novelettes, many but not all joan's trademark ''whimsies''

cover (d-j) art probably by pat marriott (check!)
interior b+w illustrations by pat marriott
cover (d-j) price
240pp? (check!) including titles, indicia, table-of-contents etc, bound with endpapers between covered boards
number in isbn10 field is the sbn actually borne
an isbn is easily expanded from this, but none such is on the d-j
