OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE PICTURES/REFERENCE BOOK TO OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE PLATES
Written by Enid Blyton. Illustrated by John Turner.
Stock no. 591918
Published by Macmillan & Co. Ltd.. 1960. Very good condition.

30 plates in brown/red hard card-cover (very large). With reference book to the plates - blue cloth with gilt title to spine. Beautiful full colour plates. Plates are complete, in original green paper case, inside hard card cover. Some plates have obviously been used for displying on walls and have marks to verso. Some also have a few small edge-chips/tears and some yellowing tape repairs. Overall though - very good - plates are still bright. All plates have staple pin holes, where they have been taken out of where they were original bound in. Book is marked to covers, has a couple of school ink stamps internally - but overall very good.
