His fingers are itching, his tummy is twitching.
With hunger and longing, for sandwiches gobbling.

Full-page colour illustrations on each facing page, with the occasional blue monochrome vignette. Pastedowns and endpapers depict a blue monochrome map of the story's setting, with places of interest clearly labelled. Matt pictorial boards. Spine ends bumped, with negligible creasing to the body. Incredibly, the corners are straight! Pages are in fabulous condition: crisp, bright, unmarked, and free from all defect. Super-tight binding. Extremely scarce first edition – later printings have green boards. Original title: The Flickerdick Measures 17.5 cm × 11.5 cm (7″ × 4.5″). 12mo. 51 pp. Price: £17.00 |
