Description: Giles Annual Series - 42nd Date Cartoons Start 30/06/1987 Date Cartoons End 12/06/1988 Unclipped Condition - Unmarked covers, pages are clean and tight. Near Fine Introduced by - Johnny Speight The gift to see us and point it out with wit and humour, that touch that very few have to mirror what we are. A talent to draw and bring to life. . . not only to draw but to know what to draw. . . Plus. . . that great touch. . . the "common touch". . . the rare ability to reach right across the board. He spots our funny shapes, the nose that doesn’t quite fit, the eyebrows that look more like moustaches, and his women who look more like men . . . those faces we see in every crowd, those awful relations, those awful neighbours. . . and those cats who look far more elegant and superior in shape than their owners and seem to know it. I could go on but they only want a paragraph. Many, like me, I’m sure, would buy the EXPRESS just for "GILES". The "DAILY EXPRESS" has had many great editors, and even more great writers but only one "GILES". I’ve known him now for a good few years and have a strong suspicion he is Grandma.

MY GRADINGS New: A new book, never used. Fine (F): Should have no flaws, a perfect copy of a used book. Mint: Another term for Fine. As New (AN): Although a used book, it should appear unread with no flaws, just as when it was sold new. Near Fine (NF): May show a small flaw, such as shelf wear, but nearly perfect and unread. Very Good (VG): The broadest category for used books, this describes any average used book. May have small flaws, and has probably been read, but should appear overall clean and attractive. Good (G): Will probably have significant wear or damage, although is still intact. Suitable for reading, but not necessarily a good gift copy. The old saying in bookselling is "good ain't good." Fair: Another term for Poor or Reading Copy: Heavily worn or damaged, a poor book will be readable but not attractive. May have the odd page missing, but this will be noted on the relative listing. Binding Copy: This will be the complete pages of the book, but the binding has been broken or damaged to the point it will need professional rebinding Powered by eBay Turbo Lister Track Page Views With Auctiva's FREE Counter
