Up for sale is a 5th printing of Osa Johnson's I Married Adventure originally published in 1940 by Lippincott. The book measures 9.5" X 6.5" and is 376 pages in length with numerous black & white illustrations. The original dust jacket is missing and the zebra-patterned cloth is moderately tanned along the spine and has many small yellowish-brown foxing spots (see 2nd photo for detail). Additionally, there is moderate edge and corner wear to the cloth as well as some staining and fading to the base of the spine. The front hinge is fairly loose but uncracked, and the previous owner's name & address is written in ink on the front paste-down. The endpapers have some staining as do the first few pages of the book, but the vast majority of the book is in clean shape. Though the hinge is wobbly, the binding feels secure and the book should still be fully readable, especially if you take care not to stress that hinge. Please be sure to fully enlarge the provided photos, and feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
