A pristine and lovely "Collector's Edition" in full calf of a facsimile of the first (1927) "Hardy Boys" title of a dozen published in this deluxe format. Slipcase reproduces the original jacket art and is especially heavy duty, thus wears well. Quite handsome -- and surprisingly uncommon. Undated, but likely 1987 vintage.
