A lad of Evesham Vale - Fred Archer
A Lad of Evesham Vale by Fred Archer, published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1972. This is a hardback with a pictorial dust jacket showing a watercolour-style illustration of a river scene with a boat, figures, and a cottage among trees, set against a blue sky.
The title page carries the signature "Fred Archer" in blue ink. The inside cover bears an ownership signature reading "A. H. Papps". The copyright page confirms the 1972 first printing details and publisher information.
The dust jacket shows some edge wear and light toning, with a small mark near the top of the spine and a crease at the lower corner of the front panel. The spine panel retains clear lettering and the illustration continues onto it. Internal pages appear clean and off-white, with the text well printed and legible. The back panel lists other titles by the same author with review quotations.
