Very good, in good wrapper, with chips and tears and a small tape repair internally to front flap hinge. A little loss to corners etc and price sticker residue to rear panel. Spine somewhat sunned. Price-clipped. First published in the US in 1961 but the ISBN puts this at 1973. 11th US printing. Nevertheless, an extremely rare edition to be found signed and inscribed (directly to half-title page) with best wishes to Nadia(?) Currently the only directly signed US edition available on ABE.

Paddington Helps Out is a charming continuation of the adventures of Paddington Bear, a friendly bear from Peru who now resides in England. With his characteristic politeness and love for marmalade, Paddington gets into more humorous situations much to the delight of readers.
