New York, New York: Bantam Books, 1956. Daniel Schwartz (cover). Soft Covert. Very good paperback copy of "The Circus of Dr. Lao and Other Improbable Stories" edited by Ray Bradbury. 1st paperback edition / 1st Bantam Giant printing A1519 with a cover price of 35 cents. One reading crease in spine. The back cover looks to have been stuck at one point to another books and separated leaving some remnants. This does not affect the print. Tight and otherwise clean.
