Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. 47 pages (complete). A wonderful book of advice for young women on the politesse of reply after losing their virginity in 'unusual' places. Here one can learn the correct thing to say on being deflowered by Valentino during a Seance, by proxy (!), by a famous crooner or during an American Express tour in the Latin Quarter by an alluring dancer. The discreet but happy dustjacket is enclosed in a clear cellophane protective jacket. The dj is worn and scuffed but still amiable and sweet. The board covers are bright and almost virginal. The contents have evidence of avid readership. Nonetheless the pages are clean, clear, goodhearted, reminiscent of Victoria Mather, mischievous and utterly delightful. fk.
