First (likely only) edition.  178pp, with line drawings.  in blue cloth-covered boards with silver titles on spine.  8vo.  Hint of toning to pages else neat, clean, bright and tight througout.  In its original dust wrapper, a little bumped on extreme edges.  

There is much that journalist and broadcaster Kenneth Robinson finds offensive, and often it is treasured and revered British institutions which he takes greatest exception to.  This is a hilarious and idiosyncratic collection which takes scuffs and swipes at things such as the Chelsea Flower Show and Cruft's Dog Show.
