I have a book of Enid Blyton's 'Secret Seven Fireworks'. I think it may be a first edition but don't want to advertise it for sale as such, in case it isn't! Enid Blyton was a British author who wrote mainly children's books.

The book has no ISBN number showing, and no code to show what edition it is. But as I got it around 1959 I am wondering if it is a first, as that is when it was first published.

On the page opposite the 'Contents' it has the following:

"First published 1959
by Brockhampton Press Ltd
Market Place, Leicester
Made and printed in Great Britain by
Richard Clay and Company Ltd
Bungay, Suffolk
Text copyright 1959 by Enid Blyton
Illustrations copyright 1959 by Brockhampton Press Ltd"

On the inside back page it has:

"This is the eleventh adventure of the Secret Seven Society. The other books are called ....." (and it lists ten books)

What do you think?
