Vintage hardback book in dustwrapper "The Kidnapped King" by Ralph Arnold, published by Blackie in 1937.  Some creasing and a few small tears to the edges of price-clipped dustwrapper, a few old damp-marks to the light-brown boards, an undated school prize message (Special Prize for Drawing) on f/ep, frontispiece is loose but still present.  Otherwise a good clean tight copy of this hard-cover adventure story for boys.  The story deals with a young man who stumbles on a plot involving a central European prince who has been kidnapped by Communists and hidden in England .  224pp, 3 b&w illustrations.
