Shabby and Distressed Vintage Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Books

This lovely children’s book set is a collection of five very worn and distressed beige Hardy Boys books and blue Nancy Drew books. Together they offer a lovely vignette for shelf styling, a photo prop, or baby shower decor. These classics of childhood are evocative of times past and the innocence and joy of a childhood spent reading.

Included in this set:

The House on the Cliff, 1921
The Clue of the Leaning Chimney, 1949
The Secret Panel, 1946
The Secret of the Old Clock, 1930
The Phantom Freighter, 1947

This set is 7.5 x 5 inches.

These books are vintage and what I consider “shabby”, meaning that the books might have loose or missing pages or markings like pen or crayon. Shabby books are meant to look worn, aged, and distressed.
