Paperback in dust jacket. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. First Edition. Color Photos; Oblong large 8vo 10" tall; 80 pages; 2011 Kehrer Verlag. Oblong format paperback in color pictorial dust jacket. Tightly bound in gray card stock covers with titles in pale gray and block. The color photo dust jacket appears to fold out into a poster image, but was engineered without flaps and possibly applied with glue at the spine by the binder. Naturally, a fust jacket without flaps is going to want to slide off the book when place on the shelf, as there is no anchor at the front edge. This has been the case here as the jacket is a little stressed and worn from sliding off the book. Illustrated with reproductions of the photographer's assembled color photos of landmark touristed sites, and with an essay by Madeline Yale. VG++ in VG- dust jacket. Scarce. Seller Inventory # 53307
