About this Item

I've listed as a hardback - but it is in-between! - as the book is in pictorial, paper-covered, thin boards, and could be described as either paperback or hardback! Some marks/creases/rubs/chips to the covers, and a former owner has written his name and location in white (Tippex? ) on the top of the front cover, and lower down his name and address also in white. The spine and front hinge look as if they have been re-glued at some point in the past, but the book is sound and complete. Internally the paper is lightly and uniformly browned with age, but generally is very clean tight and bright with the odd light patch/stain in just a few places. Overall a nice period copy. 30 pages (unpaginated) consisting of b/w Adverts and the half Title, the Title page, the index, etc. Followed by 153 pages. Illustrated here and there in b/w. Delightful! SEE IMAGES. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
