129p. Stiff wrappers. Rather enjoyable reading for those of us who adhere to the old school of book collecting and bibliography. This little pamphlet was published in a series called 'The Young Collector' which also includes works, according to the listing on the inside front wrapper, on silkworms, seaweeds, reptiles and postage stamps. It does include an interesting chapters on books to buy, useful bibliographies, large paper copies, made up copies and much more as well as brief outlines on famous printing presses. A little shaken, but still in good condition.
