Item description from seller

109pp, illustrations, boards. The contents are in very good order with a closed tear to the last page and a scored out name to the front paste down. One later amendment has been pasted in. The boards are a little foxed and the titles are faded. Notwithstanding the long title, this is in effect a very early GWR rule book (the earliest we have seen), but not a first edition as 'all former editions are hereby cancelled'.

Store description

A member of the Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association (PBFA), I have been a nearly full time bookseller since the mid 2000s working from home in Bristol. I concentrate on books on transport (mainly railways), industrial history, maritime, topography, the Beatles & other groups from the 1960s and interesting ephemera. I particularly specialise in official publicity of the British railway companies. I sell on ABE, on eBay under the moniker 'mr.publicity' and at book and transport collectors' fairs. I keep a modest stock of quality material which is constantly changing - I spend a good deal of my time travelling around the UK seeking out and acquiring new stock.
