About this Item

Three guides from the 1920s or earlier, one, Newquay, might be from the 1940s (and has 2cm closed tear on its spine). These Ward, Lock guides are a trip back in time to days gone by with their wonderful old photographs and vintage advertisements for things like Dr Scott?s Pills for Bilious and Liver Complaints, Roach?s Sea-Sickness Draughts, Viko?s Insect Destroyer, Dr Jimmy Collis Browne?s Chlorodyne, the Voltaire Self Generating Electric Cycle Lamp, Mackintosh?s Toffee de Luxe, the Temperance Permanent Building Society, Jackie Mothersill?s Seasick Remedy, Furniss?s Motor Char-a-Banc Tours, Kolynos Dental Cream, Goerz Tenax Cameras, and many more. The famous red card covers have some wear but are in good condition for their for their age, edges are tanned, pages clean save for occasional spotting or the odd pencil mark, bindings are tight, all b&w and/or colour fold-out maps are intact as best we can tell, some pages folded over. Grading commensurate with age of book. Dispatched from the UK same or next working day. NB: Due to the utter stupidity of Brexit, parcels sent to the EU may incur customs charges.
