About this Item

Minor edge and corner wear; lightly scuffed and scratched; some light shelf wear; ex-library with the usual library markings; overall a nice used copy! Black and white illustrated cover with black lettering. 172 historical and informative pages nicely enhanced by black and white illustrations! "Temporary exhibitions may be found wherever people congregate. Museums and galleries are logical locations, but so are libraries, banks, shopping centers, churches and synagogues, schools, and building lobbies. This book was written and illustrated as a practical and handy guide for the people behind the scenes of every exhibit installation. While the traveling, or loan exhibition is used as a guide, you may apply the principles and information provided here to your own situation." ----------- from the Introduction.
