Titlepage + [6]pp "to the reader" & "instructions"] + 362pp [recte 658]. The pages are uniformly lightly tanned with some pale foxing. There is a needle sized hole in the lower middle part of the pages up to page 36 but this does not prevent reading the text. Also a neat "repair" to two margins on the verso of the titlepage however this seems unecessay as there are no tears to any edge of this page! There are 5 other marginal repairs none of which touch any text. Presumably these were all done by Rudolf Jager from Bremen who added endpapers with his date of binding given as 1930. Bookplate of Heinz Lahusen to front pastedown as well as a small label "Jagd-B Nr.154" to the lower corner. 1 volume.…
