Field guide with punch-card 'computer' system for identifying bird species from a few "easily observed characteristics".

Paperback, as pictured; two-color cover; riveted swing-out punch cards. Covers lightly rubbed, minor bumping to corners, paper edges a bit tanned. Text clean; 24 pages + 54 punch cards; line illustrations. Size: 3¼" by 7¼".
