Unpaginated but with 48 leaves (96 pages) plus covers. Oblong paperback: H 22.75cm x L 28.25cm. Black paper covers with black plastic comb binding; mild curl towards spine; some edge scuffs/bumps covers; rear cover also has light creases and slight color fading. No publishing date provided but Ketchings issued several editions/printings of this book from at least as early as 1940 through circa 1955; three-line ink ownership inscription on page 1 dated for April 19, 1947 so presumably this copy is circa 1945-1947. First leaf recto (page 1) features undated publisher's imprint of Tom L. Ketchings Company immediately followed on verso (page 2) by essay "Natchez History" by Edith Wyatt Moore. Leadoff images (pages 3-4 respectively) are "Air-View of Natchez Business District" and "New Natchez-Vidalia Bridge Spanning the Mississippi River" (which was built 1938-1940). Otherwise most leaves review Natchez and Adams County landmark structures (residences, churches, etc.) with uncredited b/w photographs on versos and associated explanatory historical-architectural summaries on opposing rectos; book concludes with essay "Jefferson College" on recto (page 95). Interior toning/foxing with a few leaves towards rear having slight edge-wear. Still a very good copy of an uncommon publication.…
