Green cardboard covers with dark green cloth spine. Titles in black. Small octavo. [vi] 385pp, (4) with ten maps. Nine folding topographical maps and one on title page, detailing the route and terrain of the Maine portion of the Appalachian Trail. Although the binding is very tight the cover shows wear and possible exposure to the elements as there is a light tide mark to the very edges of the text block. (Text and maps unaffected). This guide was published shortly after the completion of the Appalachian Trail in August 1937 and served as an early official guide for hiking the Maine section.

Staple Wraps. Condition: Very Good. The collection of hiking accounts by George H. Witherle, renamed thus and mimeographed by the Maine ATC in 1950 this remains a very uncommon publication.

A nice example of an exceedingly scarce early AMC/MATC item.

No Binding. Condition: Near Fine. Near Fine in the original brass clip-bound stiff card wrappers. Another (somewhat) confusing edition in a long line of such guides put out by the ATC and the Maine ATC. This 'Second Edition' was partially reprinted from the original 1935 (different title) & 1942 editions compiled and edited by Myron Avery and printed by the Maine Development Commission in 1935 & the MATC in 1942/47. The actual first edition of this title as it is published by the Maine ATC, was published/printed in stalpe-bound stiff card wrappers in 1942 and the revision sheets in 1947. Simply put, this is the first time this title was published in this format bound with stiff card covers and an expandable interior format clipped together with 2 brass clios. The design is to make it easier to separate certain sections and/or maps for viewing and transport, I surmise. The ATC did this with many of their guides during the 1950's through the 1980's. The current book has much added including 2 updated maps. 'The Traveller' is bound-in and in fine condition, 1950. The Katahdin Region is very large and is NOT bound-in, it eas purchased separately. It is entitled "KATAHDIN REGION MAP" issued by the Maine Appalachian Trail Club, Inc., 1951. Fourth Edition (Preliminary (Revised) One-Color) 1951. Deliniator: Kenneth Houck. It will frame quite nicely. App. 200 text pages (comprised of Chapters; 4-12 of the Guide to the Appalachian Trail in Maine.) Pagination; 4 p Supplement, Frontis, I-VI toc, 35-247 (Chapters 5-10), 507-510 (Daicy Pond Section) 7p index. Very Scarce thus.

No Binding. Condition: Near Fine. Yes Another Confusing Edition In A Long Line Of Such Guides Put Out By The Atc And The Maine Atc. This 'First Edition' Was Partially Reprinted From Avery's 1935 Edition 'Mount Katahdin In Maine', Compiled And Edited By Myron Avery And Printed By The Maine Development Commission In 1935. This, The Actual First Edition Of This Title As It Is Published By The Maine Atc, Was Published/Printed In Staple-Bound Stiff Card Wrappers In 1942 And The Revision Sheets In 1947. Simply Put, This Is The First Time This Title Was Published In This Format Bound With Stapled Card Covers. I Believe This Was An Editors Copy As There Are Revision Notes In Pencil And Entire Pages Crossed Out, Again In Pencil, And Revision Pages And Sentence Slips Of Paper Glued In. Map # 3 Is Dated 1942, Map # 3A Is An Added Map Dated 1945, Map 3B By Rheta Morrison Is Also Dated 1945. This Is Quite An Interesting Find As It Has Unpublished Revisions Predating The Second Edition Of 1950. The Index Has Been Stspled To The Inside Of The Rear Cover, Rather Than Bound In. Some Silverfishing And Glue Ghosts Are Present.
