Seller: Legacy Books II, Louisville, KY, U.S.A.
Soft cover. Condition: VG. Light gauge paper, pictorial printed wraps, sized about 11 x 15 1/2 inches, profusely illustrated including an abundance of advertisements. Covers generally bright and clean. Contributors include Elizabeth West (The Pale Miss Knight, complete), Emma Howard Wight (A Life For A Life, Chapters I - V), Alice and Claude Askew (At Cross Purposes, Chapters XVII - XXI), Fred M. White (The Telephone Star: Some Of The Experiences Of Keith Marritt Of The Telephone Staff, No. 6, The Case Of The One - Eyed Chauffeur, complete), and Andrew Loring (The Tragedy In The Tower, concluding chapters). From 1869 - 1942, over 70 years, Augusta, Maine was America's mail - order magazine publishing capital with some seventeen titles published there and circulation at its height reaching an estimated three million copies. Magazines were mailed to subscribers nation - wide, and the sheer volume of sales led to the opening of a new post office in January, 1890. The major publications targeted women, particularly women in rural areas, but some also included articles and stories of interest to men and children. Farm and literary magazines were other types published in Augusta. The primary focus for the majority of the magazines was family and home life, and content included down - home advice on family life, decorating, business (raising chickens, for example), personal care, health, fashion, and the latest trends. Reading material included poetry, romantic fiction, short stories, and editorials, but most prominently the magazines offered opportunity (and encouragement) for women to buy the various and sundry items advertised. Contests and competitions were part of the allure, and subscription rates were very cheap (and often not even collected) as the magazines were supported well by the advertisements. The major publishers, E. C. Allen, P. O. Vickery and John F. Hill (who later became Governor of Maine), and William H. Gannett all became very wealthy. Publications included Good Stories, Happy Hours, Hearth and Home, American Woman, Needlecraft, and Farm World, all by Vickery - Hill Publishing Company, Comfort, by Gannett, which was the most successful of the magazines, Fireside Magazine, Peoples Illustrated Journal, the Illustrated Family Herald, Thrifty Farmer, Farming World, National Farmer, Golden Moments, Sunshine, Daughters Of America, and Practical Housekeeper, all by Allen, and later Gannett who took over Allen's publications in 1891. Some of the magazines including the present number were oversized, newpaper - style, and printed in quadruple columns, on cheap paper that did not hold up over time and use, thus, copies are relatively scarce, especially the early issues. Worldcat / OCLC locates only 5 repositories. See Zuckerman, A History Of Popular Women's Magazines In The United States, 1792 - 1995.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. With Twenty Illustrations (glossy B&W plates.) (illustrator). 1st Edition. 1917 first printing, with the words "Presentation Copy" embossed (blind-stamped) in small type vertically down the side of the title page. (Blind-stamping unlikely to show up on our scans.) The UK Internet seller from whom we acquired this copy believed this stamping rendered this volume a "Presentation Copy" worth $80; we don't. The problem is, so far as we can determine, this copy was never actually PRESENTED to anyone. There's NO presentation inscription, NO conveyance or presentation letter laid in, and no signature to be found -- not by the author, not by the publisher, not by the publisher's mail-room clerk, nothin'. Nonetheless, a "very good" first printing of this classic and prophetic work on air power, with minor rub to board corners and some modest foxing to endpapers (and to pages which face the B&W plates, oddly enough), with the glossy B&W author portrait frontispiece still protected by its original tissue guard. And if you believe said blind-stamping to title page triples the value of this book, a great bargain at the price! 262 pp. including Index, followed by 2 pp. publisher's ads. Here reduced from $27.
