Manuscript / Paper Collectible
Pamphlet. Unpaginated, about 32 pages, illustrated with diagrammatic or line-drawn plates each showing an abundance of related ammo outlines (startlingly various). Softbound, title page in blue and black, a fine-press treatment on splendid paperstock (staplebound, but so be it), untrimmed text leaves, cover of dark-blue textured stock with titling in silver-foil. Handsome pamphlet format measuring 10.5x8 inches. Booklet has tiny corner-tip turns and faint sunning to spinefold, the only blemishes. Item is provided with a minimalist colophon on copyright page. Sound, clean and unmarked: very good to fine condition.

Manuscript / Paper Collectible First Edition
Pamphlet. 31p., a fine-press treatment on splendid paperstock (staplebound, but so be it), rubricated titlepage, pamphlet format; features seven plates each displaying numerous edged weapons (no lances, sorry), rifles and amazing pistols, some with author's personal experience of handling. A rather pedestrian-looking revolver is his favorite. Booklet has a lower-corner-tip bump, remarkably the sole blemish to its yapp- or clerical-margined design, which is provided with a minimalist colophon. Sound, clean and unmarked: very good to fine condition.
