Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition. 145 pages. A rare surviving copy of this classic Depression-era guide. "Here is a book that gives the devices people have employed to make saving painless. But it is more. It is a philosophy of personal economics - of spending as well as saving, a development of the idea that the act of saving is merely a postponement and enlargement of the act of spending." - from dust jacket. Binding sound. Moderate wear to book which is unmarked but for a tiny ink dot atop front free endpaper. Soiling to text edges. 3"x 2" chunk missing from bottom edge of dust jacket front panel. Other smaller bits of loss from dust jacket which is now preserved in mylar. Surely a special item in light of today's challenging economic environment.
