Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. An almost indescribable book, illustrated with whimsy by the great novelist Booth Tarkington, this is a collection of farcically fictional antique collecting stories. Please don't follow its advice, as it is definitely tongue-in-cheek. The book, itself, is in very good+ condition with some edge wear and some general wear. The dust jacket is very good+, $2.50 price intact, is marred only by tape residue at the bottom of the back strip.
