This VG quality and likely first print book was copyrighted in 1920 and is published by Lothrop, Lee & Shepard; it is 8" tall with 361 numbered pages of text followed by 7 unnumbered pages of ads. This book has ribbed medium blue cloth with all lettering in black; the front panel has a 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" photo applique as well as a red, blue and black background of a factory scene; the spine has a 4-1/4" tall image of a bi-plane flying over what looks like tall radio towers. The book is square, very clean, free of corner bumps and edge dings; the head and heel of the spine are bumped with a slight amount of color loss. The bottom edges have very little wear, though both lower corners have color loss. The spine is clean and the lettering is still very clear; very little of the color is gone from the image. The front panel illustration is clean and has slight wear but no serious damage. Except for a penciled inscription on the FFEP, the interior is free of writing, stray marks, stains of any sort and page damage of any type. Both hinges are quite strong and not damaged in any fashion. The text paper is modestly toned and is quite flexible. The book has no remainder mark and is not a former library book. It is profusely illustrated with photos on coated paper. The list at the front of the book lists through this title and the list at the rear of the book lists through the eighth title of this series.
