About this Item

This is the second edition, ninth impression. The first edition was published in 1938. There was a third edition published in 1954. The third edition is the most common. I don't think there are any copies of the 1943 edition for sale on the Internet. The least expensive first edition from 1938 is selling for $85.00. No other copy from any year for sale on the Internet is signed. So once listed, this will be the Only signed copy for sale.The signed inscription is from the author. It reads: 'To George Mayforth, yours for better understanding of timestudy, Phil Carroll.' Wow, are these covers in nice condition. Take a look at the photos. 1943! As you can see they are exceptionally clean and the gilt lettering on the spine is super-bright (never wrote that before). There really isn't any conspicuous wear. The edges and corners look very good, just a little crinkling at the spine ends. The page edges look very good. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover. The pages are very nicely tight throughout. The covers are very tightly bound. There is one brownish spot off the bottom edge of the signed first front end paper, and a similar spot can be seen just adjacent to it on the front inside cover. That may be the only soiling to be found anywhere in the book. I'm scrolling through the pages without finding anything else. These pages are also in excellent shape. I'm not seeing any creasing. There are no markings. No attachments. And with the exception of the signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. There are a good many illustrations, charts, tables, etc. to be found throughout the book.
