Item description from seller

So this is interesting: this was the author's own copy. She signed her name at the top of the front inside cover and affixed her own bookplate (a rather dramatic one) containing her printed name right below it (see second photo). This book is an updating or revision (with added chapters) of a book she and two co-authors (Estelle H. Davis and Adele L. Carll) wrote in 1931. That book was titled Voice and Speech Problems. This will be the Only signed (so to speak) copy of either of the two books for sale on the Internet. You can see the blue covers in the photos. They are clean and in pretty good shape. One bottom corner has a small spot of rub-through, the other a little bit of fraying. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover. The pages are nicely tight. I'm scrolling through them now without seeing any soiling. I'm also not seeing any turned-down corner creases or dogeared corners. There is a small vague crease off the top edge of some latter pages, quite minor. There are no markings in the book. There is no writing other than the author's signature. No attachments other than the author's bookplate. There's a small shadow of what was likely a tiny sticker on the rear side of the blank rear end paper. There's very little wrong with this book. I'm guessing the previous owner had a good deal of respect for its author.

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.
