About This Item
Usually, when I have a poor book, it is due to the cover and binding that has failed. This patterned green fabric shows some wear at the edges and corners and darkening over the spine, but really isn't that bad for the age. And there are no hinge splits, so the binding is still remarkably solid. It is the pages, where there are many torn pages, some repaired with tape and some not, and a scattering of stains throughout. This book was quite popular at the Hoquiam Public Library from May of 1929 to June of 1930 before it seems to have been retired. This book is quite rare.
