About This Item
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1919. Hardcover. Fair. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, maroon cloth boards show scuffing and soiling, spine has a three-quarter of an inch tear at the bottom center, the upper outside corners of both boards have a dampstain present. The stained is not affect the pages in the front but you can see spots on the back pages starting at about page 410. The front and rear interior hinges are good at boards, but there are spots within cracks are showing, though this is more of a pulling issue in a cracking issue. The illustration at page 218 sticks out just a hair more than the rest of the pages. No signatures or bookplates, no library markings, no handwriting found. Pages are toned due to age and there is some foxing present, though this appears to be mainly around where the illustration pages are at, and is due to the two different types of paper reacting with each other. This is the 1919 printing, as stated on the title page.

We always take extra care in packaging and shipping. Books are typically wrapped in packing paper or bubblewrap before packaged in a sturdt shipping box. All orders, even those shipped by US Media Mail, will be given a USPS tracking number which will be sent to the buyer so they will know when to expect arrival. Please let us know if there is a book with incorrect or missing photos. We recently moved the inventory to Biblio and a title or two may have had issues with the photos being transferred over.
Yesterday's Book shop is owned and operated by a disabled veteran. Due to my limitations, I often have to rely on speech-to-text software to list the books. If the description has typos ("and pages" instead of "end pages", pace downs instead of pastedowns, guilt instead of gilt, etc,) PLEASE let me know so I can correct the listing. The software spells words by phonetics and can make errors that I may not catch.
There is a 30 day money back guarantee if the book arrives damaged or is not as described. Please contact us prior if you have any issues with your purchases and we will make sure you are taken care of.

About Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)
Yesterday's Book Shop is an independent, family-owned establishment. The store first opened in 1966 under the name Collector's Corner and was located in Western Maryland. The Collector's Corner dealt mainly in books but also sold stamps and assorted ephemera. In 1975 the name was changed to Yesterday's Book Shop when the store only offered books and printed matter. In the early 2000s the brick and mortar store was closed and now we only sell online.
