About This Item

Greenville, IL: De Moulin Bros. & Co., 1916. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good+. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Softcover, original catalog complete with order blank and even the mailing envelope. No copyright date listed though there is a tipped-in card on the terms and conditions page which is dated March 6, 1916. In addition, just below the catalog number on the front cover somebody penciled in Nov 24, 1916. Exterior shows spotting and soiling along with small stains, tears and small holes. Edges and corners show bumps and creases along with minor tearing. Upper and lower spine edges are chipped as well. Internal binding is good, stable bound pages are tight and unmarked. No signatures or bookplates, no handwriting (other than the front cover), no library markings etc. The catalog contains 132 pages of pranks, costumes, uniforms, Masonic Lodge furniture, badges and other paraphernalia. There is also a 36 page section in the rear titled "Suggestions and Directions for introducing and using our Burlesque and Side Degree Paraphernalia". The only page found with an issue was the very last text page, XXXVI, which has a chip and decrease around the lower outside corner. The rear wrap is also lifting a bit from the last page as this normally covers the stapled area.

Terms of Sale

Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)

Purchases will ship by US Media Mail or Priority Mail (if buyer selects) and higher priced items may have insured placed on the order and will typically ship within one business day. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 5 lbs., but only in unusual cases. Insurance is available upon request though we normally place insurance on any item of $75 or higher at no additional cost to the buyer. Non-US sales will ship by First Class International or Global Priority. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 4 lbs.

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.

All of the book pictures were taken at the time the book was listed and we never use generic or stock photos in any listing. If you would like additional photos or information on any listing please let us know and we will be more than happy to comply.
