About This Item
Boston: Little, Brown & Co, 1932. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/Very Good -. A very presentable copy of the November 1932 1st edition, in its original dustjacket. Solid and VG+ to Near Fine in a crisp, price-intact ($4.75), VG- dustjacket, with separation of the front flap from the rest of the dustjacket. Very light chipping at the front panel edges as well, in addition to mild soiling to the rear panel and darkening along the spine. Still though, not unattractive and, internally, very clean, with no writing or markings of any kind. Quarto, filled with dozens and dozens of graphs and black-and-white photos.
