Toronto: Ontario Department of Agriculture. Fair. Stapled wraps. 44 p. 24 cm. Sound binding in centre-stapled cardstock covers. Staples are rusty. Both covers have heavy soil and some edge wear. The covers and the fore-edge of the pages have been wet at some point. There is a tiny snag and hole to the front cover. Inside some of the pages have staining and a few show evidence of mildew, although the book has only a very faint musty smell. A booklet written "to provide members and leaders of Potato Clubs a concise, but fairly comprehensive review of growing, marketing, judging and preparation of exhibits of potatoes. The booklet is not dated but predates the 1940's when the clubs were named Boys' and Girls' Potato Clubs. No copies found on WorldCat or the National Library and Archives of Canada websites. .
