About This Item
1983 first edition hardcover as pictured. A comprehensive review of thimbles with sections on manufacture and materials, country of origin and identification marks. Includes a glossary and bibliography along with many photographs. An essential for the serious enthusiast. Binding is firm. Maroon boards with gold stamping are clean and show minimal shelf wear. Endpapers and text appear clean and unmarked. Would be as very good except for slight mottling of edge of text block. No dust jacket. Your purchase helps support our small village library. s AR
