Description:
London, Rolls-Royce Limited, s.d. [1931].
Large 4to, 36 pp. with black and white illustrations and 7 tipped in colour illustrations of Rolls-Royce cars (with drivers). Sewn, publisher's dark grey wrapper with silver lettering on front cover, tied together with a silk ribbon. Printed on high quality paper, initials and tail ends printed in blue. Only small stain on the back wrapper.
313 x 242 mm.
As might be expected of this company, this is a luxuriously produced trade catalogue to present the 20-25 HP series.
The cheapest model is the "Touring Car Four Seats", which comes at £1848. The Cabriolet-De-Ville Four Seats costs £2044. Even Rolls-Royce was not impervious to the reigning economic climate.
A contemporary hand corrected the printed price for the chassis from £1185 to £1050.
It contains 7 tipped in colour illustrations of Rolls-Royce cars with drivers.
A very fine copy.
