Sobre este item
Washington, DC: Government Printing Office, 1913. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, original green cloth boards decorated in gilt on front and spine. Exterior shows quite a bit of smudge and soiling and there is a library reference number written on the spine. The internal binding is good and text pages are tight. The front pastedown contains an old bookplate stating the book was a gift to the Harrisburg Public Library from the Supervisor of Public Documents. There is also a small price penned in the corner on the opposite page. The rear pastedown is clean with no library pocket but the opposite end page shows a reference number written in the upper inside corner. Text pages show toning due to age as well as the paper reacting with the glossy plates, which is darkened the pages. There are a few smudge marks present on the title page and the first few pages. The title page also has a small embossed text (near the word Bulletin 80) which also states Harrisburg Public Library, Harrisburg, PA. No other library markings found in the book. There are numerous foldout plans and layout in the rear of the book, all appear to be in very good shape with no markings or tears.

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.

Sobre 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.
