A propos de cet article

Apparent first edition (NAP, 1937 on the title page of Volume I, 1938 on the title page of Volume II). Very rare two-volume set, I saw only one other for sale anywhere on the Internet. My set is in excellent condition, quite surprising given its age. You can see the covers in the photos. They are exceptionally clean. The gilt lettering on the spines of both volumes is nicely bright. The cover edges are in excellent shape, no rubbing. The cover corners are also in excellent condition, no rubbing except for one speck-sized spot at each of the bottom corners of Volume II. The page edges of both volumes look very good. The pages in both volumes are solidly bound. The covers are nicely, tightly bound. The pages are exceptionally clean in both volumes. Scrolling through, I didn't find any instances of soiling in either. I didn't see any conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases. There is a very light smooth crease off the outer edge of the title page of Volume II. There are no markings in either volume. There is a tiny bookseller label above the bottom corners of the front inside covers in each volume. In one it is green and in the other it is maroon. Interestingly, the labels read 'Harold Reeves, Books & Music, London, England.' There are no other attachments of any kind in either volume. In Part II of Volume I, some of the entries have a tiny pencil dash beside them on the blank margin. They could be erased if one chose to. There are no pencil marks in Part I of Volume I. There is no penciling anywhere in Volume II. Volume II has 318 pages, Volume I has 239 pages. 'Lionel Roy McColvin CBE, was a British librarian. He has been described as 'the dominant figure in British public librarianship' in the mid-20th century and a 'world leader' in the profession of librarianship.'.…

Description de la boutique

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
