Edition originale
Etat : Fair. Morris, George Ford; Dickey, Robert (illustrateur). First edition. 28p + 72 genealogical tables of leading American and French Standardbred stallions; 5 mounted pls. Skewed; covers rather stained and rippled; some pages damp-stained but overall internally good, clean, and sturdy. Further condition details on request. In Italian. An enormous and sumptuous production, printed by letterpress (partly in red). The first part surveys many foundation sires and their lines. The second part contains detailed 5-generation pedigrees, chiefly of mid-20th-century stallions. These tables are dated 1948 and 1951. The plates are by George Ford Morris (Mambrino King), Robert Dickey (Hambletonian 10), and others. Very scarce; WorldCat locates only 3 copies, all in Italy. Very large and heavy (14 x 19 inches); shipping/handling will be extra. Please keep this in mind when ordering. As is, priced accordingly. Hardcover (skewed from size but sturdy).
