Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine Slip Case. First Edition Thus. True Pre-War First Edition. Complete set of 7 miniature double-sided folding maps mapping Great Britain across 14 distinct regional sections. Contained within the publisher's original small black textured slip box (approx. 4" x 2.75") featuring exceptionally bright, clear green stamped lettering to the front panel and a complete, matching green-stamped Key Map to the rear panel. An absolutely pristine, collector-grade example in Fine condition overall. The original slip box remains structurally sturdy, tight, and robust, with the 7 individual map booklets fitting snugly inside exactly as issued. Each map booklet is bound in clean, crisp, unlettered plain black cloth boards. Internally, the folding maps are in immaculate, Fine condition, retaining their brilliant colour palettes, sharp red Ministry of Transport road indicators, and crisp original folds, completely free from the split junctions, annotations, or finger-soiling that standardly afflicts these pocket road guides. Historical Summary:A beautiful, evocative piece of late-1930s British social and transport history, compiled by the legendary editor and engineer F. J. Camm. Designed explicitly as a practical, lightweight touring companion for the interwar cycling boom, each of the 7 double-sided maps collapses down to a compact 16mo pocket size. Alongside the detailed regional cartography scaled at 8 miles to the inch, each volume includes Camm's signature 'Useful Information for Cyclists' compendium, detailing contemporary cycling laws, railway transit rates, and early national camping regulations. Every effort has been made to verify the presence and pristine condition of all 7 double-sided booklets mapping sections 1 through 14 (encompassing England, Wales, and parts of Scotland). While the regional boundaries and transport data align perfectly with the known 1938-1939 Newnes print states, minor variations in pre-war municipal boundary allocations may exist in the historical plates. High-resolution photographs of the custom green-stamped box panels, the snug interior layout, and several immaculate open maps are fully uploaded as an integral part of this listing for the buyer's exact inspection.…

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating journey into the history of chancel screens, those architectural elements that divide the sanctuary of a church from the nave. The author examines the development of screenwork from its origins in the Jewish Tabernacle, through the early Christian churches, and into the rich and complex forms of medieval architecture. The book explores the evolution of the screen, from simple veils to elaborate stone and wood structures, tracing how changing liturgical practices and the architectural styles of different eras influenced design and function. The book also delves into the symbolism of screenwork, showing how these barriers represented both physical and spiritual divisions within the church. The author examines the use of the roodloft, a gallery often built above the screen, and explores the changing role of screenwork in the post-Reformation period. This book offers a detailed and insightful analysis of the history and significance of chancel screens, providing a valuable resource for anyone interested in medieval architecture, church history, and the symbolism of religious structures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
