Previous owner's bookplate on FFEP. The former owner of this book had the interesting habit of inserting, sometimes "tipped in" - sometimes loose, newspaper articles, photos, postcards, etc relating to the book. There are a few such items in this book. There are also some hand written notes. Whilst you could say this is damaging the quality of the book, it also adds a lot of interesting context around the subject matter so I have not attempted to remove these items. Please ask if you would like more information or photos.
