About This Item
New York: Oxford University Press, 1974. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. Flat signed on the half title page by the author, at the request of this bookseller, many years ago; not personalized to anyone. Unfortunately, Dr. Bartlett passed away at age 95, on December 14, 2015. Volume itself has orange cloth covers with gilt lettering on the spine and front cover. A 487 page work, including an index and some black & white illustrations. Dust jacket is protected in an archival quality cover. The dust jacket has chipping and wear at the head and tail of the spine and at corners and along edges. The dj has age toning on the interior. However, the dj looks quite presentable in its archival quality cover. A quite nice, author signed, copy; available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box.
