About This Item
New York Times Advertising Department Series Number 20. Publisher's green textured wrappers with white printed label, small quarto, pp. 126. Illustrated with over 400 Contest entries. This volume has become a bit of a frail affair over its century of existence. The paper wrappers are bumped and chipped at spine ends and tips. A few random nicks on wrapper and page edges. Additionally, the stapled text block has nearly worked its way loose from the wrappers internally. We predict the fragile bond between wrapper and text block will soon succumb, after which the text block will be simply "laid in" to the wrappers, and we consequently recommend the greatest care in handling and continued storage in the new Ultra Pro sleeve we will provide.
