Description

New York: Taplinger Publishing, 1968. First American edition. Hardcover. Good. 160 pages. Table of Contents. Part 1 General Considerations -- Our Tools; The Nature of Wood; About Woodwork; Shapes and Ornaments. Part 2 Simple Woodwork -- Toys of All Kinds; Musical Instruments; For Party Times. Part 3 -- For Garden and Cellar; Simple Furniture. There are illustrations and black & white photographs throughout the book. The photographs indicate the book is geared for older children interested in woodworking but with adult supervision. "Simple woodwork" is misleading. The projects in the book look more complicated and quite professional. These projects make me think of Eagle scouts working on a badge or along similar lines, but very meticulous Eagle scouts. Cloth-covered boards with the wear expected given age, shelf worn and rubbed in a couple of places. There are several small spots where rubbed through to the board. The book has a slight bow to it such that the back cover doesn't lie flat to the pages when held. Tanning of pages. A small discoloration on inside front cover where a small tag had been but otherwise Interior clean and tight without marks. No dust jacket

Seller rating: This seller has earned a 1 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers.

Home-based, online sales only. I am running out of space to keep my collection of books, but I cannot bypass any chance offered at searching out some interesting venue offering books. I dithered for quite some time over this problem, and went right on buying books, until it occurred to me that I could make room for new purchases if I started selling some of my books. So, here I am, a small business, but offering personal service. Happy to answer questions.
