About This Item
435 pages, plus 8 pages of photos. Book is signed on the FFEP, "Sincerely, Ralph Chaplin Tacoma USA." The owners name "Fred W. Stiegler" also appears in ink on the FFEP with the date 1948. Fred Stiegler also appears in a 1976 oral history recorded by the Public Library in Tacoma, WA where he talks about the strike of 1935 lumber industries in Tacoma, and the I.W.W..
Dust jacket is in two pieces, missing the front flap, spine, and portions of the front.
The covers show mild bumping on the corners, with rub marks and some fraying on the spine ends.
Pages are mostly clean, however, there is some underlining and annotation in ink. Although this may devalue the book, the annotations are first hand accounts by Fred Stiegler of the IWW and labor struggle in Washington State.
