About This Item
World Manufacturing, 1884. Decorative Cloth. Fair. Covers somewhat worn and soiled, spine faded, inscriptions on flyleaf and second endpaper, rear hinge paper split but holding well. Nearly 800 pages, 50,000 references, 1200 illustrations. Amazing what they knew back then - and what they didn't.
