Old ownership signature (of one Tom Ashton) on titlepage.

Description:
Paris, 1930. Paperback. A large folder, 12x9.5 inch plain printed wraps, containing variously paginated fascicles that are staplebound and are themselves fastened into the wraps with a decorative cord. Presswork on thick matte leaves (quite alkaline) features sepia gravure site photography of (mostly) modernist industrial buildings, plus bridges & roads & houses, all constructed with the company's product (tarpaper, poured layerings, road surfacing). Many diagrams also; these detail construction minutia. Captions and the brief running text entirely in French. Wraps somewhat edgeworn, a little toned and spotted, staples badly rusted while the cord remains sound and decorative. The photos are excellent, clearly reproduced and in clean condition. Laid in find loose leaves that further clarify builders' concerns. All in all, a very good exemplar.

Description:
Hawthorne Victoria: Self-published by the author, 1949. Paperback. 191p., not illustrated per se, but the numerous advertisements provide visuals, a small softbound in 7x5 inch nicely designed wraps. Lower corner-tip has sustained a light bump that affects all leaves, terminal leaf sports an inch-square seller's fiche (Perkins Oriental Books of Pasadena CA), item is otherwise quite sound and clean, and otherwise unmarked. A very good copy. We gather from another entry on the net, that the 1949 annual may have been a one-fer, never again repeated, although editor/publisher Brogden helmed other similar items.
