Hardcover, original full leather binding with black and red labels to spine. The reason for the poor condition grading is because the front cover and first few pages (up to, and including the title page) is detached from the rest of the book. The binding of the remaining pages is secure and text pages are tight. The several pages that have broken loose are all still attached to the front board. The rear board is still attached though only held on by the binding string. No signatures or bookplates present, no library markings. Tissue guard between the two illustrations acting as frontispiece is still present and attached. Only evidence of handwriting found in book is on the front end page where you can just make out where some prices were once written in red and blue pencil.

Baltimore, MD: F. Heath Coggins & Company, 1929. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, blue cloth boards with gilt text on front and spine. Twice signed with the name Andrew W. Mellon on the half title page. These signatures do not appear to match the signatures on Treasurer documents so the authenticity cannot be verified. Cloth has minor soiling and spotting but the reason for the lower condition grade is the front board has a crease the lower right which is caused a wrinkling the paper as well as the front pastedown. Internal binding is good, no hinge issues at boards but there is a bit of webbing showing at page 192. Pages are toned due to age and there are a few scattered smudge marks and foxing spots, though nothing serious. Front end page shows evidence of handwriting which is been erased but you can still see the residue. No other markings noted, no bookplates, no library markings.
