Description:
An excellent (and thus rare) hardback with DJ copy of British author and journalist Daniel Farson's classic book on ghosts aimed originally at older children and young adults. As such, many copies are in average or poor condition due to the amount of re reading at young hands, but not this one! The book covers a great range of ghostly themes, both 'factual' and fictional. These include haunted houses, poltergeists, ghosts at sea, animal ghosts, and ghost hunting. The illustrations are excellent and plentiful. Pages are clean and clear: no inscriptions, no notes, and no underlining. NOT an ex library book. No apparent markings at all on pages, except arguably a little half-hidden blotching to front pastedown/FEP but this is none too visible at all. DJ is unclipped and is excellent: the slightest of shelf wear but otherwise completely intact and the original covers of the cover illustrations are as bright as ever. Boards are very nice, and in fact feature the same illustrations as the DJ. Binding tight.… Read More

Description:
A very nice copy of the first edition (1950) of Tabori's biography of ghost hunter Harry Price. Tabori looks extensively into the life and legend that was Price and his work. VG+/VG- condition. Pages are absent of any inscriptions or notable markings. Only the most slight natural age wear but no foxing or similar marks or spotting: pages are excellent. Boards are clean and tight. Slightest give to spine but no noticeable impact of such. DJ is unclipped and intact: a previous owner has covered it in a form plastic tape-wrapper. This is not a removable covering, however neither is it attached to the book, only to the wrapper itself for protection. A few repair strips of white paper are present as part of this and these perform their function by slightly showing through to complete the very few missing nicks in the DJ. These nicks are mostly at top and bottom of spine on DJ, and a little one in the middle of the spine. One small further small incomplete segment at bottom right of front cover (see all… Read More

Description:
In 1938, on the eve of war, a Nazi expedition set out through British India on a mission sponsored by SS chief Heinrich Himmler himself. Its aim was to find the origins of the Aryan race , high in the sacred mountains of Tibet. Thousands of extraordinary photos were taken, some shown here for the first time. And the inevitable hostility between the Nazis and the British foreshadowed the horrific conflict to come. A fascinating story.
Book is in very good condition. Pages are intact, unmarked and uncreased with just some light tanning. Cloth covers are clean and tight. The dust jacket is unclipped, complete, and in a very good state with just a small indent on the front cover. Now covered in professional removable clear book cover. 422 pp with B&W illustrations, notes, bibliography and index

Description:
A SIGNED scarce first edition of Benham's work looking at the apparent connections between palmistry and choice of vocation. "Shows how any parent can easily select the occupation for which a child is best fitted and prepare him for success". Pages are generally very good with a couple of exceptions: three pages found with some light green underlining (see photo), and two pages have some residue of brown tape for some reason though no stickiness etc (see photo), all others are clean and bright as far as we can see. Front FEP has Benham's signature in an inscription, and a neat personal library plate (see photo). Binding is tight. Rare DJ is good but its major pieces are separated (potentially repairable), with the mylar removable cover keeping it in a good visual shape. A segment is missing on spine (see photo). Many illustrations. Despite the flaws (all in the photos, for openness) noted above, still a good copy of a rare edition. We haven't seen a signed copy of this edition before.
