Pictorial wrappers, stapled. 9 x 12 inch format. 16pp. Some wear to spine and corners, but a very good copy of an extremely fragile and cheaply-produced book. Ownership signature and stamp on front cover. The cover features a picture of Ralph Maddison, billed as "The Premier Canadian Tenor", "The Singing Miner", and "Canada's Greatest Ballad Singer!".

The information presented includes a ground-breaking study of leather workers in medieval Iran.'.…
