Hardcover. Condición: Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Poor. New Edition. A sound clean copy of the New and Revised edition, 1953, having originally been published in 1928. Still pretty scarce in its own right. The green cloth boards are clean, with clear title lettering on the spine. That said the cloth looks a little patchy in places, particularly so due to sun fading on the spine and around the edges and extremities. There's a previous owner address label on the front fly leaf and a small neat name inscription of the same owner on the reverse of that page but, otherwise, there are no obvious marks. The page block edge looks a little toned. The dust jacket has definitely seen better days. It has been patched up in the past with selotape which has left glue yellowing residue in many places especially on the inside of the jacket. There is a chunk unfortunately missing at the foot which does not effect title lettering. The front cover remains largely intact. The back cover and the flaps look more or less whole and it's not price clipped. Now protected from further damage (and held together) by a removable jacket sleeve so that the overall effect is actually quite presentable. In all this is still a very decent clean copy of a scarce book. Many other fishing books are available. Photos always sent promptly on request. Nº de ref. del artículo: 012452
