1952 first edition. Pages are bright and clean but the binding is paper over hardboards and book was not well made. Exterior hinge lines are opening, paper edges are rubbed. The interior hinges are holding but reader should approach with care because while book is a signigicant history of the subject matter the Publishers did not spend enough to bind the book correctly.
