Item description from seller

A Good, internally clean, solid cloth bound set of three volumes: 1930-1932, 1932-1934, 1934-1936. Volume one is quite faded and has a 1 1/2 inch tear in the cloth at the edge of the spine. All volumes show general light wear. Names in ink and colored pencil on endpapers. The NPFA was founded in 1925 but was granted a Royal Charter as a charity in 1933 by the Duke of York (later George V). These volumes contain many contributions by and photos of various Dukes and Earls and the like. There are some photos of children designed to solicit contributions. They also contain some interesting photos of newly developed fields and the regular folk doing the work of leveling ground.
