About this Item

Fourth Printing. Signed and Inscribed by by the dedicatee's father Baron von Falz-Fein. 'Baron Eduard Oleg Alexandrowitsch von Falz-Fein (born 14 September 1912) is a Russian-born businessman, journalist, public figure and sportsman from Liechtenstein. He served as a "sports diplomat" who initiated the Olympic movement in Liechtenstein and was vice president of Liechtenstein Olympic Committee in the mid-1930s. In 1951 and from 1953 to 1973, he was President of the Liechtenstein Cycling Association. He was born in Gavrilovka, Kherson Oblast. Falz-Fein funded much of the research on the identification of the Romanov family He is a cousin of the late Olympic bobsledder Eduard Theodor von Falz-Fein.' If you noticed the 'is' in the description that's because Mr. Falz-Fein is still alive at 105. Good life being a Barron. If you're looking to buy a signed copy of this book, this may be the one. It appears to have been treated like royalty. Take a look at the photographs of the covers. They are exceptionally clean. They don't show any wear. The book is very solidly bound. The gilt lettering on the front is very bright. The interior of the book is close to perfect. I didn't see any soiling anywhere. There aren't any markings. There aren't any attachments. And with the exception of the Baron's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The only imperfection: a tiny crease at the tip of the bottom corner of the last page. The dust jacket is what sets it apart from a few of the others similar books. You can see it in the first few photographs. It is very clean. It has almost no wear at all, just a little crinkling at the top edge of the spine. There are no tears on the jacket. It is not clipped. The flaps are in very good condition. The jacket will be fitted into a protective cover. Seller Inventory # 001708

Store Description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.
