Item description from seller

Book #4 in the original Tom Swift series, which was comprised of 40 volumes written under the pseudonym Victor Appleton (Howard Roger Garis) published 1910-1941. They were described as "spirited tales [whose purpose was] to convey in a realistic way the wonderful advance in land & sea locomotion & to interest the boy of the present in the hope that he may be a factor in aiding the marvelous development that is coming in the future." First published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1910, this is a later printing of that First Edition, listing to next title in front matter, but to book #32 in rear. In 216 pages & 3 pages of ads for other boys' series in rear, with a glossy frontispiece, this thick 12mo has the tan cloth-covered boards with four-panel illustration around a center circle with title to front cover. Condition is VG: generally quite clean with the occasional spot or smudge. Binding straight & strong, hinges secure. Pages creamy white with light, age-appropriate tanning, heavier around edges, but completely unmarked. Exterior edges & corners show a tad of bumping & rubbing. NO DJ (missing). Our photos depict the EXACT book you will receive from us--never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same Day Shipping on all orders received by 2 pm weekdays (Pacific time); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next business day.…
