Graham Benjamin David Dodd Lecturer (1 results)

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. The stock and bond investment classic. "Third Printing" stated, but bearing only 1934 copyright date, and unusual thus. A crisp, near-fine binding in dark blue boards with white spine label; NO dust jacket. As the endpapers seem crisper than the bulk of the (slightly age-toned) text block, we conclude this is a competent professional re-bind of a 90-year-old book usually found in black cloth with white spine lettering. "Printed in the United States of America by The Maple Press, Co., York, Pa." There is a quarter-inch brown stain to the fore-edge, and a modest amount of dark blue ink spatter to top page edges. Previous owner has underlined in red pencil the paragraph at page 89 where the authors advise "The security buyer who can afford to take some risk should seek a commensurate opportunity of enhancement in price and pay only secondary attention to the income obtained." Additionally, previous owner has written notes in ink to final blank, reminding himself to check 1945 and 1946 issues of "Chronicle" for Graham's writings on stock prices and on "ways to solve the riddle of mass unemployment." In consideration of all the above, we reduce our overall grade here to "very good." 725 pp. including Appendix and Index. Reduced from $3,150.
