First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. A first edition of this extraordinary reference book. It has an ownership signature of my late father to the front paper. He used it mainly for crosswords later in his life. Clean within but the binding has had a tear at some stage and the wonderful black binding shows some use. Bumping to the corners. It is time for this to be enjoyed by another collector and it a good opportunity at the price.
