Item description from seller

8vo., First Edition, with plates and illustrations in the text; original buff boards printed in black, brown cloth back, upper board lightly age-soiled else a near fine copy. With neat personal name stamp on front paste-down. The original, pre-war, edition of the second of a series of fourteen ARP Handbooks published by the Home Office (ARP Department) at the outbreak of WWII and covering many aspects of air raid precautions. Later versions were issued in pamphlet form with the title 'First Aid and Nursing for Gas Casualties'. Despite the number issued surprisingly few appear to have survived in this condition. S.O. Code: 34-229-2. VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION.
