Item description from seller

First Edition (NAP). This 404 page book is in really nice condition, particularly taking into account its age. It is also quite rare. I'm seeing only one other copy for sale on the Internet. You can see the red covers in the photos. The front cover has a few small areas of discoloration. The top edge of the spine has very light fraying. The red of the spine is somewhat faded. The gilt lettering there has very light fading, but is quite legible. There is speck-sized rub-through at the front corners. The general condition of the edges and corners is very good. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout. The inside covers and end papers are a slightly lighter red color. They are in excellent condition and very clean. There is a tissue guard protecting the frontispiece, a photograph of James R. Murphy. Both the frontispiece and tissue guard are in very good shape and very clean. There is one other illustration, a photograph of a rather large class in the James R. Murphy Real Estate School. That illustration is also in excellent condition. The pages are exceptionally clean. I'm not seeing any soiling as I scroll through them. I'm also not seeing any creasing. There are no markings. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. Credit for the excellent condition of the book goes only slightly to me. I've owned it for less than a decade. The book came from the library of former Assistant Secretary Of War and High Commissioner of Postwar Germany, John J. McCloy. He did not write his name in the book.…

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.…
