Item description from seller

Demy duodecimo, [15.5cm/6.2inches], full Mystic blue pictorial cloth, sans dust jacket, pp. 147. Illustrated with b-w halftones and pen & ink sketches; glossary subsequent to text. Lightly, -and quite comfortably-, worn on extremities, [i. e. corners]; otherwise in exceptionally good condition. A little gem of a book. . The monthly Rudder Magazine for Yachtsmen was first published in 1891 and ceased publication in June 1977. The magazine’s founder and first editor, Thomas Fleming Day, born Somerset, England in March 1861, died 19 August 1927 at his home in Harlem, New York, was working in 1890 as a boat salesman for a shop on Dey Street in New York which also produced a catalog of nautical wares. His employer thought that "getting out a little paper" and charging for advertising space would be more lucrative than producing all those free catalogs. Mr Day obliged. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. (17780) Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs.
