Human Interest Library, Midland Press, Chicago. 1920 380 pg 6"x10"x1.5" >2.5 lbs! Hardbound cloth cover. Wear on spine. 1 pg separated from binding, inner hinge joints split in several parts. When trying to match up certain pages to index or contents, structure seemed a little off. First color plate listed is missing tho clean pages proceed in consecutive order. Overall integrity is good & it is JAM PACKED w/cool illustrations!. There are 3 pgs in small print listing the numerous full page engravings & drawings, additional 78 text illus & some color plates contained in book. Extensively covers evolution of earth, sky, planets, rocks, all types of animals, birds, plants, machinery, engineering (lighthouses, ships, more!) Impressive, authentic addition to antique book collection, educational tool or dramatic coffee table decor. Paper crafters can multiply its value many times over by framing its engravings; use in decoupage; journals, etc. Please ask all questions before purchase.
