Author: Percival Marshall (general editor)
Publisher: Percival Marshall & Co.
Publication Year: 1928

This book has dark red cloth covers with a mottled texture on the front and back. The title is on the front cover and spine in gilt embossed lettering. There are some light scuff marks on the corners and the top of the spine but no major damage to the covers.

Inside the spine is in relatively good condition, the binding is secure and all pages are present. The pages are mostly clean. There are some rust marks on pages towards the spine, where old staples in the book have rusted away. Apart from these marks there is very little evidence of foxing, nor are there any pencil marks, suggesting that this book spent some time unread on a bookcase.

Overall this book is in very good condition for its age. It would make a great gift for an engineer or hobby model maker.
