252 pp. Illustrated from photographs by L.F. Deming. 11x8½, gilt-lettered blue cloth, pictorial cover label. Fifth Impression.
Donovan & Murdoch 6170; Murdoch 37 - "An unusually handsome book of instruction in which Mr. Barnes was the model for more than 300 illustrations. It was also unusual for being the first book in which photographs were reversed so left-handers could compare their swings with that of a professional."
Condition:
Light rubbing to covers and extremities, pictorial cover label heavily foxed and spotting with some nicks and a couple small scratches, 4" minor scratch to rear cover, page edges somewhat soiled; front hinge cracking, endpapers faintly foxed, previous owner's signature to front free endpaper, else still very good.
