Milano: Sperling & Kupfer, 1938. First Edition thus. Wraps. Very Good Minus. 8vo. 23 by 15.5 cm. 65 pp. And unpaginated middle section, 33 leaves, with generally four photos per page that are each part of a moving image when the leaves are quickly flipped. In total, eight separate moving images, as the moving manipulation works when flipping forwards, with the recto photos, or backwards, with the verso photos. All of these demonstate diving and swimming technique. Thus with four different moving images vertically arranged, we have a rather novel flip book. Glucker was a German author of other books on various subjects of physical fitness, and this survey first appeared two years earlier in its original German. Condition: moderate wear to cover and age toning of pages. (Inventory #: 005975)
