by Wise, Col. Hugh D.
New York, NY: Derrydale Press, 1937. Book. Good+ condition. Hardcover. First Edition. Quarto (4to). xviii, 189 pages of text. Original green hardcover cloth binding with gilt lettering and shark decorations, heavily faded on spine and extremities of boards. Limited to 950 copies printed, of which this is #298. Illustrated with 51 historic photographs, showing various species of sharks, fishing gear and equipment, and how to fish for them. Bottom edge of spine and part of boards show a minor stain from exposure to water, which in turn very slightly affects some of the final pages, but it is so close to the hinge of the binding that it can hardly be seen. No odor. Otherwise, a tight and attractive book.. (Inventory #: 006167)
