Brian DiMambro- Antiquarian Books, Maps & Prints












Running and Cross -country running. By Alfred Shrubb with 32 plates.
Publ. c.1908, London by Health & Strength.
Nice looking example, overall clean, complete with all 32 photographic plates. Great photos from an early era.
Tiny bumped corners, one page with small corner bottom blank margin edge opened slightly roughly long ago and of no significance.
Paper is gently toned, some corners curled or bent, still clean & sound internally.
The book displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive.
Please review photos for more detail showing how this scarce book survives.
