About This Item
New York: Hastings House, 1941. Presumed First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good +. Green cloth with gilt letting on cover and spine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; 101 p. The photographs are not black & white, but I believe what are called duotones. They have a brown tone to them. There is little text in the book, mostly just pages of photographs of places along the coast. Book is in very good condition for its age. Lightly edge worn, covers faded and spine and edges sunned. Interior is fine. No dust jacket. The pictures are scans of the actual book and its front end page.

About Trolls Treasure
Home-based, online sales only. I am running out of space to keep my collection of books, but I cannot bypass any chance offered at searching out some interesting venue offering books. I dithered for quite some time over this problem, and went right on buying books, until it occurred to me that I could make room for new purchases if I started selling some of my books. So, here I am, a small business, but offering personal service. Happy to answer questions.
