Fine. No dust jacket. was issued. A never-read copy of the definitive book on the postal systems of BC and Vancouver Island I am not sure how to grade this book. It is that scarce first edition with the statement on prelims "Of this First Edition Five Hundred Copies have been Printed. This is No. 17" These low print runs are typical of publications by the archives in twenties and thirties. One run of a Vancouver book was as low as five copies. It also seems to have been the practice of author or archivist to have given some copies to local notables. This copy has turned up with a small collection of archive books: it has never been read-the signatures are not cut open. It is in the usual brown (is it linen? ) boards with bevelled edges. Page edges untrimmed. The grading is difficult because although never read, it has been on the recipient's shelf for almost ninety years and has at back two spots of missing color. One spot is pin-head size. One spot (2mm) spot on title page. The other is almost two pinheads. NO corner bumps. I consider the book fine but I am not a professional. It is THE DEFINITIVE book on the subject of British Columbia's and Vancouver Island's early mails; covers, stamps, post offices et.15 sepia plates
