About This Item
No dust jacket. No mention of additional printings or editions, so possibly a first. Black fabric covered boards with silver decoration on the front. Yellow/green print on the front and spine. Little wear to the exterior, other than a couple of impact marks on the top edge (see photo #3). A hinge split in the front endpaper (see photo #4) has weakened the binding. Two maps printed on the endpapers. Pages appear clean, tight and unmarked. Book discusses 317 American folk songs, with 100 piano arrangements. A somewhat scarce book, this volume will ship at over three pounds. Excess shipping costs are included in the list price.

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily. Check back frequently to see what's new. -----
