  • Hardcover
Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, Ltd., 1974 Book. Illus. by John Willard. Very Good. Hardcover. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Green cloth on boards. Grubby DJ complete, with short tears and chipping. A surprising gathering of old houses with gingerbread, which the author calls "barge boards." Even more surprising to me is the fact that I didn't recognize any of them although I lived in various parts of Ontario for 25 years. Previous owner's name. Approx. 140 pp. Large format will need extra postage..
