About This Item
Seattle: R. L. Polk & Co., Inc, 1914. Hardcover. Good+. 8vo. Pp. 428. Illustrated with several black & white photo reproductions in display advertisements. Copyright September 1914. Green cloth, titles and advertising stamped in red on the spine, red and black on the covers, endpaper and edge advertising, display ads on pale blue leaves. Board edges rubbed and light stains, cut edges minimally age toned, leaves crisp and bright, binding tight. Framed by paid advertising for everything from ice cream to anhydrous ammonia in a splendid variety of type faces, each county's section contains a descriptive sketch with chief political officers, followed by towns (the larger ones with their own sketches) listing names taken from the tax rolls and assessed property values.
