About This Item
Smith, Elder & Co, 1913. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Signed. This book has been signed and is from the library of Silas Modiri Molema, author and former National Secretary for the ANC. He died in 1965 in Mahikeng. The pressed boards are shelf rubbed, edge worn and marked, with some light fraying in the cloth along the top and bottom edges of the spine. Despite this, the boards remain strong and square. Internally, the end pages and edges of the pages within are lightly tanned. There are no markings or inscriptions aside from that of Molema, and the pages are crisp, clean and complete. The binding is secure. JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
