Description:
Publisher's blue cloth with spine lettering and profile silhouette gilt, octavo, pp. 278. Frontispiece and 7 additional black and white plates inserted. The title page bears the imprint of Minton, Balch and Company, but the spine says Putnam. Confusion regarding this matter may be cleared by realizing that Minton and Balch, founded in 1924, merged with G. P. Putnam's Sons in 1930. This edition seems to have been published during the transition? Book condition is GOOD with shelf-bumping of bottom board tips, instances of mild foxing, and dust-jacket flap offsetting. Price-clipped dust jacket GOOD with chips at spine ends and flap fold points. Rear panel shows shelf soiling more readily than if publisher had chosen a darker color than beige. Jacket now in protective Brodart.

Description:
Stapled wrappers, octavo, pp. 14. Fourteen pages of World War ll military personnel with information particulars divided into columns with headings such as Name; Station; Home; Leave; Date of Rank; Revert to Inactive Status dates; and more. Looking over the many names among these pages. it occurs to us that a great deal of genealogical research might be done by a hobbyist or other interested party, particularly as concerns Women in the Military. On page 10, for example, is a 2D LT Mary Virginia Fletcher of Castlewood, VA, who was for a time at Ft. Bragg. Searching the Library of Virginia's online Virginia Chronicle, we located in the Lebanon News, Volume 115, Number 6593, 22 November 1995, a short biographical / autobiographical entry concerning the Lieutenant and some of her reminiscences of service. The paper used for printing this item has become somewhat limp over the decades, but it is safely stored now in a clear protective display sleeve with white card-stock backing board.
