What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

The first edition of this work. 

Volume I only of a work that eventually reached three volumes.

Illustrated with a portrait frontispiece, and 323 vignette illustrations.

Arranged in seventeen chapters, Levi's guide to billiards includes discussion of potting the white, drag, fine strokes, forcing strokes, and kiss in-offs. 

Undated; dated 1907 via the British Library.

With eight pages of advertisements to the rear.

A charming early twentieth century guide to the popular game.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Bumping to back strip head and tail, otherwise externally excellent. Front hinge strained, but firmly held. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright.

Very Good
