    Description

    First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

    These eleven very scarce volumes detail 'the number of accidents resulting in death or personal injury known by the police to have been caused by vehicles in streets, roads, or public places'.

    Each volume offers short, statistical tables giving police-recorded street accidents and casualties for a given year, including information on vehicle type (horse-drawn, motor, tram, bicycle, etc.).

    Present here are the individual annual returns for 1911-1918, 1920, and 1922.

    The aim of these annual returns was to inform legislators, local authorities, and the public about accident trends, guide road safety policy, and support debates on traffic control, road improvement, and policing.

    Condition

    In the publisher's original paper wraps. Loosely inserted in a paper portfolio with handwritten title. Ten of the eleven volumes are attached by string at the head of each volume. Light handling marks to wraps, with the odd closed tear to wrap fore edges. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright.

    Very Good
