Although no publishing date stated, I believe this copy is a 2nd edition, published around 1955, (see ‘Preface to Revised Edition’ … “During the fifteen years since the first appearance of this book…’”). First edition of book was published 1940, hence 1955 for this. ‘Editor’s Note’ (Edwin Smith), states revision aims to be helpful to English readers by giving information on materials available in Britain (earlier version for American readers, so some materials were only available in the US). No dust jacket (blue fabric hardcover). Slight fading and thinning of fabric around bottom edge (see photo). No curling or torn pages. Illustrations in black and white. See photos to read information as above.
