Auction #33: "Exploring Caves" by Polly Longsworth (1959)

Postby Larry E. Matthews » Dec 7, 2011 5:58 pm

This is a very nice, Hardbound book, that is 176 pages long. It is aimed at beginners, probably the 12 to 16 age range, I would think. No photos, but some nice Black and White Drawings. It was published in 1959.

The Dust Jacket is in great condition. I'll start this at $2 and shipping and handling in a padded mailer is an additional $4. All bidding must be in even $1 amounts. No International Shipments.

Auction starts today, Wednesday December 7, and ends next Wednesday, December 14 at 8:00 pm. Good luck !!!

As an interesting note, inside the Dust Jacket is the Original Price: $2.75 !!! Imagine trying to buy a NEW Hardbound book today for $2.75. Inflation is insidious. It isn't that noticeable from year to year, but decade by decade, it is incredible.
