Collection of 50+ Manuals of Map Reading, Photo Reading and Field Sketching, early 20th.C. onwards, mainly 8vo Hb. Together with some other Handbooks. Various formats, HMSO Publications CONDITION REPORT: This Lot is part of a substantial collection of books and ephemera consigned to auction by the Imperial War Museum which represent duplicates of items already in their collection. The material covers the 1st. & 2nd. World Wars, other areas of 20th.C. Military History and more general, related subjects. It will therefore bear evidence of this fact to varying degrees in the form of library stamps, booking sheets etc. Evidence of this provenance varies considerably. A number of books have a standard library binding. A substantial number retain the original binding. In the context of its status as an ex-library collection the condition of individual Lots varies - some might be considered 'poor' (though scarce), most are 'good' to 'very good'. Interested buyers/bidders are advised to make their own physical checks on Lots prior to submitting or making bids well before the day of the sale.
