Some ads show books and others show boots, bullets, barracks and beer. There are ads for ship lines and silverware, sunglasses and songbooks, submarines and swords. Ads depict coldcuts, cigars and cement mixers, cabarets, cough drops, gas generators, goggles, plaques, pens and pencils, paper, sewing machines, stuffed toys, motorcycles, foundation garments, fragrances, finger rings, Zyklon, etc. Over 400 period advertisements, 95 ads in full color. Fascinating book, 176 pages. All books are entirely in English unless noted otherwise. I combine purchases and the rate goes way down after the first book purchased. If you have any questions about payment options please contact me. Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I've been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I'll tell you straight off if it's a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it's a bookclub, like university press books. They don't normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher's edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let's face it, most of the publisher's editions these days aren't all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse! Please look at my ebay store where many similar titles are available.
