About this copy
This is the 1958 edition of Reece Winstone's photographic survey of Bristol, featuring a preface by John Betjeman and around 200 photographs of the city taken, written, designed, and published by Winstone himself. No printing statement is present beyond the 1958 date, so the specific printing this copy represents cannot be confirmed with certainty. Originally issued in illustrated paper wrappers; this copy is presented in its original pictorial softcover binding, with period advertisements for local Bristol businesses bound in at the rear.
Condition
- Book
- Fair – Paper-covered boards show noticeable wear including rubbing and soiling to the covers, wear at the spine head and corners, and a small tear/crease to the front cover image. Text block appears complete and sound in the photographed pages.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
