Circa: 1923
Condition: Very Good
Publisher: Theo. Audel & Co, New York
This is a clean set of Audels with a complete set of 4 volumes printed and copyright in 1923. This is a first edition, first printing, complete 4 volume set! One of my favorite reference book sets for information on building and carpentry technics from the 1920's. The 1st volume is very good for information on tools of that days and how to care for them. Each book is 5" x 6.7" has a black leather like pressed cloth semi soft boards, gold gilt spine lettering; pages are tipped in gold gilt on all three sides. All are in very good condition, covers are clean, spines are tight and straight. Minor bump noted on volume 1 front cover top and bottom center, about 1/16" long. Pages are clean, no tears, scribbling, or stains. Good tight bindings. A nice set of books covering tools, steel square, cutting tools, saw sharpening, nails, screws, joinery, furnature, math, drawings, estimating, house and roof framing, layout, foundations, doors, windows, stair building, millwork, painting, etc. Lots of good information! A very nice first edition set!
