Old Mr. Boston Deluxe Official Bartenders Guide Copyright 1935 ~ 1st edition, 3rd Printing 1936

Compiled and edited by Leo Cotton in collaboration with Old Time Boston Bartenders for Ben Burk Inc. Boston.

Regarding the condition of the book, I believe it to be in good condition for being 84 years old (as of 2020). I am not an expert by any means in book descriptions so I will do my best to describe this. As far as what I can see and understand, I believe this to be accurate. Please contact me with any questions, I will do my best to answer them.

There is a large crease or crack on both the front and back covers but they do not bend. The opposite side of the front cover at the top has paper rubbed off. It was a name marked in pen that I tried to gently erase but as the book is very old, it tore the paper and damaged it instead. I've included a photo to show you. There is also light fraying on the spine edges and wear on the ends. Also light rubbing to the corners. The binding is intact in good condition but the book is still fragile and should be handled with care. The 2nd and 3rd pages have folds at the bottom right. There are also a couple of pages I noticed further in the book that have creases but they are not folded... they may have been at one time. There is light yellowing on the pages as you would expect from a book of this age but the illustrations, print and photos are all bright, crisp and clean.

Because of the age and condition of this book, please understand that I am not accepting any returns so make sure to ask any questions and look at all of the photos very carefully prior to purchase.

I will package this exceptionally well , it will be shipped via USPS Priority mail and will be insured for the amount that you have paid for it. PayPal is my only accepted payment method and you are fully protected with that so please buy with confidence.

The book is on sale at my website audilee.com I won't offer that price here because of the fees.. I have none there.

Though my edition is rare, there are a few others for sale online but you will not find them in this condition and for this price. If you do a search as I did, read their descriptions and view their photos, I believe you will agree with me. 

This is a smoke-free home, but we do have 2 cats so if you have any allergies, please take note of this and ask any questions or concerns prior to purchasing! Thank you.
