Description: This is the illustrated 1944 *first edition* of CATCHING TROUT by T H Barnes. Lucid vintage guide to fly fishing and trout appealing to both youthful novices and the experienced angler — enhanced by simple diagrams and Joy Barnes’ evocative scraperboard illustrations … Hardback, around 4.5 inches by more than seven tall, is bound in its original pictorial dust jacket, slight wear but unclipped and intact, over its publisher’s blue cloth covered boards, faded, lower board blind-stamped as originally issued with titling to the back-strip protecting the spine in original gilt. First edition published by Herbert Jenkins, London, in 1944. Free from prior ownership inscriptions and permanent markings to the text. Although interior condition is overall good, because this original letterpress book is old, it does display minor signs of use and age — such as the usual discolouration to old paper — consistent with a printed object of this vintage. All 111 pp main text are complete and otherwise correct. Your book, anywhere within the UK, is sent to you FREE. Feel free to contact seller with any questions, or if you'd like to examine it in person at a mutually convenient time. Bid with confidence to secure.
