Seller's Description:
Photographs and Other Illustrations. Very Good. Excellent example of the sensationalistic journalism prevalent among pre-World War I American publishers as well as the book designer art common to that period, this work nevertheless retains some importance as a firsthand record of the beginnings of the U.S. mail and westward expansion, being derived from many contemporary sources. Original light gray cloth with design of a pony express rider on his horse in brown, black and white. Copiously illustrated with uncommon photographs and period engravings. Light dust offsetting to covers; minor 1/2" round light amber stain spot above the first S in the title, probably cleanable; else a better than very good, tight, clean and unmarked copy, free of color flaking or chipping and with all edges solid and free of wear. Scarce in this nice condition.
