Sobre este artículo
San Francisco: The Book Club of California (Grabhorn Press), 1950. VG with minimal rubbing to edges of cover, with interior in excellent condition. Quarter red leather with red and black decorative boards. Only 375 copies were printed (this one is SIGNED ON REAR ENDPAPER BY THE GRABHORNS, whose press made the volume), and is considered by most critics to be the best of Harlow's books. There are 39 maps (with detailed explanations), 140 pages and an extensive bibliography. This is an important, impressive and scarce work. There are detailed notes to each of the h istorical map accounts..

Sobre The Prime Meridian: Antique Maps & Books
The Prime Meridian: Antique Maps & Books is owned and operated by Joel & Deborah Kovarsky. We first opened in 1998, but have had a decades-old interest in old maps, books, and paper, stemming from a comparable long-standing interest in how knowledge is used. Our business is run via the internet. We do not run an open shop, however we do welcome visitors by appointment only. Before attempting a visit, please contact us. We are a specialty business, dealing in antiquarian maps and related books (atlases, history of cartography, selected reference books, etc.). Please feel free to contact us for specific inquiries.
