Condition: My copy of this catalog is used but in very good condition, overall. The binding is tight, both covers and all interior pages are intact. The interior pages have no rips. A previous owner has written prices on the margins of a number of pages. There are also crease marks to the upper right corners of four of the pages. Neither the writing, nor the crease marks, interfere with the legibility of the text or the images. The exterior of the catalog is in very good shape with minor evidence of wear to the edges and ends of the covers and spine. Note: It would have been impossible for me to scan any of the interior pages without altering the condition of the catalog. The image I have used in my listing is from the front cover and shows a detail of A Unique Signed Donald Deskey Three-Panel Lacquered Wood and Chrome Screen "Lysistrata" Designed for the Dining Room of the Gilbert Seldes Apartment from c. 1930 (Lot #187).
