Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Softcover catalog from the Dexter Folder Company. Bound in green paper wrappers with embossed lettering and details on the front cover. With a saddle-stapled binding and red cord stitched through the spine. 16 pages. Black & white illustrations throughout. No publication date is stated, but U.S. Patent Office Library stamps on the front cover, title page, and page 7 are dated Oct 13 1914. I would guess that the catalog was printed sometime that same year. There is also a notation written in pencil on the title page, but no other writing or marks throughout. The wraps show light edgewear and the spine has slight chipping. No loose pages. The binding is sturdy and strong. Contents include a description of the No. 190 Dexter Jobbing Book and Pamphlet Folder, a list of extra attachments, and "Diagrams of Impositions for the dexter Jobbing, Book and Pamphlet Folder.".
