Two Antique Travel & Science Books 1930
This lot includes two vintage cloth-bound books: a 1930 edition of 'Canyons, Cans and Caravans' by F.H. Eva Hasell and 'Essays on the Evolution of Man' by G. Elliot Smith. 'Canyons, Cans and Caravans' features a charming illustrated cover and contains photographic plates documenting the author's travels through Western Canada. Both volumes are bound in textured green cloth and serve as interesting examples of early 20th-century travel and scientific literature.
Condition
Good antique condition with expected shelf wear, corner bumping, and light foxing to pages. Internal binding appears secure despite some external cloth fraying at the spine edges. Covers show mild discoloration consistent with age and handling.
