The B.B.C. Year-Book 1930 (The British Broadcasting Corporation, 1st edition (1930)).
The third year of the BBC yearbook, the 1928 and 1929 volumes having been published under the title 'B.B.C. Handbook'. A review of the aims, workings and achievements of the BBC. Many of the dustwrappers, especially the 1920s/30s featuring striking art from leading artists and illustrators.
This 1930 yearbook with dustwrapper by Irene Fawkes (1886-1977), who from 1923-35 produced many posters for London Transport.
Hardback in dustwrapper. 464pp including b/w illustrations and adverts. 7.5 x 5 inches approx. (188mm x 125mm).
Dustwrapper dusty and somewhat grubby to spine; wear to folds and extremities with small loss; foxing visible to reverse side. Cloth covers a touch dusty but generally clean and bright; offsetting and foxed to endpapers; occasional foxing throughout but generally clean; spotting and dusty to edges of page-block.
Overall, a reasonably nice, clean copy in dustwrapper – usually found with a tatty dustwrapper, this copy in better than average condition.
ref. By Underground to Kew – London Transport Posters 1908 to the Present by Jonathan Riddell and William T. Stearn (Studio Vista, 1994).
