You get one vintage Fisherman's Luck by Lou J. Eppinger 1928 hardcover book published by him in Detroit. It does not come with a dust jacket. This item is in English. The story of the Eppinger lure is legendary. Search for the author's name / ESPN to read about the author.

The book was personalized by Lou Eppinger, as he inscribed the inside cover to a "Bird Glasbie" and signed "by Lou." Also on the inside of the front cover of this book is a picture of Lou and I'm assuming the other person is Bird. This seems to be a gift from Lou to Bird and the picture shows Lou's tackle box and lures.

Bird was a Spanish War veteran who lived in Oxford, Michigan and was elected to the House of Representatives. He played and coached football at Michigan State normal school, which is now Eastern Michigan University. Bird also founded the Oxford Leader newspaper in Oxford, Michigan. It is still being published today.

This book is in good condition with some wear to its covers and edges. The binding is tight and the book is complete with no loose pages. The pages have tanned over the years, This item is 7.25 inches tall by 4.5 inches wide. These measurements are approximations to give you an idea of the size of the book. Please see all pictures.

The first cinema, the Asakusa Denikikan, was opened in Tokyo in 1903 and within 13 years 300 cinemas had sprung up throughout the country... (The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation." Edgewear, creases to bottom and bottom and top corners of front cover, soil on bottom and light soil to outside pages. We note pencilled underlining on at least 29 pages and pencilled marginalia on at least three pages and four creased page corners. Quotes… Read More
