Hand Cannon to Automatic: A Pictorial Parade of Hand Arms

Huntington, WV, Standard Publications, 1944. Hardcover. Brown cloth boards with black lettering, 202 pp. bw illustrations throughout. "This book is not a technical treatise on arms, nor does it deal with the science of collecting arms. There are many books upon these subjects, written by men better qualified in their respective fields. It is as the subtitle implies, a pictorial parade of Hand Arms .. wherein the chronological development of short arms down through the centuries is pictured in a simple, graphic and intersting manner. It is the type of book for which many collectors and laymen have expressed a desire. Long detailed descriptions have been omitted in lieu of featuring the illustrations large enough to tell their own story, a plan which should appeal to most lovers of arms." - from the Preface. G (smudging and shelf wear on cover, age toning along textblock, all pages intact with previous owner's inscription on front page) .
