In very good condition here is a vintage hardback copy of The Hunting Wasp by John Crompton. Undated but would have been published in 1950 by The Scientific Book Club, London. With the original dust jacket.
Contents: The Method of the Hunting Wasp; The Caterpillar Hunters; The Beetle Hunters; The Bee Hunters; The Grasshopper Hunters; The Cricket, Locust, Cockroach and Mantid Hunters; The Subterranean Hunters; The Fly Hunters; The Froghopper Hunters; The Spider Hunters; The Ant Hunters; The Cement Makers; The House of Vespa; The Hornet; The Dwarfs and the Giants.
Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound. Has an inked name and date of 1951 at the top of the front free endpaper but no other writing or markings of previous ownership. With one line drawing, else unillustrated.
With the original eye-catching dust jacket. In clean and smart condition. With just a few nicks and chips at the head/tail of the spine and at the corners. The jacket has now been protected for the future by the addition of a removable plastic sleeve.
Your vintage copy of The Hunting Wasp will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to include a gift card and message if desired.
H 20.5 cm x W 14 cm, 254 pages, 0.36 kg. I dispatch worldwide daily from the UK. (There are just a very few countries which I am unable to ship to).
* If you would prefer for your book not to be decoratively wrapped but sent simply in the full protective packaging please add a note to the order.
