Greetings Booklovers,

We are pleased to offer:
~
(No. 8980 )  Kimmel, Stanley. THE MAD BOOTHS OF MARYLAND.
Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill Company, Publishers, (1940). First printing, 
Full cloth, Octavo, 400 pages, Black & white plates. Very good in a worn, 
price clipped jacket, Jacket in Mylar protector.
      Landmark biography of one of America's most legendary stage families. 
Kimmel ambitiously delves into the family lore of Lincoln assassin John 
Wilkes Booth to separate fact from fiction. Bound in tan cloth over boards 
with dark brown spine and upper board lettering. Minor extremity rubs to 
cloth, light foxing to frontispiece and title page, otherwise clean and 
sound. No hinge cracks. Jacket shows edge chips, rubs, closed tears, with 
large chips to head and heel of spine. Several jacket edges have been taped. 
Despite its wear the jacket text is complete and it remains a compliment to 
the book....... $75.00
