Garage sale find, thought it was worth the .50 cents

Anyone know anything about it or the author, it’s in pretty good shape for a paperback almost 80 years old, little wear on the cover edges and some sections are a bit loose

Looking forward to reading it

Definitely a score for 50 cents. I don’t know much about it either,,,pretty neat reading those old publications

You woulda probably scored at 50 bucks. Nice find. I know nothing about it, but a couple of my favorite reads are not well known at all.

If it's pretty good, you might consider republishing it. I'd buy a copy.

Here it is. Not cheap. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you can see it was also produced in French.
