THE GERMAN SHORTHAIRED POINTER, TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN
Silver Spring: Denlinger's 1950 First American Edition Softcover Very Good
No authors are given. The preface states that this translation was done from the German original because the demand for a book on the German shorthaired was so great, that the publisher wanted to supply information to the public while the more extensive hardcover book was being worked on. Photos. Quite a bit of discussion between the types dominating the trials at that time, and also on the pros/cons of breeding for one trait over another in trying to increase overall drive. Photos and painting reproductions. Grey stapled wraps, slightly yellowing at edges, lightly creased bottom corners, owner's name on first page. A rarely seen publication because of its fragility, this makes a nice addition for the dedicated collector. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 48 pages
