CXXVIII + 442 pages, 1 panorama of Athens, 14 maps (from 15), 25 plans - not checked number - but write to me and I will check this. I predict the number of maps and plans will be complet (except map in back pocket).

Also feel free to ask for more photos !

Very nice condition, no failures - only spine looks a bit worn and practically all the guide is never used.
It Includes panorama, no tears. All well preserved, no tears, no marks, Page 7 a bit exceeds another pages. Very nice colourful marbling page edges.

Only one orange bookmark.

By list of baedeker guides in beginning of the book it was completed in 1934. Also binding supports this hyppothesis due to gold title on front desk is not so gold as 1908 edition completed in this year (I have these two variants so I can compare). In 1908 they used better gold for golden titles on front desks of baedekers. Notice the most baedekers completed after WWI have not so gold title (not so good gold used), it is not so yellow.

But this book completed in 1934 has its charm opposite to original completed in 1908, becuase it has more nice marbling, this book is huger than 1908 (about not so thin paper was used). It has not so gold title as 1908 original. Moreover last map in the book showing Greece at all (scale 1 : 5 mil.) display situation about in year 1914 (probably they took this map from Baedeker Konstantinopel 1914 and inserted it here) when Bulgaria gained access to aegeian sea.

So surely also this book althought it lacks endpocket map has charm. I like these baedeker guides completed after WWI. I met more such, also Konstantinopel. Moreover some of them were completed later yet, these have characteristic grain on their surface.

Wish you nice shopping !
