This listing is for the First Edition "Cheaper By The Dozen" 1948 by Frank B Gilbreth Jr & Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, illustrated by Donald McKay, Printed by Thomas Y Crowell Company Hardcover with Dust Jacket that specifies this is a "Book of The Month Selection". The dust jacket shows quite a bit of ware and some tears to the top and bottom but the book is in good shape. There is a inscription on the inside front cover page but it has apparently been cut to remove most of that inscription. No other writing, missing pages or other noticeable issues. see pics.

The Fine Print:

I do not accept returns.  All of my items are purchased second hand from junk stores, rummage sales, flea markets…etc.  For this reason, and the fact that many of my items are 50+ years old, my items show ware and other issues from age and use.  They are NOT new or unused unless specified to be so.  Look very carefully at the pictures. I also cannot verify that any given item did or did not come from a Smoke or Pet Free home. 

I will gladly ship overseas but free Shipping, if offered, only applies to inside the continental US.  Shipping charges will be additional for Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Canada and Overseas purchases. Contact me with your location & I can give you a shipping quote.

I try very hard to package as carefully as possible all of the items I sell. However, sometimes, no matter how well an item is packaged, it ends up lost or damaged. Insurance will cover these problems. If an item is lost or damaged, please contact me and I will do all I can to fix the problem and either get you your item or get insurance to refund your money.
