Description: An authentic 1944 wartime edition of How to Raise Rabbits for Food and Fur by Frank G. Ashbrook, published by Orange Judd Publishing Co.
This highly illustrated guide features historical photographs, diagrams, and insights into mid-century rabbit husbandry, including a fascinating look at the United States Government's Rabbit Experiment Station in Fontana, California.
The cloth hardcover itself is well-preserved and in good condition, though the fragile paper dust jacket shows significant wear and tearing. The front interior page retains a charming, hand-penned address inscription dated "10-25-1944" from Chicago, Illinois. A wonderful cross-collectible piece for military history buffs, agricultural historians, or vintage book collectors.
