This auction is for a vintage 1969 “Tai Chi: The Minutes-A-Day-Way To Youthful Grace And Vitality” first edition paperback book by Alice McGrath & Bruce Tegner. The book appears to be a 1st edition and looks to be in unread condition. We think this because the pages do not fall open all the way and feel like they may have never been fully spread open as would be found with a new unread book. The book is marked in part as follows: TAI CHI. THE MINUTES-A-DAY-WAY TO YOUTHFUL GRACE AND VITALITY. BY ALICE MCGRATH. A BANTAM MINIBOOK. A BANTAM BOOK / APRIL 1969. © COPYRIGHT, 1969 BY ALICE MCGRATH & BRUCE TEGNER. The book is loaded with black & white photographic images throughout. The book measures roughly 5 1/2” x 4” x 5/16” and weighs 1.8 oz. The book’s covers have scratches, nicks, wear, dings, edge wear, bumped corners, peeling, creases, indentation marks, discoloration, yellowing, bending, and dirty and/or stained areas. There also appear to be manufacturing imperfections to the cover and binding. These include a spine with wavy areas, as well as misregistration/poor cropping resulting in a crooked cut and spine copy partly “rolling over” onto the front cover. The pages have yellowing, aging, creases, a page with a missing corner, and a page with a large creased corner and a tear in it (see pictures). This vintage 1969 “Tai Chi: The Minutes-A-Day-Way To Youthful Grace And Vitality” first edition paperback book by Alice McGrath & Bruce Tegner is sure to be a nice addition to your collection.
