Principles and Practices of Up-Keep Painting

First edition. Wilmington, DE: E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Inc., 1923.

Presentation bookplate to the front pastedown, No. 716. An aid for manufacturers and others responsible for creating and maintaining industrial equipment, well-illustrated with nice abstract-looking black and white photographs throughout the text. With the original "Paints and Varnishes Color Chart Supplement" mounted/taped inside the rear cover (awkwardly, but it's done the job to keep the materials together). The supplement contains 6 pages with mounted color chips. Small puncture on the cover of the supplement and the binding of the book has a few stray marks on the covers, but is overall in VG+ to Near Fine condition.
