    Description

    Please refer to pictures.
    Hawaiian Islands--The Picturesque--The Paradise of the Pacific. Published circa 1903 (last date to be found in the introduction, or anywhere else)--Unpaginated, but about 1/2" thick. Elegant black & white reproductions of 70+ period photos. The interior pages are in very good condition; first page (Honolulu Harbor) has a small 'chip' at the bottom and on page has a 1" tear on the right. Neither of these affects the photograph. Binding is a bit hard to describe. 3 heavy duty, original staples hold the internal pages together, but the cardborad covers are completely separated from the inner pages.  The cover is well worn. Measures 14" X 10" each B&W photograph measures 8"X10". Please let me know if you have questions. It is a fascinating pictorial representation of life on the Hawaiian Islands at the turn of the last century. Published by M. A. Donohue & Co, Chicago.
