Description

Pure Gold and Rough Diamonds. Gems from the Scrapbook of a Travelling Watchmaker and Jeweller in Otago and Southland by J. B. Hislop. 'Here is a fine collection of gems from the sample case of J. B. Hislop, well-known Watchmaking and Jewellery representative. During his many years travelling throughout Otago and Southland, he met many entertaining characters and collected many stories worth retelling. His lively reminiscences of experiences on motor-bike and car, in farm-house, hotel and mining town, all bear the imprint of the author's personality, and often leave the reader chuckling.' The book has light to medium general wear with light staining and some small tears of the covers but the binding remains tight and pages bright.
