Counterfeit by Arthur Kallet 1st Edition 1935

 

“not your money, but what it buys”

 

Good condition -- see all photos.

 

This is not one of the many reprints issued later.  This is the actual 1st Edition from 1935.

 

This has been deemed a culturally and historically important book.

 

The photos you see here are photos of the actual book that you will receive. Many book sellers online post using stock photos that often don’t resemble the book you actually receive.

 

Interesting book... would you pay 96 cents for toilet soap or 2.35 cents for brand named beauty soap.... the narrative style is interesting and amusing.

Many interesting black and white photos. A book devoted to exposing 'counterfeit goods' i.e. consumer products which simply do not live up to their billing. Author co-authored the landmark '100,000,000 Guinea Pigs.' This wonderful early consumer protection publication remains informative, and entertaining, today. A true collector’s item.
