Vintage Mel Bay's Guitar Chords In Photo Diagram Form Book. Nice 1959 Mel Bay vintage photo diagram guitar book. Mel Bay publications Inc. Pacific, Mo. 40 pages of great guitar chord photo diagrams. I believe this is a beginner book. The front and back cover have some spine creases and there is a black marker mark on the front. Some edge/corner wear . There is of course a little age toning on the covers, but the pages inside are very clean and are in great condition!! Overall, I would say it's in really great condition!! Add this to your collection of Mel Bay collectible books or a gift for somebody who just wants to learn chords on the guitar. See all pics!!
