Get to Your Marks!
Ross & Norris [Harold Abrahams] McWhirter Nicholas Kaye, London · 1951
First Edition. Scarce book of athletics records from the year dot to 1950. 267pp text and 41 photo plates. Foreword by Harold Abrahams.
The McWhirters of course went on from this modest start to create the Guinness Book of Records, and the rest, as they say, is history. Wear to head and tail of spinebut quite sound and perfectly clean internally.
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
