How to Mix Drinks, or the Bon-Vivant's Companion by Jerry Thomas (1876 Dick & Fitzgerald pressing). This is a very early pressing (2nd edition) of the classic cocktail book by Jerry Thomas. Unfortunately the cover has one glaring flaw, otherwise the condition is good for a book of its age. It would be great to see this book restored into beautiful condition by a professional.
Free shipping through USPS with insurance. Local pickup is also available (and preferred).
