Description: Fabulous time-capsule! English language travel book of Rome published in Rome by a Roman, Leone Gessi, in 1949, shortly after the end of World War II. The book is presented as if we are walking through Rome with Mr Leone Gessi, the author. You can take in the sights and relish in points of interest you’ve seen in a Fellini or Vittorio De Sica movie. The piece de resistance is the full size lithography map in the back pocket. The map is not a photographic repro. It is real laid down ink. I’d fold it out but I was afraid I’d tear it. The map is of the city. It’s just really cool. 7.25 inches by 5 inches. 248 pages. Many many black and white reproduced photographs Condition: the woven cloth flex style cover has some fade and areas of wear. Note the edges and corners. The inside front end paper has a loss of some paper. SHIPPING: USPS Media Mail with Tracking TERMS OF SALE: I accept returns within 30 days of buyer receiving the book. Book must be returned and buyer is asked to pay for return shipping. Thank you for shopping 🛍
