An extraordinary offering is this beautifully preserved 500-page volume from London, England devoted to all types of skating, including figure skating and racing. Only 250 copies were printed with this one numbered "212". Rare large size book (just under 7" by 10") includes a title page that features a gent in skates and holding a hockey/bandy stick, while the final(!) chapter includes the rules of bandy. Thirteen pages of ultra-interesting reading await the new owner, with another page showing two players, with a "Dribbling at Bandy" caption below. The origins and development of skating, and sections on curling, tobogganing and ice sailing are also fascinating.
