Description
Elements of Acoustical Engineering. This is the audio bible for audio engineers, designers, and DIYers. It is a FIRST EDITION of this highly prized book by the greatest audio engineer ever. Harry F. Olson from RCA. It is the cleanest example I have ever seen. The original paper outer cover is present although it is a little tattered. But it has kept the actual hard cover in pristine condition. Also equally impressive is the inside. The color of the pages is outstanding with minimal color change over the years. Only the very outside edges of the pages have a change in color due to oxidation. This book was originally owned by an RCA engineer and there are several hand written notes in pencil. The most interesting is a note on page 79 indicating a typo in the formula. Several notes of particular interest by the original owner, and several pages near the end of the book where he uses a dash mark to highlight paragraphs of interest. There is one page (59/60) with a dog eared corner and penciled notes on page 59. The spine, gold gilding, corners and edges are pristine. There are no fingerprints or smudge marks on any page. No name on an inside page. The writing I describe is shown in the pictures. Also the blank pages in the front and back of the book have changed in color having a slight browning or yellowing. This is shown in one of the pictures. The contrast between the blank pages and the printed pages is shown. I have several other copies that the inner pages equally have aged and are brittle due to the fact they have been used over the years as reference. This copy obviously has sat on a shelf undisturbed for most of its life. It is the first copy I have personally seen with the outer cover. It will be securely packed for safe delivery. Insured shipping via US postal priority mail will be $8.00 within the lower 48 states. Shipping outside the US will be higher. This book is accurately described but is being sold "AS IS." I accept PayPal, US postal money orders, and personal check. Check must clear bank before item ships. I will email the tracking number once item ships.
