Title: The Commercial & Financial Chronicle. Panama-Pacific Section Author: Shepherd, George M. Place: New York Publisher: William B. Dana Date: 1914 Description: 176 pp. Illustrated from photographs. (4to), original printed wrappers. “The purpose of the publishers in offering this edition is to provide an authentic and reliable work of reference on the commercial and financial conditions as existing in the Pacific Coast territory of the United States at the time of the opening of the Panama Canal.” Chapters on farming, timber, mining, oil, banking and securities, and brief sections on both of the California Expositions—much statistical material of an economic sort. Top of the cover states: “Two Sections—Section Two,” but we can find no record of a Section One. First published version-- later reissued by Dana under the title The Panama Canal and the Pacific Coast. OCLC notes three holdings for the first issue (SF Public, Yale, Missouri/St. Louis) and five for the second (with the British Library copy noted as 150pp, hence lacking the last two chapters). Lot Amendments Condition: Spine repaired with glue, a few dampstains, darkening and soiling, tears and creasing to edges of covers and leaves; very good. Item number: 261190
