SIGNED Vintage FIELD GUIDE TO WESTERN BIRDS Peterson HD/DJ VG
I met Roger Tory Peterson in 1991 when he was in Monterey, California, and I asked him to stop by to sign some of his new books.
I got this one signed along with a copy of the new edition.
Condition is very good, with some fading along the spine, which makes me think the dust jacket might have been added later. It's a nice dust jacket that still is correct for the book! Hard to find this!!

MY GRADING SYSTEM FOR BOOKS
I try to mention loose pages, stains, binding damage, condition of dust jacket and to the book etc. However, sometimes binding glue weakens and when old paperbacks are opened for reading, additional pages may loosen at that time.
VERY FINE: in exceptional condition with tight binding, clean pages, no spine or cover creases, appears unread. No shelf wear or edge wear.
FINE: in exceptional condition with tight binding, clean pages, no spine or cover creases, appears unread. Might still show very light scuffing and light shelf wear or edge wear.
VERY GOOD: Tight binding, clean pages, might still show some scuffs and shelf wear.
GOOD: the average used book or paperback; not heavily read, but may show an accumulation of wear and creases.
ACCEPTABLE: reader?s copy: a complete copy, but well-read with worn edges and a greater accumulation of creases and other wear.
