Description: JIU-JITSU - Japanese Feats of Attack and Defense in Personal Encounter with 1935 Johnson Smith & Co. Novelty Catalog This is an antique example of JIU-JITSU - Japanese Feats of Attack and Defense in Personal Encounter, a heavily illustrated 5—¼ x 8-¾ inch, 64-page book on the science of Jiu-Jitsu. It was printed in the USA by Johnson Smith & Co. of Racine, Wisconsin and has a copyright date of 1935. The second half of the book is the Supplementary Catalogue of Surprising Novelties, Puzzles, Tricks, Joke Goods, Useful Articles, etc.. This section looks like it has 64 or more pages but they are unnumbered. Articles advertised are crystal radio sets, keyless locks, automatic pistol cigarette cases, cream extractors, dancing skeletons, change purses, reptiles, revolving date stamps, comic celluloid buttons, novelty punch cards, good luck rings, solar telescopes, as well as instruction booklets on wrestling, swimming, magic tricks, trapping, pigeons and songbirds, growing roses, playing the harmonica, tap dancing, ventriloquism and much more. Our pictures show the actual heavily illustrated 89 year old softcover publication offered for sale. It is in nice used condition with some damage to the spine. No odor.

QUESTIONS: we do not accept returns so if you have any questions about this antique book, be sure to ask before you click the Buy It Now button, NOT after you have purchased the item.

SHIPPING: this item will be shipped in a sturdy package and we are happy to combine shipping of multiple books. We do not charge a handling fee and will refund overpayment of postage as soon as a combined order has been shipped. FOREIGN BUYERS: we ship to most foreign countries at additional cost, however all foreign customers are responsible for any VAT payments, import duties and customs clearing fees. International buyers are required to submit their telephone number along with their shipping address. DELIVERY: we photograph every parcel we ship by USPS or by the public carrier specified by the buyer. We e-mail that photo and any applicable tracking number to the buyer as proof of mailing or shipping. Delivery responsibility is then in the hands of the USPS or of any other public carrier selected by the buyer, and does not involve Rapidapolis in any way. Communications about, and responsibility for the delivery to the buyer must be between the buyer and the public carrier, and can not include Rapidapolis on eBay. RETURNS: because of eBay’s approach to returns nowadays we no longer represent anything as being suitable for use for any specific purpose. We sell everything as a surplus curio or relic “as is-where is”, with no implied or other warranties of any kind given, and which may or may not be useful for its original or intended purpose. What you see is what we have photographed and what we will ship. RAPIDAPOLIS has a long history of selling on eBay since 1999, and of customer satisfaction with the items we sell and with our shipping. We encourage buyers to examine our listings carefully, review our many thousands of feedbacks and buy with confidence
