GER Official Book "The Eastern Counties Pictorial Guide" containing nearly 200 Views of East Anglia with Coloured Map and Descriptive Letterpress. Printed & Published in conjunction with The Great Eastern Railway Co by Brights Ltd., Bournemouth, Price 1/-. This green, linen covered book is just unbelievable measuring almost 12" x 10" and containing 179 stunning pages. Open the first page to be confronted with a Colmans Mustard advert with a colour inset page added....then feast yourself on probably the best book on East Anglia ever published in this era. It is a First Edition of 10,000 (wonder how many are left in this condition) and although there doesn't appear to be a date, the rear linen cover carries a wonderful advert for the Company and it is dated June 1899 Liverpool Street Station. A true museum item.
