Canadian Company Forms, Third Edition, 1947

The item is a bound book titled "CANADIAN COMPANY FORMS." The title is prominently displayed in large, dark, sans-serif capital letters near the top of the page. Below the title, a horizontal line acts as a separator, followed by "THIRD EDITION" and the year "1947," indicating its publication details and a potential estimated age of 77 years. Another horizontal line separates this information from the author's credit, which reads "BY W. KASPAR FRASER, K.C." The letters K.C. likely denote 'King's Counsel,' a legal designation common in the British Commonwealth during that period, suggesting the author was a prominent legal professional. At the bottom of the page, the publisher is identified as "TORONTO: THE CARSWELL COMPANY, LIMITED." Below this, there is a small line stating "Printed in Canada," confirming its country of origin. The page itself appears to be a title page or similar introductory page within the book, characterized by its off-white or cream color, suggesting aging or the original paper stock. The text is printed in a clear, dark ink, likely black or a very dark grey, which is still highly legible. There are no immediate visible signs of damage such as tears, significant creases, or heavy foxing on this particular page. The overall quality of the printing appears good, with consistent line weight and no obvious smudges or misalignments. The visible surface does not show any significant wear or heavy use, indicating that this page is in relatively good condition for its age. The layout is clean and professional, typical of legal or reference publications of the mid-20th century.
