Kidder Parker Architects' and Builders' Handbook, 18th Edition

This item is a hardcover book titled "KIDDER PARKER ARCHITECTS' AND BUILDERS' HANDBOOK" with Harry Parker listed as the EDITOR-IN-CHIEF. The visible text on the cover clearly indicates that this is the 18TH EDITION of the handbook. The cover appears to be a solid, dark color, likely maroon or dark red. The title and author information are printed in a contrasting lighter color, seemingly gold or a pale yellow. The binding is not fully visible, but the cover design suggests a sturdy construction typical of reference books. There are some light areas visible on the cover which might indicate minor surface wear or reflections from lighting. The overall impression is that of a well-maintained, possibly used, technical or professional handbook related to architecture and building. The photograph is taken on a phone screen, so the true condition and details are somewhat obscured by the screen interface elements visible on the left side of the image. Based on the context provided, the item is described as being in good condition. There are no discernible manufacturing marks or unique features visible in the image beyond the title and edition information. The age can only be estimated based on the 18th edition, which would require further research to pinpoint the exact publication date.
