Mary Baker Eddy: A Life Size Portrait by Lyman P. Powell

This item is a copy of the book titled 'Mary Baker Eddy: A Life Size Portrait', authored by Lyman P. Powell, and published by The Macmillan Company in New York, in the year 1930. The image provided shows the title page (or possibly a half-title page) of the book. The paper appears to be an off-white or cream color, indicating its age and material, likely a standard paper stock for book printing in the early 20th century. The text is printed clearly in black ink, with the title 'MARY BAKER EDDY' in a larger, bold, sans-serif font, followed by 'A Life Size Portrait' in a slightly smaller, italicized, serif font. The author's name, 'LYMAN P. POWELL', is also in a serif font, separated by 'BY' in a smaller print. The publisher's information, 'NEW YORK', 'THE MACMILLAN COMPANY', and '1930', is centrally located towards the bottom of the page, all in a serif font. The overall construction appears to be a typical hardcover book of its era, although only an interior page is visible. The page shows minor signs of aging consistent with a 94-year-old book, such as slight discoloration due to exposure or natural paper degradation, but no significant tears, stains, or creases are immediately apparent from the image. The edges of the page at the binding show a gentle curve, suggesting the book has been opened and read, contributing to a natural wear and tear patina. The book's style period is clearly early 20th century, specifically 1930, reflecting the typography and publishing standards of that time. There are no visible unique markings beyond the standard title page information. Quality indicators include the clear printing and seemingly well-preserved paper for its age, suggesting a book that has been cared for to some extent.
