An old book titled " Practical Book-Keeping and Accountancy " by Northcott and Forsyth and published in December 1949.

What makes this book truly interesting is the fact that inside front cover it has very neatly embossed the following:-

THE NEW CURIOSITY SHOP
35, Bishop Str.
( corner to Strait Str. )
Valletta, Malta.

This shop must have existed in the early Fifties in view of the book's publication date. A nice souvenir or piece of Melitensia from a bygone age.

The condition of the book is fair, with the printing on the spine nearly faded but otherwise book is still tight with no missing or torn pages.
