    Description

    The Collie by Dr. O. P. Bennett and C.H. Wheeler original VINTAGE book.
    Published in Washington, Ill in 1924.
    Believe this to be a second edition as there is a section in the PREFACE titled “PREFACE – SECOND EDITION”.
    A definitive work on the history of the Collie breed in the US and Great Britain.
    Contains rare photographs of Collie champions from the late 1800s / early 1900s.
    Includes the original supplement poster “Ancestral Tree of Leading Collies, Past and Present” by Dr. Bennett in good condition except for a tear in the bottom left hand corner appx 3 inches long.
    The edges still fit together nicely and create a complete picture of that corner of the poster.
    Chapters include:
    Origin
    History
    Blue Merles
    American Collies
    The Typical Collie
    Breeding
    Foods and Feeding
    Kennelling
    Exhibiting
    Common Ailments
    The book is in good condition for its age but has some scratches and rubs on the cover, wear on the edges of the cover, and split in the inside binding on a couple of pages.
