This is the 1960 Fruit Spraying Calendar, Extension Bulletin 154 from the Cooperative Extension Service at Michigan State University in East Lansing, a staple-bound orchard guide by A. E. Mitchell, Alfred C. Dowdy, and Edward J. Klos.
The listing grades it Good: the cover shows tanning, scattered stains and spotting, edge wear, and a turned top right corner, the staples are present, and the inside pages are readable with toning for age.
Inside you get spray schedules crop by crop for apples, cherries, plums, and more, with sections on insecticides, fungicides, concentrate spraying math, and chemical thinning of apples and peaches. A typed Late report on spraying sheet is stapled in at the front, and the back page carries a residue tolerance table.

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.
Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.
I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.
I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
