Birmingham As It Was - Joseph McKenna

Birmingham As It Was by Joseph McKenna, published by Birmingham Public Libraries in association with Hendon Publishing Company Limited, 1979. The cover carries the subtitle 'The City 1857-1914' and features a sepia-toned photograph of a Birmingham street scene with shops, a church spire, and horse-drawn traffic. A second archive photograph of an ornate building appears among the images. The copyright page confirms the text is copyright Joseph McKenna, 1979.

This is a paperback booklet, saddle-stitched with two staples visible at the spine. The cover shows creasing and a small tear at the top edge, with some rubbing and discolouration. The spine edge shows light wear consistent with handling. Inside, the sample pages show black and white photographs of old Birmingham buildings with accompanying descriptive text, printed on white paper with no visible foxing or staining in the areas shown.
