1956 edition of the American Card Catalog; 168 pages of hobby goodness as published by Jefferson Burdick, Charles Bray, Gene DeNardo and Woody Gelman. Quite a complete catalog, featuring elaborate descriptions and ACC designations for tons of card types, along with brief descriptions and suggested values for each. The back pages include buy/sell ads from many hobby pioneers, including Gelman, Bray (who advertises his mail auction service), Lawrence Brandt, Fanny Troyer, Goodwin Goldfaden, Edgar Wharton-Tigar, Burdick, Lionel Carter and more.  GOOD condition with significant wear at the spine, the cover virtually separated at the staples but still hanging on by thin strips of paper.  The interior pages have fared much better, perhaps VG/EX.
