Up for auction is a 192 page hardback book (6 3/8" by 9 1/4") titled "MINERALS OF CALIFORNIA" - BULLETIN 173 - 1956; DIVISION OF MINES; DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES; STATE OF CALIFORNIA; second edition 1958. The book is in fine condition with solid bindings and no loose, torn or missing pages. The corners are slightly bumped and there is some very light staining to the interesting lime green color of the front and back covers. The interior pages possess no writing and are in excellent, like-new condition. See the scans for details. The vertical white lines visible to the right of the first scan are relics from my scanner and not present on the book.

from my father, Frank Decaminada's personal library.
My father made library-quality book covers for all his books.
This book will ship with such a cover. Photo shows it.
He amassed not only a vast library of gem, mineral and geology books,
but also went on many rock-hounding adventures and left behind a vast collection of
not only his 'mined' treasures but also the gems and minerals he purchased over more than 30 years.
