Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

The book is hardback and brown in color; almost completely absent of design, it is only marked with the title printed on its spine in horizontally oriented gold text on a narrow section of black cover which is a slightly different material than the rest of the brown cover. The text reads [BOLLES'/PHONOGRAPHIC PRONOUNCING/DICTIONARY]. There are two embossed horizontal lines below the title on the spine.
