The original black cloth is in excellent shape with corners square and gilt lettering on the spine as bright as if just issued.

The original colorful dust jacket shows a few freckles on its interior, with a small tear at the top-edge. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "Felix Kaufmann attended meetings of the Vienna Circle regularly and was a bridge between the Circle and the phenomenological movement, of which he was later one of the leading exponents at the New School in New York. § This early characteristic work, the author's own favorite, combines the best features of both schools. Two contemporary articles on related themes are included: one published, in German, in 'Erkenntnis' (1931); the other, heretofore unpublished."---gleaned from flap and preface. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage.
