No Date - but from the photos and the numbers on the last page I am fairly sure this was a 1904 publication. Red thin stapled card covers with lettering in black and a gold border around the title 'Carmarthen' and an oval gilt heraldic device in the centre of the cover. A black lettered gilt bordered Advert for 'Masters & Co.' s' Clothing store at Waterloo House, Nott Square on the rear cover. There is a little light edge wear, small tears around the staples, some corner creasing, and a little of the red colour from the covers left small spots on the first and last pages in a couple of places, o/w a VG copy. Narrow small 12mo. 40pp. Numerous b/w (nearer sepia really) photo illustrations and adverts for local shops/businesses. A single page 'Map of the Carmarthen District', with the 'letterpress' giving the usual local historical and useful information that you would expect to find in a guide book. George Eyre Evans, the Author, was a Cardiganshire Vicar, but also an Author in his own right and the Hon. Sec to the Carmarthenshire Antiquarian Society. A Charming period piece and pretty Scarce.
