223pp. Illustrated throughout with detailed monochrome instructional photographic plates. Publisher's original deep navy-blue lacquered cloth boards featuring sharp blind-stamped borders and the iconic central structural vignette depicting two wrestlers on the front board. Titles in gold print. Shows some light structural wear to cloth extremities, but remains a tight, clean example.

An important early 20th-century physical culture manual featuring the author demonstrating historic Catch-as-Catch-Can wrestling takedowns, body scissors, hooks, and localized self-defense counters derived from early Japanese Jiu-Jitsu imports. Highly sought after by martial arts historians and collectors of vintage physical culture literature.
