A curious guide to the stock market advertising Van Strum's financial advisory service, published in 1930 at a time when the global economy had 'just passed through the most severe panic in history' (p.5)
The advice it contains draws on Van Strum's more theoretical works but is designed principally for a lay reader. Suffice to say, it emphasises the importance of investing in common stocks over the longer term, as well as the benefits of adopting a 'Van Strum' portfolio in order to 'obtain expert, complete, accurate, and unbiased' advice (p.61).
All editions of the text appear to be scarce. OCLC records just one copy of the sixth edition at the University of South Carolina. We can trace no copies of any of the editions (all published the same year) outside of the USA.
Sixth edition, published the same year as the first; 8vo; one-colour spot illustrations throughout, stamped 'Printed in the U.S.A.' to title; dark blue cloth backed light blue boards, title-pieces to spine and upper cover, very minor wear to extremities; 73, [1]pp.
