The Manufacturer's "card" is still inside the book and reads:

"A tradition of quality and craftsmanship for over seventy years (and this book is from 1980!) stands behind this fine book. The Hammond imprimatur on any volume is assurance of the use of first grade materials and superior workmanship. The gold-stamped, leather-finished covers, padded to enhance the depth of stamping, are washable and long-lasting. The special finish on which the pages are printed was made for easy readability and long life. Bound by master craftsmen, the finished volume is a tribute to its contents and is one of which you, as the owner, may be justly proud."

There is also a "Greeting" card inside the front cover from Newtown Manufacturing Company in Connecticut who gave this book as a holiday gift to one of their Customers.
