A tight and nice later printing of this 1926 text, a volume in this publisher's "Athletics for Women Series." Interestingly, this copy bears pencilled ownership signature on front flyleaf of appropriately-named Vivian Springer, a well-known tumbling coach of that era. She pencils large checkmarks alongside many maneuvers, a couple comments on techniques in the margins, and lists a dozen tumbling terms (perhaps the order of events for a tumbling meet?) on rear pastedown. Intriguing copy of an uncommon title.
