RARE 1914 Signed First Edition Speculative Masonry A. S. Macbride Freemason Book

RARE 1914 FIRST EDITION FREEMASONRY ASSOCIATION COPY. ## Personally Inscribed & Dated by Author A. An exceptional, highly elusive piece of Masonic history for serious collectors. This is a true 1914 first edition copy of "Speculative Masonry: Its Mission, Its Evolution, and its Landmarks" by the famous Scottish Freemason, Andrew Somerville Macbride A. Unlike modern reprints or later US editions, this copy was printed in Glasgow by D. In 1914 and features an incredibly rare hand-signed dedication from the author himself. The handwritten fountain pen dedication on the flyleaf page reads: With the author's compliments and fraternal regards. Huntingdon Drive, The Park, Nottm.

His outstanding "association copy" bridges Scottish and English Masonic history. It links Macbride Past Master of Lodge Progress No. 873 directly to Worshipful Brother Joseph Spray of Nottingham, England, signed just months before the outbreak of WWI.
