Description

A detailed manual on growing asparagus in Slovenian language was self-published by the author Josip Štrekelj (1868–1955), a politician and author on several books on agriculture.

We could not find any examples outside Slovenian institutions. The stamps in the book are from a school, active under the stated name between 1967-1991.
