crl-11038	Kurth, William H.	Mexican Book Prices, 1950 and 1954 - A Note on the Cost of Books Index	1956-11-01	3	.pdf	application/pdf	1580	72	70	This is a drop of about 22 per cent from the peso's 1950 level in terms of U. S. currency, a factor in itself tending to facilitate American library purchasing of Mexican books. Price trends in Mexico, except through the temporary distortion introduced by the devaluation of the peso in April, 1954, are probably typical of the other Latin-American book trades, with the possible exception of Ar- gentina, thus making a price comparison between 1950 and 1954 prices significant from the standpoint of libraries in the United States.	cache/crl-11038.pdf	txt/crl-11038.txt
