First edition; 11 3/4 x 8 3/4; pp. [7], 8-302; rebacked, with original black leatherette over boards preserved; gilt title to spine and front board; rubbed spots along edges of boards; illustrated with full-page, black & white, engraved plates; overall in very good condition. A spectacular and quite amusing collection of caricatures of early-20th century Californians, with most of them notable railroad barons, politicians, merchants, etc. of San Francisco, but also some from Los Angeles, Sacramento, and a few other cities. Of the more colorful characters pictured are United States Federal Judge William Cary Van Fleet, California entrepreneur and engineer Henry 'H.C' Cutting, and so on. The illustrations are accomplished by 22 renowned San Francisco cartoonists, including Rube Goldberg, Chas Donnelly, Laura E. Foster, and Anna Fulton.
