Octavo, original cloth. Signed on the front free endpaper by John Wayne, Roy Rogers, Walter Pidgeon, and Gabby Hayes and inscribed on the rear free endpaper by Gene Autry. Very good in a near fine dust jacket. Ownership name. With a note from the author laid in. A wonderful example of this classic work signed by five icons of American Westerns.
