About This Item
Santa Barbara, CA: Wallace Hebberd. Very Good in Poor dust jacket. 1927. First Edition. Hard Cover. SIGNED on first page by Dora Amsden. Full-page illustrations by Joseph Paget-Fredericks. Unpaginated [68 pp] Tight binding, clean pages. Slight browning to boards with a minor tear to top at rear near spine. Otherwise Very Good. There is a tipped-in faded drawing to page opposite title page - we do not know if the book came with this drawing or if it was added by former owner. Dustjacket is split and shows wear with tears and chips along the edges and is now protected and held together by a new Mylar cover. Not ex-library. Signed books by Dora Amsden are very scarce. ; 4to; Signed by Author .
