About This Item
Washington DC: Government Printing Office. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1883. First Edition. B00ADQKAF6 . A clean, sound, not ex-library. The binding is surprisingly strong, given the size of this massive volume. The boards are faded, but the gold emblem of a Native American chieftain is still bright on the cover. There are are few small dings and stains to the boards. The reports in the book include wonderful color plates. Much Native lore is found here, in particular a book-length paper on Zuni fetishes by Frank Hamilton Cushing. Surcharge on International shipping, due to massive size weight. ; Oversize .
