Item description from seller

251 pp., illustrations, gilt lettering to cover and spine. A fine, tight, unmarked, unblemished, full leather limited edition copy with no jacket as issued and no book plates or markings. Liai in is an original promotional/order form for the book. Only 50 copies of this rare limited full leather edition, in Arizona Cowhide, were produced to complete the collections of the charter subscribers of the Limited Editions of Arizona Silhouettes. This is #34 of 50 copies. Originally published in 1892, Calabazas existed and was real. This book, of course, is fiction. The names of the people in most part and the specific incidents recorded are the products of Mr. Brown's imagination, but old timers will attest to the fact that none of the chapters are exaggerations of the time and place. The Calabazas Land and Mining Company really existed. The Calabazas, Tucson and Northwestern Rail Road never matured beyond the dream stage. Rarely offered. COLLECTOR QUALITY.
