Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This small, scarce booklet on American novelist Myrtle Reed is made up of two separate essays : "Myrtle Reed as Her Friends Know Her" by Ethel S. Colon; and "Why Myrtle Reed's Books are Popular" by Norma Bright Carson. There is no doubt the novels of Reed were popular - you may remember seeing the lovely gold, pale green, pink, and cream floral decorations against cover background in lavender, pale blue, buff, etc. Many of those bindings were designed by the famous book designer, Margaret Armstrong, making the books pop out from the general dull looking covers of other books. Laid within the booklet is a letter, written in cursive on the personal stationery of Mrs. Arthur J. Simpson, to a person un-named, about San Antonio society. The letter starts : " Though there is a large part of this book which is of local interest only, I think it does represent a picture of a phase of Texas life which is not known generally outside of this section, a manner of living transferred directly from the 'Old South?, etc? The letter continues onto a second sheet. It is penned in ink, but it is not signed. It is not absolutely clear that the book mentioned in the letter is the one offered here. There is a note from the publisher, on the recto of the rear cover : "These Papers are reprinted with the permission of the 'Book News Monthly', in which they came into publication in January 1911. Since the monograph was put into type, the work and the life of Myrtle Reed have come to a close. It has been thought best, however, to make no change in the text of the essays as originally printed. The words of discriminating appreciation given at the time to the writings of Myrtle Reed and to the character of their author are as true and as pertinent as when first Written." - G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York, August 25, 1911. TITLE : Myrtle Reed as Her Friends Know Her & Why Myrtle Reed's Books are Popular AUTHORS : Ethel S. Colon & Norma Bright Carson IMPRINT : G.P. Putnam's Sons PLACE : New York DATE : (August 1911) EDITION : First Edition STATUS : OP -- Scarce DETAILS : Small booklet. Contains a Frontispiece portrait of Myrtle Reed by F. Soule Campbell, and 11 small pictorial vignettes which merge with the text, printed in olive green. 16 pages; 4 7/8" x 7 3/8"; stapled wraps - the front cover has an oval hole in the middle through which the frontispiece portrait of Reed is visible. The text is printed on calendered paper. The final page presents a list of Reed's books. The inside of the rear cover has the Publisher's Note. SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES : Folded and laid with in the book is a two page letter, penned in ink, written on the stationery of Mrs. Arthur J. Simpson. I am assuming the hand that wrote the letter was hers. The letter discusses some interesting things about San Antonio, Texas. The letter consists of two sheets measuring 6" x 6 7/8", with letterhead at top; her cursive hand is penned in blue ink.
