Binding has a few points of minor stress but otherwise firm. A good+ copy in only a good dust jacket with the author's four-line ink inscription upon the front free endpaper: "For Hans and Big | May she never be Bigger | Crosby Gaige | Feb. 19. 1942." Provenance form a Meridian, Mississippi estate with the correct appellations for "Hans and Big" unknown. One of the classic American cocktail mixology references by New York City theatre producer, author, and bon vivant Crosby Gaige with delightful illustrations by The New Yorker [Magazine] graphic artist Rea Irvin, a Foreword by journalist and gourmand Lucius Beebe, and concluding essay by food critic Lawton Mackall.
