Also featured is an article on the Shoshone Falls in Idaho penned by Alvah Milton Kerr, remembered for his dime novel and digest stories of the American west and speculative subjects. Also featured are a number of short stories and poems. Pictorial ad section of several pages at rear. This copy is clean and neat with just a pair of short tears to the spine edge and mild shelf evidence to covers. Quite scarce; only the NY Public Library holds a few physical issues. VG+.
