Spine professionally restored, a 1963 clipping about Chow tipped in to rear endpapers. Gin Chow is an oddity, and I'd love to see a modern biography of him. Right during the yellow peril, he becomes…famous as a fortune teller--specifically about rain forecasting. He additionally was the plaintiff in one of California's seminal water rights lawsuits.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dustjacket included. First Edition. ISBN . B0007E05NQ Hardback. First Scribners Printing as designated by the Letter A on the copyright page. A very interesting associational item. Book is crammed with inscriptions and autographs from Boeing personnel associated with the building of the Flying fo…rtress in Seattle. Probably no one famous as the inscriptions all have shop steward, secretary, foreman etc. after them, but there is a lot of them so who knows. Otherwise book is a Tight sound copy in Very Good condition. Dustjacket is in Good to Very Good condition with some edgewear and a eight inch repaired closed tear to the left corner area of the front cover. The dustjacket has been placed in a Brodart protective cover by us to protect it and it looks much better than described. . This does not affect the dustjacket in any way, as all taping is done on the outside of the protector. No Signature.
