Acquired from the estate of Birmingham, Alabama pathologist, bibliophile, and genealogist Dr. Albert Eugene Casey (1903-1982) who served as director of laboratories at Birmingham Baptist Hospitals from 1942-1972 and his wife Joanne Gunn Casey (1919-2023), a medical researcher who worked on the polio vaccine in the 1940s-1950s before joining her husband in studying genetic and hematological links to disease susceptibility and, in particular, cancer.

#64 OF A SPECIAL EDITION OF 110 COPIES PRINTED CHRISTMAS, 1922, ON ALEXANDRA JAPAN PAPER BY ALFRED A. KNOPF FOR HIS BOOKSELLER FRIENDS [this copy] FOR VERONICA S. HUTCHINSON (as stated on half-title verso). [6], 286 pages. Hardcover: H 25cm x L 16.5cm. No slipcase; no dust jacket (unknown as to which - or possibly both, it was issued but probably the former). Tan cloth spine with small edge losses to paper title label which unfortunately has practically indiscernible lettering; patterned paper boards worn at edges particularly at corners. Deckle edges. Purple patterned endpapers. Slight toning at page margins with some scattered foxing; interior leaves are otherwise clean. Binding is firm. Presumably this Christmas 1922 "special edition" precedes the Knopf trade edition; as is frequently the case with books printed near the end of the calendar year, the book's copyright is 1923. Presumably the giftee is author Veronica Somerville Hutchinson who wrote/edited approximately ten books (although none under the Knopf imprint) for children of which several were illustrated by Lois Lenski.
