New York: Bobbs-Merrill, [circa 1934; c.r. 1933]. 251 pages. Illustrated with 70 full-page reproductions of photographs (including the frontispiece, all printed with the text). Original red cloth with black spine lettering. 22 x 16 cm. Very good plus in very good or better dust jacket. Light soiling to top edge; free endpapers partially tanned; a little marginal soiling or foxing to the half-title; marginal smudge to one plate, not affecting image. Old gift inscription on the front free endpaper. The jacket has some light edgewear and a few tiny tears, with a few old tape reinforcements on the verso, and some rather faint soiling. Still an attractive example. The binding is sharp, the text and plates are clean, and the jacket is bright with none of the usual fading to the spine panel. EARLY TRADE EDITION AND THE FIRST BY THIS PUBLISHER. Uses the same sheets as the first trade edition published by Robert Ballou (first printing,1933; second, 1934) with a new title page. Ballou's imprint is retained on the verso of the half-title. The acquisition of this title by Bobbs-Merrill (the publisher of Julia Peterkin's literary works) reflects the end of Robert Ballou's short-lived venture to establish his own publishing house (1932-35), which succumbed to the financial pressures of the Depression. See Ada Fan, "Robert O. Ballou," in Dzwonkoski, ed., "America n Literary Publishing Houses, 1900-1980", p. 33. Scarce with the dust jacket in this condition. Turnbull V, p. 351.
