Item description from seller

First printing. A salesman's sample book with an unusual approach highlighting the inexpensive cost of the magazine: "This volume designed to show how one issue of the Saturday Evening P{ost would look if published in book form." Note on the title page that it was produced exclusivly for the use of authorized agents for The Saturday Evening Post and an advertising blurb on the first page that it is "simply a reprint of one copy. If published in this form it would cost 1.50 from a bookseller. As one of 52 issues included in the year's subscription for the periodical it costs the reader from FOUR TO FIVE CENTS." Includes stories by May Edginton, Hugh Kennedy, Octavus Roy Cohen and others, an article on the League of Nations ("Spineless Leagues and Faceless Nations") and more. Illustrated with drawings throughout, including a full color frontispiece of the Norman Rockwell cover. 382 pp. Very good overall in very dark green cloth with white lettering (lettering on spine rubbed and barely visible, spotting to edges of textblock, but tight and sturdy).…

Store description

Bookfever.com - the name used by Volk and Iiams, Booksellers- specializes in first editions of twentieth century literature, with an emphasis on women authors, African American, Native American and Latin American authors - plus mystery & detective fiction, science fiction & fantasy, poetry and children's & illustrated books. We try to offer many uncommon books, and have a large selection of first books, and books by authors who are less frequently collected. Of the approximately 60,000 volumes in stock, the majority are hardcover first editions, although we also stock vintage science fiction paperbacks as well as sf digests and pulps. We also have a large selection of books signed by the author and uncorrected proof copies. Only about 50% of our stock is catalogued, so please inquire if you are searching for specific titles. We have been selling books by mail order and on the internet since 1993. We have a large booth dedicated to books (called Books Upstairs) at the Antiques Upstairs Mall, 5 Main Street, Jackson, CA. (open every day from 10-5) The emphasis there is on Western Americana, children¿s books and inexpensive reading copies. In 1998 we relocated our main business from Sacramento to the Sierra foothills of Amador County, about 35 miles east of downtown Sacramento and between Ione & Sutter Creek. There, on 10 acres of rolling oak-covered hills, we built a "bookhouse" for our books. Call us at 209-274-6960 or contact us by email heyyou@bookfever.com) Our web page is https://bookfever.com/ Traditional bookseller grading used - fine is our highest grade (an "A"), very good is above average (a "B), good is average (a "C"). All significant flaws are described; dust jackets are protected by archival covers, and books are packed carefully for shipping. We welcome questions by email or phone.…
