About This Item
Blue Ribbon Books Bound in dark blue cloth with orange titles, 347pp. top edge stained orange, "Dedicated with some hesitation and infinite deference to various uncontrollable ladies". Besides the exceptional condition of this book what separates it is an old newspaper clipping tipped to the front end paper. It is some reminiscences of an old west barber who had an experience with Jane's famous temper and still had a scar on his head in 1938 to prove it. The barber, Johnny Mills was working in Laramie Wyoming when Jane came in for a shampoo. While she was bent over with her head in a basin a customer walked by and slapped her behind. Jane, known for her temper, stood up, grabbed a pitcher and, thinking the barber had done it threw the pitcher and hit poor Mills in the head.
