Bronxville, NY: Sarah Lawrence College, 1945. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo. Signature-bound in brown paper wraps. 122oo + unpaginated Music Supplement laid in at rear. Inscribed on the title page, "To Mr. & Mrs. G.R. MacCarthy with the compliments of the author"--presumably Betta MacCarthy, whose contribution, a thirteen page essay on Alexander Hamilton, opens the volume. Also laid in is a note, presumably also from MacCarthy, which reads: 'This is quite an interesting book -- It is put out by the faculty every 4 years for the purpose of "showing" the countries educators & stuff what S.L. students do. It is to make up for not having grades & academic rating & so on. I counted & about 14 of the contributors are on scholarships. As a contributor I was given 2 copies; the other students don't get it." Other contributions include fiction, poetry (both original and in translation), a section of black-and-white plates of student artwork, sculpture and architectural designs, a scientific study on "The Effect of Music on Visual Acuity," a comparative analysis of nursery school paintings, and the laid-in Musical Supplement consisting of three brief scores. Very good with softened/rounded corners and moderate wear and soiling to wraps. Binding remains strong; contents clean and unmarked. A unique document of Sarah Lawrence history, unaccounted for both in OCLC and the trade.
