About This Item
Empire Book Company, New York, 1908. Acceptable. First ed., first printing; 259 p., clean and completely unmarked--not ex-lib., no former owner's signature or plate; wonderful period photos and pen and ink vignettes; photo of Buffalo Bill on front board with still plain gilt lettering; oliver drab b oards scuffed and bumped and gutters cracked; this volume would greatly reward rebinding; and volume needs rebinding. The one serious flaw is the tearing in half of frontis. photo and tissue guard by someone ham-fisted. Fortunately no attempt at repair has been made, so it could be done competently by a professional. Possible signed inscription by Cody on that page, which would greatly increase value, but unless he wrote with very light pressure this is proabably a very good auto-pen deception.
