Hardcover. First Edition. 182 pages. 24 x 15 cm. This copy has two important book plates, that of Phil Townsend Hanna and Marcus Crahan. Both Hanna and Townsend were members of the Zamarano Club - both active in the same Los Angeles bibliophilic circle. As Hanna passed away before Crahan, we believe this book went from Hanna's library to Crahan's. Crahan's bookplate was made for him in the 1930s by Hungarian-born designer Franz Geritz (1895-1945).
