Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. DEAR DAD LETTERS FROM NEW GUINEA ILLUSTRATED BY BEN S. BOYCE 1928. I am pleased to offer an interesting chronicle of a young man s expedition to the wilds of then Papua New Guinea which at the time was under a custodianship mandate by Australia. Visiting the area was cons…idered quite dangerousthere were still unknown tribes in the wilds there, many of them apparently practicing cannibalism! One of the terms of his visit was that he post a weekly letter recounting his experiences to his father who was a newspaper publisher in Chicago and who would see to it that the letters were published. This book is a compilation of those letters published posthumously after the son died at the young age of 43, in 1928. The four-month expedition, in the company of seasoned New Guinea hands, took place before the onset of World War I although the exact dates are not mentioned in the book. Please find then: Illustrated Dear Dad Letters from New Guinea, by Ben S. Boyce. This medium-sized but relatively thin hard cover book (6 x 8 ¾ inches, 125 pages) was published by the W.D. Boyce Company of Chicago, dated 1928 (his father s publishing company). The book is bound in handsome black cloth with bright gilt titles on the cover. As mentioned, the book is well illustrated with b&w photos from the expedition throughout and some color maps of Papua New Guinea and the Region at the rear endpaper. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The gilt titles and framing on the front cover are very slightly worn but still fine and handsome. Inside, the book is unmarked and the pages and photos are clean and bright throughout. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. xviii, 125p., presswork on semi-glazed alkaline paperstock, profusely illustrated with b&w photos taken on-site in unmapped New Guinea, hardbound in black cloth boards titled and ruled in gilt. Rear endsheets are doublespread maps in colors. Front endsheets appear to be constituted of a cancel onlay that emphasizes th…e memorial function of this issue; p.125 may also be a cancel/insert. Condition: several inches of the gold title-border have flaked away, there is edgewear of extremities, but hinges are good, the text clean and unmarked. A good toi very good copy. The Boyce company advertises other items it publishes, even on this title page itself, namely "The Blade and Leger, Extra Money, Movie Romances, Illustrated South America". &c &c. The probable triviality of these other books need not impugn the item in hand, which is quite interesting; the deceased had a knack for people of every sort. He died young (and sorely missed) of an embolism.

Boyce was so saddened over his son's death that his own health suffered, which led to his own death shortly after. Rarely offered in this nice condition.

Ben Boyce had a single-minded focus to travel to New Guinea and solicited his father's influence to secure the permissions required to the island considered too dangerous for visitors. In exchange, he promised to write his father a letter once a week during the expedition; the letters were to be published in the Chicago Saturday Blade newspaper.
