Golden coloured softcovers, woodcut engraved illust. banner, ads on rear cover (minor bumping to corners, couple very minor closed tears), still VG copy. First edition of this scarce periodical including the well-illustrated article by Elizabeth Baker Bohan laying claim to the "true" home of Ramona which was located very close by to the historic San Luis Rey Mission which served as the backdrop for Helen Hunt Jackson's wildly popular 1884 historical novel decrying the fate of the southern California American Indians, and the Californios.
