About This Item
Garden City: Doubleday Page & Company, 1922 Lightly soiled boards. Very slight tilt to spine. The provenance of this copy is fascinating. The George Eastman House is rebuilding the library of George Eastman with the exact same copies he owned. As titles are located with his bookplate they replace other copies that the local community of Rochester, NY donated to 'stand-in' for the originals.When the originals are located, these stand-ins find a new home. This book has a book plate on the inner flap indicating this was a gift to the Eastman House.. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket.
