About This Item
Printed for Subscribers Only / (Moffat and Yard), 1/1/1916. Hardcover. Good/NO JACKET. Bookplate of Russell and, former opera singer, Lorraine Gowens on the front pastedown. The boards are heavily worn with bumped corners (boards exposed on the bottom corners), lightly frayed spine ends, front panel offsetting, and rear panel spotting. The spine is sun washed. There is light foxing on the endpapers, some occasional soiling, and a small bookseller's label is on the rear pastedown. The binding is still reasonably tight. A good reading copy of this uncommon Terhune title.

About Trilby & Co. Books
Trilby & Co. Books is located in Northern California. The company was founded years ago by a Shetland Sheepdog named Trilby. Trilby's message to her family was brief and direct - the sale of books would increase disposable income and improve the quality of provisions in her food dish. My name is McTavish (picture above). I am the current CEO of this company, and I approve of her message. Oh, by the way, my speciality is literature, with an emphasis on first editions and signed books.
