About This Item
Garden City, New York: Doubleday, Doran & Co., Inc., 1934. First Edition . Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Russell, Charles M. [jacket]. Remarkably Near Fine book in a Very Good, complete jacket. See all scans and description. Garden City: Doubleday Doran, 1934. First Edition (stated). Octavo, 318 pp. (viii + 1 + 309). Orange cloth with black-stamped spine title and design. Pictorial dustjacket. Book is superior condition, genuinely Near Fine, with only the original owner's bookplate and trace level soiling and wear keeping this copy from fine condition. The scarce price-clipped dustjacket has one large spine-top chip, light wear; VG with Charles M. Russell's jacket painting bright and clear. Another classic Arizona oater - desert towns, snow-capped mountains, outlaws, frontier women, hostile Native Americans, and things that bite or sting [not the women]. But rugged Tennessee Bob can handle it all, thanks to the love of his lady, Anne Pritchard. The prolific Seltzer, who earned a place as an author of thrilling westerns alongside Zane Grey, Robert Ames Bennet, Clarence Mulford and Argye Briggs, also wrote The Ranchman, Silverspurs, The Vengeance of Jefferson Gawne, The Range Boss, Arizona Jim, The Two-Gun Man, and others. This is a handsome example, quite scarce in the jacket. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course - not a bag. L201
