A letter of John Claflin to his children, July 24, 1918, and other memoranda [a memorandum July 24, 1925]

Claflin, John [McMurtrie,, Douglas C., presswork]

New York: privately printed, 1925. 31p., a slim over-the-top production in full morocco with raised bands, gilt galore, t.e.g., hand-marbled endpapers overlapped with gilt-ruled leather borders, in very good condition, small scuffed bits at the head, Uber-bookman McMurtrie is permitted a tiny credit verso title page.

A limited issue of "a few copies" for "personal friends" of the family. The text revolves around a still-rankling investment that went sour; the presswork and binding are spectacular.
