Fairfax Ca: Printed by Arlen & Clara Philpott [also ascribed to Grabhorn-Hoyem] for The Book Club of California, 1977. Hardcover. 26p., title page decorated with an invented armorial shield in four colors and gilt, initial text letter in red, six small line illustrations, one of 400 copies, signed by illustrator Angelo at the colophon. Hardbound in laid-lined grey-green paper over 8.5x5.5 inch boards, spine-titled gilt, is faintly sunned at spine, a very good copy. Publication No. 155.
FYI, the clue that the Grabhorn-Hoyem firm involved themselves with presswork comes from a note laid into another copy we have seen.
