ANDERSON, Sherwood. HORSES AND MEN. TALES, LONG AND SHORT, FROM OUR
AMERICAN LIFE. New York: B. W. Huebsch, Inc., 1923. First Edition. Fine
in light orange cloth with a perfect paper label. The dust jacket is
bright and intact--with no chipping--but there is a small closed tear
which has caused wrinkling on the lower front panel. This copy has been
SIGNED by the author on the half-title page and there is a small
notation in pencil on the front blank: "autograph by Anderson for
F.W.S." This copy was previously owned by Frederick W. Skiff (noted
Portland rare book collector and author of ADVENTURES IN AMERICANA) and
then became part of the Estelle Doheny Collection of American
Literature. Both the Skiff and Doheny bookplates are present. Signed
copies of Anderson's books in fine condition are becoming very difficult
to find, especially in dustwrappers. Fine in a close to Fine
dustwrapper. (#010754) $750.00
