PARKMAN, Francis. THE OREGON TRAIL. New York: Limited Editions Club, 
1943. Large octavo (6-5/8" x 10") bound in full tan saddle leather with 
title and decorations by Maynard Dixon burnt into the leather. Edited 
from the author's notebooks by Mason Wade with an introduction by him. 
Illustrated by Maynard Dixon with pen drawings and paintings in color. 
Copy #323 of 1500 SIGNED by the illustrator on the colophon page. One of 
the more fragile books of the press. Light foxing to the endpapers, the 
text is clean and fresh; mild wear to the corners and the heel of the 
spine, the head of the spine with a fingernail-sized chip and the 
remaining leather slightly pulled away. Very Good, lacking the chemise 
and slipcase. (#019636)        $185
