[Rarebooks] FS: Dummy Copy of Franklin D. Roosevelt's ON OUR WAY

[Charles Agvent]

ROOSEVELT, Franklin Delano. ON OUR WAY. New York: The John Day Company, 
(1934). First Edition. A dummy copy with half-title, title page with 
copyright on verso, a printed explanatory page, an excerpt from Chapter 
7, a printed statement of upcoming publication, and several pages of 
order forms. The bulk of the full-sized book is composed of blank pages. 
The front endpaper contains a written statement initialed "JB" and dated 
1 April 1934 stating the book is an "Autographed Copy." Perhaps an April 
Fool's joke? Without the number "1" on the copyright page and the front 
dustwrapper flap, both previously believed to be points for the first 
printing but which should now be questioned as this copy came out before 
the book was officially published. Near Fine in a Very Good or better 
dustwrapper with foxing to the front panel. (#019193)        $750
