North Hills, PA: Bird & Bull Press, 1970. Limited edition. Hardcover. Near fine. 9-1/2 by 12 inches. 13 pages plus catalogue facsimile in pocket at rear board. Cloth spine with marbled paper boards. Typical slight discoloration in gutters which continues into text, but fades as it gets away from boards, appears to be offset from glue in binding. Otherwise in excellent condition. Neat previous owner's inscription on front free end paper. Number 56 of the 160 copies printed for members of the Philobiblon Club on handmade paper (from a total edition of 250 copies). A fabulous story of one of the world's great biblio hoaxes. Neat inscription on front pastedown from Mort Whitehead to Robert K. Johnson.
