first edition Paperback
1905 · St. Paul, MN
St. Paul, MN: The Minnesota Historical Society, 1905. Paperback. xvi, 448p., 12 portraits on inserted stock, textblock sans wrapper, all edges heavily deckled and many leaves unopened. The sewn signatures look stringy with exposed threads and lumps of binder's paste, but we see no breaks. We are presuming that our last leaf, #447/8, is the final and completing leaf. No ownership or other marks; an ugly reading copy. (Inventory #: 193478)
