BURRO PICTURES: Photographs
Manitou, Colorado Springs: Gowdy-Simmons Press & W. A. Tracht, 1902. First Edition. Soft cover. Collectible Very Good. Item #2105090
Apparently the 1st and only edition. Only three copies found in worldwide libraries. Oblong cord-tied brown and maroon pictorial wraps, 7 1/4" x 10". Twenty-eight (28) half-tone photos of burros, most in humorous situations. Photos are by Tracht who is also cited as Publisher. The halftone plates printed by Frank Reistle, Denver. Stain lower left corner of front cover. Half of the back cover is darker than the other half. This is not a stain, but perhaps cause by sunlight differential. It seems strange to call a photo book of burros rare, but this one is.
Price: $201.50
