Description
This is a very good copy of the later “Blue Ribbon” edition, without dust jacket. Movie star Douglas Fairbanks’ elaborate crested bookplate is affixed to the pastedown. Save for some fading to the cloth, more pronounced along the spine, the book is virtually mint and the contents are fine
Robert Benchley and Douglas Fairbanks were close friends and drinking buddies. Fairbanks’ library contained copies of most of Benchley’s books.
