A privately printed compilation of literary pieces assembled by L. Montedonico and circulated among friends and acquaintances. As noted in the foreword, the selections were chosen for a personal audience and were not intended to appeal equally to all readers. The book was issued in a limited edition strictly for private distribution and reflects the informal literary circles of Southern California in the mid-1930s.

Bound in blue paper boards with a tan cloth spine, with gilt title over blue paste-down.

It is in Very Good condition with noticeable shelf wear and staining to the boards and spine, bumped and rubbed corners, and general handling wear. The interior remains clean. A bookplate states, “This book number 36 belongs to Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Trotter, presented with the compliments of L. Montedonico.” The limitation page notes that the edition was limited to 150 copies for private distribution only. Very Good. Item #52
