189829929New York: The Blanchard Press 1898. Fifth edition. Illustrated throughout with humorous lithographic drawings and lettered captions by the author. 1 vols. 11 x 8-1/4 inches. Original lettered burlap wrappers multcolored paper label of a golfer on upper cover cover edges slightly frayed first and last few pages loose two with slight chips but overall an attractive copy of a fragile work. Fifth edition. Illustrated throughout with humorous lithographic drawings and lettered captions by the author. 1 vols. 11 x 8-1/4 inches. Humorous 1898 Golfing Alphabet. A most amusing alphabet in rhymed couplets mostly focusing on the misadventures of neophyte or simply inept golfers; printed on gray stapled coated stock with an inherently fragile burlap cover this is a book almost doomed to self-distruct; the publisher's advertisement herein describes a hardier format including a buckram binding which presumably replaced earlier copies such as this one.
