40 p. + Frontis and text illustrations. 12mo. Original full cloth binding, stamped in gold. Original dust jacket. One of 750 copies privately printed by George Grady Press, New York for George Zabriskie as a Christmas greeting. Presented to Mr. & Mrs. (Walter) Klinefelter [the bibliographer and scholar from Red Lion, PA]. This story "was taken from Everybody's Magazine of August 1906 as republished without illustrations in Rolling Stones in 1912." George Albert Zabriskie (1860-1954) was President of the New York Historical Society from 1939-1947, and Honorary President from 1948 until his death in 1954. He was a great enthusiast of fine books and book binding, and an expert amateur hand-tooler and finisher of books. Though he lived in New York City, he "wintered" in Florida, and issued these charming Christmas keepsakes from his home: "The Doldrums" a Mission-Spanish Revival residence designed by Albert Pierce. A bright copy of a nice little keepsake. W69
