Princeton University, 1919. Boards. Very Good +. A handsome copy of the 1920 Princeton yearbook (the "Bric-a-Brac"), with 3 separate references to F. Scott Fitzgerald. The first, on pg. 139, lists Fitzgerald's military service ("2d Lieutenant--45th Infantry--Fort Taylor"), The 2nd, on pg. 384, clearly shows Fitzgerald, right in the center of the front row, in a large photo of the Class of 1918. And the 3rd and final reference to Fitzgerald, on pg. 387, lists his business address as the "Lincoln National Bank, East 42nd St., New York City". This copy has held up very nicely to boot. Clean and Near Fine in its dark, bevelled boards, with bright gilt-design along the front panel and bright gilt-titling to the spine. Tasteful student bookplate ("Tom Roberts--54 Campbell") at the front pastedown, otherwise clean as could be internally. Oblong octavo, gilt top-edge, wonderful period ads at the rear.
