New York: The Derrydale Press, 1933. First edition, one of an indeterminate number of copies. Log book of 140 pages, providing data for 70 races. 1 vols. 8vo. Original white canvas cloth, with blue printing and ornaments; slight toning to spine, pencil notes erased from first three pages, else fine and attractive. First edition, one of an indeterminate number of copies. Log book of 140 pages, providing data for 70 races. 1 vols. 8vo. An extraordinarily difficult Derrydale to find. Siegel believes the low survival rate is due primarily to "a high rate of water-damaged copies" and the fact that those used as diaries have not come onto the market. A nice copy of a rare book.



This copy has been used and has neat pen entries from 6/6/36-7/16/38. Siegel 75; Frazier D-5-a
