By Ridgely Hunt & George S. Chappell (Illustrated by John Held Jr.)
New York: Coward-McCann, Inc, 1930. Pictorial boards. Very Good/Very Good. John Held Jr.. The 1930 1st edition of this ribald send-up of the Temperance movement, in its John Held Jr-illustrated dustjacket. Solid and VG (very light spotting along the upper-boards and the top-edge) in a bright, price-intact ($2.00), VG dustjacket, with chipping at the tips and one chip (the size of a quarter) along the front panel's lower-edge. Light soiling and just a bit of staining as well to the front panel. Octavo, wickedly --and wonderfully-- illustrated throughout by the formidable American cartoonist and illustrator John Held Jr. (1889-1958).
