About This Item
Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1971 Book. Fine. Hardcover. Third and best printing of this classic. "This is copy number 94 of a certified Limited Edition of 300 copies especially printed and bound for the 101 Ranch Rodeo Foundation, Inc.". Foreword by Glenn Shirley. Pp. xxx, 255 plus 53 photographs. Map endpapers. Appendices, index. Full light brown leather, gilt. A very fine, as new copy with pictorial dust jacket, as issued (fading to jacket spine, as usual). Famous western author Glenn Shirley provides a stunning historical foreword for this printing. This issue is also the first to incorporate further illustrations from the original and very rare 1937 first edition (the second was that same year). The 101 Ranch is considered the best history of this great Oklahoma ranch and its owners. Collings covers the founding in the 1870's to the later Wild West Show, continued ranching operations, and final bankruptcy in the 1930's. This special printing is super scarce. [First edition: Adams, Herd: 504; Adams, Six-Score: 22; Rader: 870]..
