About This Item
Cleveland: The Rowfant Club, 1939. Paperback. Very Good. [4], 40, [8] p.: illustrations; 19 cm. Grey wrappers with paper label on front wrapper, printed in brown: "Rowfantia, An Occasional Publication of the Rowfant Club, Number XII, December 1939." This is number 14 of a limited edition of 150 copies printed on Hazelbourn paper by the Southworth-Anthoensen Press, Portland, Maine, in Dec. 1939. The Rowfant Club was founded in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1892 and remains a club for those interested in book collecting and publishing; however, membership requires a penis, which seems unrelated to either book collecting or publishing. In Very Good Condition: 1-cm. closed tear from fore-edge of front wrapper; discoloration on back wrapper and at lower fore-edge of last few leaves; otherwise, clean and tight.
