About This Item
Chicago: By Author, 1915. Book. Very Good+. Original Wraps. First Edition. Original pictorial wraps,109 pages, frontis, minor wear, light soiling to cover, housed in a custom clamshell case. Six-Guns 2033, "The first edition was out of print by the time it came off the press. From the time Siringo severed connections with the Pinkertons and started writing, he seemed determined to reveal what he knew of them, and they were just as determined to suppress his efforts. The book was printed by one company, bound by a second, and distributed by a third. Thus it was hard to trace, but the Pinkerton Agency soon obtained an injunction and had the court seize all copies on hand and destroy them. A small lot had been shipped west and escaped, thus making the book exceedingly rare." Graff 3808, Howes 519, Adams One-Fifty 126..
