Lot Details

Lot 86
[HUNTING] JOHNSON, FRANK. D. An October in New Brunswick.
Cleveland, Ohio: self-published, 1908. Full dark brown leather, possibly pig, lettered on the upper cover. 11 1/2 x 9 inches (29 x 22 cm); 72 pp., single-sided typed (or mimeographed) text on heavy dark brown paper, with 34 tipped in original photographs (gelatin silver print and platinum) ranging from 2 x 4 to 6 x 9 inches. Spine replaced, binding worn, internally fresh.
A rare work, presumably printed in a very few copies; the only example we locate is at the University of New Brunswick. Moose were hunted, and there are several wonderful images of the guide with his birch bark moose call. At the time this work was prepared, Johnson was the Secretary and Treasurer of the Leader Buggy and Supply Co. in Cleveland.
