Description:
New York: Antiquarian Press, 1959 2 volumes. Reprint of the excessively rare 1895 first edition. One of 550 copies. New introduction by J. Frank Dobie. Folio. 12x8¾ inches. 743pp. (paginated continuously) plus colored frontispiece and numerous illustrations, mostly from photographs. Blind and gilt-stamped cowhide, gilt over brown buckram. A very fine, as new set with matching publisher's slipcase. Includes the new introduction by J. Frank Dobie. "One of the `Big Four' cattle books, and after Freeman's Prose and Poetry, the most important on the subject. The book contains a great wealth of information, and is a cornerstone in any range library ... Supposedly most of the first edition was destroyed in a warehouse fire, hence its rarity today. It is a vital and useful book" (Reese). [Howes II: C-826; McVicker: B-114; Reese, Six-Score: 24]. [For the first edition, see: Adams, Herd: 593; Dobie: p.100; Dykes, Kid: 29; Graff: 891; Howes I: C-820; Howes II: C-826; Vandale: 44]..

Folio. Later calf in matching style, spine gilt, with original front and rear panels laid down, including original gilt-stamped front panel featuring vignette of a longhorn. Marbled edges, portion of original gilt backstrip preserved and laid in. Binder's stamp to rear pastedown, contemporary ownership inscription in pencil to preliminary blank. The color frontispiece, not issued with all copies, is present here. Small closed tear to bottom of pp.299-302, not affecting text. Minimal foxing and soiling, plates with some light foxing. Small tape repair to edge of p.742. Very good. One of the so-called "big four" cattle books, and in our experience, the most difficult to obtain. The size and nature of the binding on this book often results in its being found in poor…

Saint Louis: Published by Woodward & Tiernan Printing Co., 1895., 1895. First edition. First edition. Thick quarto. Calf, stamped in gilt and blind, [1], 743 pp., colored frontispiece, illustrated, plates, portraits, index to historical section, index to biographies, index to illustrations. Colored frontispiece by Gean Smith. BTB 34 says it best "This compendium on Texas cattle and cattlemen is also one of the rarest Texas books. J. Frank Dobie once said: 'In 1928 I traded a pair of store-bought boots to my Uncle Neville Dobie for his copy of this book. A man would have to throw in a young Santa Gertrudis bull now to get a copy.' Conceived as a mug book to be sold primarily to the people whose biographies appeared in it, the final published book contained so much of value on the cattle industry that it has become a classic in its field. Nearly 400 pages are devoted to biographies of some 449 Texas cattlemen, and these sketches are a goldmine for research into the cowboy and cattle…
