BECKY'S BIRTHDAY

Tasha Tudor. New York: The Viking Press, 1960. 4th Printing 1967. 10 1/4" x 8 3/16"

47 pp. + [7] pp. A very clean library binding of the last printing from Viking. This copy is special for two signatures: Tasha Tudor and Gretchen Brown. Gretchen Brown was a niece of Tudor's patron Ned Hills of Mill Hall, Pa. Gretchen worked with her uncle in his shop and sometimes helped host book signings when Tudor traveled to Mill Hall. Tudor only signed the book; Ms Brown also dated her own inscription January 14, 1972. She also managed the dispersal of her uncle's business estate The Dutch Inn and Tasha Tudor Room, including material sold through Doris Frohnsdorff, Gaithersberg, Md. The library binding of this book has a sturdier cloth cover imprinted with the design of the dust jacket. The hinges are reinforced with a buckram tape. The original decorated endpapers are not glued onto the boards, rather they are bound in as pages iv-v and [50-51]. Dust jacket with gold foil label in mylar.
