    Hardcover. First Edition (1947), so stated. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. First Edition (1947), so stated. Good+ shows wear to the extremities with scant loss to the corner tips and a small scuff which exposes the underlying board at the top edge of the front panel; faint but pervasive overall soiling to the tan background field of the panels; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. The expected light tanning to the text pages. The slightest bowing to the front board. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, plates, or labels. A moderately used copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing some wear and some cosmetic flaws. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8.25 x 5.5 x 0.85 inches). viii, 248 pages.Tan cloth over boards with tan titles and designs on a dark brown field at the front panel and backstrip. Language: English. Weight: 13.5 ounces. Hardback: Lacks DJ. This rare book is a one-of-a-kind. The story of the early 20th century bohemian community of Oceano, or, current day Pismo Beach, California. The "Dunites" who inhabited the Pismo Beach Dunes in the 1930's had a profound influence on most of the later non-conformist, counter-culteral scenes like the Beats, SoCal Polynesian and Tiki culture, and ultimately the Hippies. Steinbeck hung out there and read Tortilla Flat to them as he wrote it. Luther Whiteman was thereand knows of that which he speaks. A rare gem. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.
