Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition in book form (text first printed in the California Historical Society in installments from June 1925 to March 1927). A ' limited edition' (Charles L. Camp states in the introduction to the 1960 edition that only 330 copies were printed). On the title page right above '1928' there is an affixed label with print that reads 'Cleveland' (and then below it) 'The Arthur H. Clark Company'. Across from the title page there is a frontispiece photograph of James Clyman. It is affixed at the top edge and not at the bottom edge. It is in perfect condition. You can see the blue covers in the photographs provided. There isn't any staining. At certain angles under a light you will see some light dust soiling. The gilt lettering on the front cover is quite bright, however on the spine it is quite faded. You can see it and read it but it isn't easy. It says James Clyman on the top and California Historical Society on the bottom. There is minimal wear on the covers, a little bumping/creasing at the front and rear bottom corners (no rubbing at either), a speck-sized spot of rub-through at the top right-hand corner, a few light creases on the spine, and a small tear and bit of loss at the bottom edge of the spine (see second photo). All six edges (top, bottom, and middle) are free of wear. I regard the binding as very solid. I turned over every page in the book. I didn't see any cracks. There aren't any at the junctures between the inside covers and front and rear end papers. The pages are nicely tight. The blank first front end paper has a good amount of spotting/foxing, though it's on the light side. It's verso and the blank second end paper, front and back, have just a little bit of spotting and it is very light. Same with the California Historical Society, Special Publication No. 3 page, and with the frontispiece page and the title page, just a very small amount of light, receded, spotting. As I scroll now through the pages of the book I'm not picking up spotting. However, when I turned over every page slowly, some did have a few spots, very light, and always on the white margin of the page. The great majority of the pages of text have no spotting. I would describe the pages as being in excellent condition. If this book was read it was read with conscious care. There are three illustrations, the frontispiece ( a tipped-in sepia-tone photograph of Clyman), a facsimile of a page in Clyman's diary of 1845, and a portrait of Hannah Clyman. There are three maps: 1) a Route of the South Pass Expedition, 2) The Oregon-California Trail in 1845, and 3) The Hasting's Cut-Off in 1846. This last map is a fold-out. It has a neat thin vertical crease next to one of the two normal folds (to my eye having no effect on the superior quality of the map's condition). It is otherwise in perfect condition. Perfect is the way I would describe the condition of the other two maps. They are all on a cellophane-like paper. There is a thin broken line of spotting down the white margins of the two pages the foldout map lies between. Also on the verso of both of these pages. The portrait of Hannah Mecombs Clyman has some very light spotting on parts of the white semi-glossy paper and there is a decent amount on the text pages preceding and following the photograph. There was no spotting/foxing on any of the maps and none on the text pages on either side of the other two maps. Here is something quite positive to take note of: in turning over every page I didn't see any instances of soiling. Also, I didn't see any conspicuous creasing . However, the bump to the bottom edge of the rear cover created a semi-crease at the very tip of the bottom corners of perhaps 75 pages. It is very inconspicuous. Finally, there are no markings or attachments in this book. And there are no names or any kind of writing to be found anywhere. There have been 2 auction sales since 2000. $632.00 (inflation-adjusted ($875.00) in 2003, and $431.00 ($531.00 adjusted) in 2006.
