Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. (no place): Norm Sharp, 1940. Spelling, "Chilpangcingo" for Chilpancingo is as presented, but that is a spelling which, though rare, has been used. Five small original watercolor illustrations by the author/artist, Norm Sharp, of this apparently unique piece grace various pages. See scans… for some of these.Folio, black leather boards with gilt cover imprinting around comb-bound contents, untrimmed woven paper, unpaginated but [2] + 24 + [2}, though the 24 pages are printed only on the recto, making 12 pages (leaves). Presentation inscription by Sharp, with one of the little watercolor illustrations, on the feep, dated Christmas, 1940. An amazing item, hard to categorize with certainty. Possibly a one-off, this is either an imaginative short story occurring in dust of countryside Mexico, or, as presented.a true story; a supernatural one, at least as perceived by the author. It has a feel to it that is really quite hard to describe. Probably physically unique, certainly unique in concept. Rarity of one. L-fltschc1. Sharp, Norm (illustrator).
