Beschreibung

8vo. Burgundy cloth with gilt lettering. 176pp. Frontispiece, illustrations, map and decorative endpapers. Near fine. Handsome, tight first edition of these laid back recollections and anecdotes prepared (to cite title page) "on his Ninetieth Birthday April 21, 1969" from the hard-hitting lawyer, civic activist and New York states attorney (1879-1971) who also ran as Republican for governor of that state in 1930, losing to Franklin D. Roosevelt. He boldly inscribes and signs the half-title page (on his 90th birthday!) in blue ballpoint "To my very dear / friend and colleague, / Thomas A Shaw, Jr., and / to his lovely wife / Charles H Tuttle / April 21, 1969." Shaw was an attorney with Breed, Abbott & Morgan in New York, and in later years Tuttle served as counsel emeritus there; he and Shaw served as co-counsel on many high-level cases together. Tuttle kept a summer home at Lake George, New York, and named Halcyon Press after this home. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 47062
