Livingston, Montana. Clark City Press. [1976] 1990. Quarto (11 x 9). 163 pp. plus colophon. First Clark City Press Edition. Signed and with a brief inscription by Russ "For Diane / Kentfield - July 15 / Russell Chatham" / [Papermill Creek / Tomales Bay monogram] / "1991." Laid-in the book is a Striped Bass fly dressed by Russ on a size 3/0 saltwater hook; it measures 5 inches in length, and it too is as scarce as candid booksellers. Also accompanying the book is a black and white print showing a striper illustrated by Russ, 7 x 1 1/2 inches; it was drawn on thick mat paper, which measures 10 x 13 1/2 inches, and it too was completed in a small limitation. The text is the same as the 1976 first edition, differing only with a new Introduction by Russ and added black and white photos, many showing Bill Schaadt and Russ Chatham fly fishing. Text drawings by the author. Chatham's book is, in my biased opinion, the best work on fly fishing published during the last 40 years. The book is bound in cream cloth with gilt titles on the spine. Photo end papers. Pictorial dust jacket. Both are in fine condition. The striper fly and the print are also fine. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 010609
