Sobre este artículo
[San Marino, California]: [Huntington Library], 1939. First Edition. Softcover. Near fine. [20] pp. Color gift-wrapping tissue over paper wrappers, side-stapled, letterpress label on front cover. 1939 Christmas Seal stamp below colophon. Small stains and light toning and wear in tissue, tiny stain at fore-edge of first three leaves, else near fine.
Fourth issue of the annual Huntington Library Christmas party keepsake journal, which ran from 1936 to 1970. The running joke of the present issue was economic anixiety, with a dedication "to the proposition that just maybe perhaps it might possibly be better if this economy thing doesn't reach too far into the reading of proof" and the limitation statement, "This 'economy number' of the Quarterly was printed (sic) in 100 copies, from pie-eyed type" (the "sic" presumably refers to the mimeograph production of the booklet). Contents include a "Dead End Kids" take on the Three Bears, humorous poetry, jokes, and a crossword puzzle.
Scarce, with OCLC recording only the Huntington as holding a run containing this issue of the QUARTERLY and no institutions listing this issue separately.
