Sobre este artículo
Griswold & Mazzulla (self-published). Very Good+ in Good dust jacket. 1958. Hardcover. A probable first edition of Don and Jean Griswold's history of small mining camps in Colorado. These places were often designated as "cities" though many were little more than encampments. This work was published at the centennial of the first Colorado gold rush, known as the "Rush to the Rockies" in 1859. The text is accompanied by dozens of black & white photos and drawings and a color lithograph of Denver in 1859 from the collection of Fred M. Mazzulla and Jo Mazzulla. --- In patterned cream paper-covered boards backed in green cloth, with titling in gilt to spine. Volume wrapped in dust jacket which repeats the color image of Denver in 1859. --- A clean, tightly-bound, well-preserved copy lacking obvious damages. Jacket with a couple of tears to front panel, other small areas of chafing to extremities but overall intact and wrapped in removable archival mylar protector.; Octavo - 8 to 9 in. tall; xi, 307, (1) pages .
