Each of the 400 attendees at the dinner were given a copy of this book specially published for this occasion. Signed by 7 attendees of the dinner on the verso of the frontispiece. While copies of this edition are scarce, this is in unusually fine condition. Bound in 1/4 white cloth over gray paper covered boards lettered in gilt, spine lettering and top edge gilt. Very nice.
