Sobre este artículo
New York: Frederick A. Stokes, 1900. Hardcover. Very Good. First edition. Illustrated by Horace Taylor and George B. Luks. Octavo. 318pp. Red cloth stamped with black silhouette design and gilt lettering. Very faint splash mark on front board, very good or better. A collection of very short and apparently trifling fiction. A sandburr, according to the author in his introduction "...is a foolish , small vegetable, irritating and grievously useless." Inscribed by the Canadian author in pencil to the noted Canadian-American actress: "New York City March 28th 1900. To Mrs. Marie Dressler with best wishes. Alfred H. Lewis." Dressler has a long career in both theatre and film, culminating in her Academy Award for Best Actress in *Min and Bill* and late-in-life roll as the eponymous *Tugboat Annie.* Many of Lewis' stories were made into films, whether any of these were isn't immediately apparent. A pleasant association copy.
