The Antiquities of Yale

New Haven: Arthur Head, Publisher, 1932. Wraps. Very Good. Item #019668

One of 250 copies printed. Printed blue wraps. 4 ½ by 2 7/8 inches. 24 pp. Small woodcut illustrations throughout. A humorous survey of the various old buildings on, or once on, the Yale campus, offering sly, subtle criticism of Yale leaders and their collective wisdom. The author mentions Yale's "outward enthusiasm" for chapels early on, with that enthusiasm now apparently toward speakeasies and road houses around New Haven. VERY GOOD condition. Light fading and toning to the wrappers.

Price: $45.00
