Canada.- Sturges (Lee) Salmon Fishing on Cain River New Brunswick, one of 50 copies, [Chicago], privately printed, 1919
Est: £400 - £600
Canada.- Sturges (Lee) Salmon Fishing on Cain River New Brunswick, one of 50 copies, signed presentation inscription from author to front endpaper (?pencil), 6 etched plates after Sturges with captioned tissue guards, illustrations throughout, final leaf with pencil sketch, two ink ownership inscriptions to other endpapers, some light finger and similar soiling, ?original boards, corners rubbed, rebacked in morocco, housed within modern custom made morocco-backed drop-back box, [Wood BSS 122], 4to, [Chicago], privately printed, 1919. *** The tale of a 65 mile, week-long canoe trip down the Cains [River] in New Brunswick, fishing for salmon along the way, guided by the well-known Harry Allen (to whom the book is inscribed), who built the camps on the Miramichi, just below the mouth of the Cains and Black Brook. An original film of the trip is now viewable at the Americal Museum of Fly Flishing in Vermont. Scarce among fishing books, it holds a particular place within the history of American fine printing and graphic arts, with the etchings and illustrations after Sturges himself an artist, and the book itself designed and printed by Ralph Fletcher Seymour, a Chicago member of the 'Arts and Crafts' movement. Rare: while the limitation is 50 copies, it is known that likely far fewer exist, due to a fire at the author's house.
