Stansbery, Lon R.. THE PASSING OF 3D RANCH (Signed). Privately Published, (Geo. W. Henry Printing Co), Tulsa, 1930.

Price: US$250.50 + shipping

Condition: Good

Description: Small 8vo cloth. 92pp. Illustrated with photos & one cartoon. Dated in 1937 & signed by Stansbery. Also the signature of Dal Walker, but it appears to be in Stansbery's hand. Likely a presentation. An account of ranching in the Tulsa area, especially the 3D ranch 35 miles NE of Tulsa, & W. E. Halsell's Mashed-O. Information on Texas cattleman, Shanghai Pierce, & some Oklahoma outlaws, the Daltons, Doolin, Jennings, Cook Gang, Cherokee Bill. "The writer came to Oklahoma in 1889 and also tells many humorous happenings in and around Tulsa during the early days." Desirable book & quite scarce in the 1st edition. Curiously, this title appears to have been published without a title page. The t-p in the reprint is only that of the reprint publisher, & other 1st editions I've looked at did not have a title page. This copy with the color of the cloth covers faded with exposure. Black printing of the titles & cover pictures (both front & back) are strong. Light wear otherwise. Good, tight copy. 6-guns 2125, Herd 2146. (ca 1930).
