Western author and an avid fisherman. Lengthy AQS from his best known work, Riders of the Purple Sage, on a 5 x 3 white page, reads, in part: “‘A pale star, peeping out of a sky that had begun to turn blue, marked the end of twilight. And all the purple shadows…changed till softly and mysteriously they embraced black night. Beautiful, wild, strange, silent Surprise Valley!’ From my favorite book, Zane Grey.” In fine condition, with usual punch holes to left edge, couple of areas of adhesive residue with a bit of paper loss to lower left corner, collector’s brief typed notations. R&R COA.
