Copyright 1938 under the copyright date in 1ED as I take to mean First Edition. The book has an inscription included in the photographs. For a book 86 years old all pages intack and binding is tight. This would be a wonderful gift for the western lover in your life or to add to an existing library. You can check the outrageous priced they are selling this for. Will be packed in a box. Reason for selling I am downsizing.
