Sierra Club Bulletin - June, 1934. 9 Ansel Adams photographs; John Muir & Ralph Waldo Emerson in Yosemite; Mount Humphreys; The Devil's Crags; North Palisade; Three Teeth of Sawtooth Ridge Details

Near Fine (very), as noted; see scans and description. San Francisco: Sierra Club, 1934. First Edition. June, 1934 [Vol XIX, No. 3] issue, with 9 Ansel Adams photographs, among many other beautfiul glossy shots by others. Original printed wrappers, 9 1/2" x 6 1/4". The gray cover variant (some were buff). Near Fine - extremely so - with no salient flaws; spine somewhat sunned, and that's about it. By this time, there was no longer any crinkle to exposed edges caused by the previous circuit-binding (yapp binding) practice of the Sierra Club, but you will note a small degree of uneveness to the top and bottom cover cutting. See scans. Very high grade example. Bright, tight, and of course sturdy. 110 numbered pp.+24 glossy photographic plates, 9 of those by Ansel Adams, others by Marjory Bridge, Herbert P. Rankin, Lewis F. Clark, Richard M. Leonard, Ansel F. Hall; Nathan C. Clark, Charles S. Webber, and the National Park Service. Illustrations by Leland Curtis. See scan of contents page for some of the SC luminaries who contributed articles, but those articles include: John Muir & Ralph Waldo Emerson in Yosemite; Mount Humphreys; The Devil's Crags; North Palisade; Three Teeth of Sawtooth Ridge; First Ascent of Higher Cathedral Spire; Ascent of West Temple; Southern Cailfornia Ski Trips; Early Ascents of Mount Shasta; Thomas Moran Appreciation; and the Values from Local Rock-Climbing. As always, a variety of regular and special club departments as well. Please review all scans. Scarce in any condition.
