Chicago: McClurg, 1925. 8vo, original blue cloth (spine with a hint of fading, front inner hinge a bit tender); color pictorial dust jacket reproducing a painting by J. Allen St. John on front (some skillful restoration, two letters on spine supplied in facsimile). FIRST EDITION. Inserted frontispiece with illustration by St. John. Heins EL-1: "The romance of a stone age cave man and a modern girl, brought together by weird twists in time."
