Heading: (Livestock)
Author: Dean, Frank C and Wilson S. Bayly
Title: Northern California and Southern Oregon Stock Directory
Place Published: Alturas, CA
Publisher:Frank C. Dean and Wilson S. Bayly
Date Published: 1888
Description:

372 pp. (16mo) full leather, expertly rebacked with original backstrip laid down with stamped design of a butterfly on front cover; original endpapers; ad on front edges; housed in modern cloth slipcase with gilt leather label. First Edition.

The first brand book printed in California and first printed volume of brands for the region. A full visual index for 678 brands is at back along with many advertisements from a variety of northern California and southern Oregon businesses including hardware stores, newspapers, hotels, saddle and tack makers etc. This project must have taken Dean and Bayly an extensive amount of time to compile due to the extremely remote country covered by this brand book. In their forward they note, "We hope all will consider the difficulties to be overcome in compiling a work of this kind for the first time, and make due allowance for any deficiencies." Two pages have pencil drawings of livestock. 18 leaves of advertisements plus advertisements to original front and rear pastedowns.

Condition

Covers stained, worn at corners; several leaves show paper restoration and a few have paper loss at corners not affecting text; light foxing.
