- Local Notes:
- Culture Class Collection copy has 2 dust-jackets. The Secker dust-jacket is placed over the dust jacket of Thomas Seltzer. The Seltzer dust-jacket is of special interest because it was designed by Dorothy Brett. It is of white paper printed in blue and black; the front cover reproduces Brett's drawing of the figures of a kangaroo and a man.--Cf. Roberts.
