Between the Covers

First edition. Stapled orange wrappers. Illustrated by cowboy artist Wallace Simpson and Oneida Indian artist Walker Boone. Very slightly rubbed, a fine copy. An attractively printed pamphlet, and Jim Thompson's first appearance in print, as Director of the project, prominently noted at the top of the title page. It is likely that Thompson provided the introductions to the various sections of the calendar, and possibly some of the thumbnail descriptions of the various activities in Oklahoma. A rare Thompson item, preceding both *Now and On Earth* and his first short story appearance.
