8o (240 x 158 mm). Two color illusrtations, folding map. Printed pictorial wrappers, original tie; red quarter morocco slipcase. Provenance: Don Frazier (his library sold to:) John Moores (his sale Lang's, 2 November 2007, lot 386).

EXCEEDINGLY RARE: the only copy located. The author is unstated, but is presumed to be Paul Brown. "There is much confusion about this Grasslands material because so little of it exists. The 1930 pamphlet described above [the present copy] is clearly marked Derrydale Press [on verso of final leaf] and was clearly a prospectus distributed in the steeplechasing community some many months prior to the December 6, 1930, day of the race. The copy of this prospectus in my collection is the only copy I know to exist, although there's a possibility of another" (Frazier G-11-a). THE ONLY COPY RECORDED IN AMERICAN BOOK PRICES CURRENT.
