Moby Dick

Macmillan, New York, 1929

The Modern Readers' Series title page, inside its full decorative border, opposite the emblem panel from the same setting — harpoon and scales, crescent, castle, anchor, tree, armillary sphere. Introduced by Ralph Dow, who taught English at the high school in New Bedford, which is either a coincidence or the whole point.
