Chiefly blank pages, except for printed pages 22-23 and 64-65; With notes: "Projected Arents Tobacco Catalogue. Not printed by Updike" and "Updike (other dummy shows binding cloth turned inside out & colored end-papers)." This appears to be a dummy for the work eventually published for the New York Public Library as Tobacco, its history illustrated by the books, manuscripts and engravings in the library of George Arents, Jr.
Sample volume chiefly of blank machine-made paper with page of text describing "Dumbarton Oaks Papers Number 1 by Hayford Peirce and Royall Tyler" and opposing page with image of silk woven design. Volume has green buckram back and tan linen sides. Typescript label on inside back cover identifies price and style.
