Description

Signed book: Tetecan: An Aztec Tragedy. First edition. San Francisco: Grabhorn Press/Bohemian Club, 1950. Hardcover, 6.75 x 9.25, 82 pages. Signed on the first three end papers in ink by various Bohemian Grove attendees—ranging from politicians to entertainers to artists—including Dwight D. Eisenhower, Herbert Hoover, Earl Warren, Lauritz Melchior, Dennis Day, George Murphy, Ferdinand Burgdorff, Norman Chandler, and others, with some adding inscriptions to actor Jean Hersholt; Hersholt's personal bookplate is affixed to the front pastedown. In fine condition, with sunning to the spine. Accompanied by three original glossy photographs of the Bohemian Grove stage, a program for the Bohemian Club's 1950 Midsummer Encampment, and a program for 1950 'Cremation of Care' ceremony. An interesting multi-signed book associated with the mysterious Bohemian Grove campground, which famously hosts a two-week encampment of the most powerful men in the world every summer—the subject of countless conspiracy theories.
