In 2007 I published this softcover facsimile edition of the original hardbound notebook with original poems and watercolors by Ed Burroughs and dedicated to his wife Florence.

All scans of the original notebook that are used in this facsimile edition were made by James A. Alexander of Tucson, Arizona.  Although he was also credited for color enhancement, as it turned out, no computer color enhancement was done and the facsimile pages appear with true color that exactly matches the original notebook.

The original notebook paper exhibited some age darkening as well as waviness caused by having been kept in an outdoor storage locker during the WWII years. The computer scans show these imperfections exactly as they appeared in the original notebook as of 2007.

Front and back cover design, added interior photographs, and front matter layout by Frank Puncer of Nejeunee Press, Tucson, AZ.

Special thanks to Bill Hillman for encouraging and producing this on-line reprint of the 2007 booklet.

The book was at the time the property of Lee Chase. 
The copyright inside mistakenly said Lee Chase 
but should have read Copyright 2007 by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.
