Fang and Claw, 1935, Frank Buck, Hunting Stories

This 1935 first-year printing of Fang and Claw by Frank Buck, with Ferrin Fraser (Simon & Schuster, New York), is a recounting of Buck’s real-life exploits capturing wild animals throughout Southeast Asia.

Bound in tan cloth with an arresting green leaping-panther silhouette across the boards and spine design, this copy shows age toning and spotting appropriate to its era, with light edge wear and a faint stain at the lower front.

The interior opens with a previous owner’s signature dated 1935 and features clean pages with only mild age toning.
