The 2nd edition of Giacomo Patri’s wordless novel, White Collar, unlike the 1st edition, was not numbered. Also, not all copies were signed.
- Title: White Collar
- [San Francisco, California] Self published by Patri.
- some copies were signed by Giacomo Patri on leaf following title leaf (but not numbered, unlike the 1st Edition). NOTE: some copies exist without a signature – see below.
- [123] leaves of plates: chiefly illustrations
- 10 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches (about the same size as the 1st edition)
- with internal metal binding (double wires bound with wrappers of a black thin card embossed with a leather texture. NOTE: this is not a “spiral” binding – see images. See Also binding discussion at http://wordlessnovels.com/white-collar-bindings/
- Unpaginated
- printed recto
- Leaves are a fine tissue
- story images printed in black ink with a brownish tinge
- interior/dream images are printed in orange. SPECULATION: Patri’s 1939 edition used a grey ink and perhaps this didn’t distinguish the story images from inner sequence images adequately so, in 1940, Patri followed Lynd Ward’s lead where Ward used orange in his 1932 wordless novel, Wild Pilgrimage.
