Description

A blue-green hardcover copy of "Yolanda" by Charles Major. The book's title and the author's name appear in bold navy blue type at the top and bottom center, respectively. Beneath the two types is a stamped illustration of two emblems / crests, with a decorative illustration evocative of an iron gate set between them in brown. The two crests are outlined in navy blue and predominantly filled with brown. On the left, an open flower is outlined and partially filled with navy blue. Negative space reveals the blue-green hardcover. On the right, the flower is closed. This photoplay edition, the Marion Davies Edition, includes photographs of American actress Marion Davies as she appeared in the novel's 1924 film adaptation.
