Five-line ink inscription on title page - "Especially for Jim - | With Love + Best Wishes - | Big Mama, | Ethel Wright Mohamed | Dec, 31. 1990" with inscribee Jim being grandson James G. Fulcher, Jr. as the book was indirectly acquired from his Belzoni, Mississippi estate. Still a very good copy. Occasional b/w vignette illustrations by Ethel Wright Mohamed mostly at page corners along with ten full page color illustrations of Mohamed folk art embroideries on unpaged leaves with images reproduced on rectos and captions on versos in which the artist explains the image's context with a background anecdote or two.
