Dutch Treat Club Year Book 1925.

Privately printed [by Rogers & Company], 1925. - Octavo, black paper covered boards backed with red cloth with a pictorial label on the front cover & a printed label on the spine. The boards are bumped & lightly rubbed with the top corner of the front board cracked & the front edge of the rear board unevenly cut. The spine is unevenly faded with the tail lightly chipped and the left side of the label is chipped. The book is slightly cocked. 93 pages plus colophon. Illustrations in black & white and color by Lauren Stout, W. J. Enright,W. Morgan, Rea Irvin and others. There are some small stains to pages 16 & 17, else the contents are very good. Number 789 of a limited edition of 800 numbered copies.The Dutch Treat Club, founded in 1905, was an association of individuals active in literature, art, music and the theatre. Originally membership was limited to men and the club's yearbooks included "naughty" stories about women and cartoons and drawings of naked or partially nude females. After a controversial 1991 vote to admit women as members, the yearbook somewhat cleaned up its act.The 1925 year book includes verse written in the person of Archy the dog by Don Marquis and "An Intercepted Letter to Los Angeles from Rupert Hughes". Among the illustrations is a depiction of nude ladies welcoming a nude gentleman to their luncheon table, referring to "a rumor that a feminine chapter of our Luncheon Lodge had been organized and was holding sessions at the Martinique on Wednesday noons."
