A humorous take on those who collect and antique. The names of the compilers are pseudonyms for Booth Tarkington, Kenneth L. Roberts, and Hugh MacNair Kahler, respectively. Detailed list of correspondence and signatures/illustrations: - Grace Coolidge Correspondence: When this book was published in 1923, Roberts, author of Rabble in Arms, was working on an informal biography of recently elected Calvin Coolidge, which published the next year. This biography created a connection between Roberts and the First Family, evidenced from the letter pasted, envelope and all, at the endsheet from First Lady Grace Coolidge. She had received a copy of the Whatnot from Roberts and loved the rear ads, calling the three authors "Snoodle-hams" who clearly had fun writing the book. - Inscription: Roberts manuscript inscription to his wife on the front free endsheet, thanking her for her "equanimity and amiability before the wild and persistent collecting of Milton Kilgallen," his pseudonym for this volume. - Typed letter Signedlaid in: Written from the desk of Hugh MacNair Kahler, fiction editor for the Ladies Home Journal,dated a year before the publication. He gives his love to Anna and condolences on Kenneth's current illness with a "Sorry you suffer." - Hand-drawings and descriptions: Kahler also seems responsible (as he signs one) for the hand drawings at the half title and recto of the frontis. He has drawn a "rare" lamp and a burnt match holder tinted in "bile-green sateen" on the half title and (racist?) caricatures of the three authors on the next page. - Manuscript page: Booth Tarkington, novelist known for Penrod, was also known for his satirical writing which poked the American class system, in particular those who were a part of the nouveau riche bent on upward social mobility. While there is no name on it, it is likely the loose manuscript page from "Seawood / Kennebunkport, Maine" was written by him to Roberts about the photos in the book. Overall, a robust collection of things from Snoodle-hams bent on making fun of those stuck in the past.
