A significant book featuring the illustrations of the famed artist and lithographer Grant Wood, who has inscribed the book on the half-title to an individual in very neat script which does not exactly match online signatures found. However, all online examples located seem to be illustrate his signature at the base of lithographs, which would be completed in a different setting than signing and inscribing a single volume or a group of volumes. There are distinct similarities, but also differences. No reason to doubt this signature, but cannot guarantee it. A very nice copy of this title notwithstanding this question!
