Signed by the author on a tipped in sheet at the front paste-down: "To Miss Lilly Carlman, with many kind regards, from John Patterson. Chicago, 4th Dec. 1924." The sheet was signed during Patterson's visit to Chicago during the installation of the famed Tsavo lion exhibit at the Field Museum of Natural History. Infamously the man-eating lions were serving as Patterson's rugs when the Field Museum offered to purchase them. VERY GOOD.
