Portrait frontispiece from early photograph. 8vo, cloth; slight abrasion at foot of spine; dust jacket. Charlottesville, Virginia: University of Virginia Press, 1951 E200/300 FIRST EDITION. ONE OF 1000 COPIES. In light of recent DNA research on the remains of Jefferson's slaves, this is all the more interesting and veracious. In Isaac's words: "Sally [Hemings] was very handsome: long straight hair down her back. She was about eleven years old when Mr. Jefferson took her to France to wait on Miss Polly." Not in Blockson Collection; Schomburg Collection, Sc B-Jefferson.
