Harry Craddock: 'The Savoy Cocktail Book', London, Constable & Company, 1930, 1st edition, signed and inscribed "Here's How! Harry Craddock", verso dedication page, this book formerly being the copy of Collis-Phillips Halpin, a contemporary and personal friend of Harry Craddock's, who worked as a cocktail bartender and dancer in London, including the Regency Club in Piccadilly Circus, with his contemporary pencil ownership signatures to verso and recto of FFEP, and his signature in shortened form "Phil" in pencil at head of dedication page. Later inscribed presentation by Collis-Phillips Halpin to the present owner on half title dated 1977 in blue ballpoint, and with his manuscript on page 284 giving the method of serving champagne and port, and beneath stated "My original cocktail "Emerald Isle" was afterwards bottled and sold as Green Goddess. Needless to say I was not given a prize, neither was my cocktail put on exhibition! Collis-Phillips Halpin".

Together with Harry Craddock's sword stick (a/f), the poor condition attributed by Collis-Phillips Halpin owing to its use one evening by Harry Craddock to eject a gentleman who had become inebriated and abusive to other customers and who refused to leave a party of ladies alone, Harry reputedly hitting the man so hard across the shoulder that the blow broke the end of the stick completely. To those who saw the incident Harry Craddock apologised on behalf of the client and himself, and the American cocktail Bar erupted in cheers from the men and dainty clapping from the women. A unique association copy of an iconic work from the flamboyant Art Deco period heyday of London's Hotel and Cocktail Bar scene.
