This suite of 24 portraits represents all of the authors featured in the book who were alive and whose autographs the publisher was able to obtain. Though there is no limitation statement, the suite of signed portraits was necessarily produced in small numbers, and is rare in commerce as a complete set. The full list of signed portraits is as follows: John Erskine -- Sinclair Lewis --Edna St. Vincent Millay -- Royal Cortissoz -- Ida M. Tarbell -- James Truslow Adams -- Fannie Hurst -- Walter de la Mare -- Dorothy Thompson -- H.M. Tomlinson -- G.B. Stern -- Rupert Hughes -- James Shotwell -- Edna Ferber -- Lion Feuchtwanger -- Walter Lippmann -- Lowell Thomas -- Joseph Auslander -- Irving Bacheller -- Alfred Noyes -- Pertinax -- William Brown Meloney -- Alexander Woollcott -- Sir Philip Gibbs.
