Description:
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1921. Hardcover. 12mo. Black blind-ruled cloth with gilt spine lettering, dust jacket. viii, 122pp. Very good/very good. Jacket slightly age toned and lightly edgeworn, with chip at head of spine. A clean, tight, most handsome first edition of this political commentary by the Missouri-born journalist, writer, travel writer and novelist (1879-1929) -- in the almost always missing dust jacket! The book itself is rather uncommon, and a copy in the jacket more so.

Description:
New York: Horizon Press, 1959. Hardcover. Introduction by Harold Rosenberg. Folio. Black cloth with silver stamping, pictorial dust jacket. (Ca. 150pp). Numerous illustrations. Very good/good plus. Jacket edgeworn and a bit rubbed, with several archivally closed (on verso) edge tears and one wide chip running along the bottom edge of the front panel (triangular, 8½" wide X 1¼" at left side narrowing to ¼" at right side) -- fairly attractive overall despite obvious flaws. A tight, nice first edition of this scarce first photo collection by the reknowned New York and Chicago photographer (1903-91), who pioneered abstract expressionism in photography. Though not so noted, from the collection of noted Midwest photographer Archie Lieberman (1926-2008), author of "Farm Boy." A handsome copy of this desireable title.
