Sobre este item
Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill, 1928. 12mo (17.5cm). Flexible black cloth-covered boards, stamped in gilt; black and white pictorial endpapers; 345,[1]pp. Author's signature on inserted leaf at front. A sound copy with mild rubbing at spine ends, visible surface abrasions and spotting to covers; just VG.
Peterkin, a white woman, wrote several works about the African-American experience. This novel, set among the Gullah people of the South Carolina Low Country, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1929. Ethel Barrymore starred in a 1930 stage adaptation, in blackface. This "airplane edition," printed on thin India paper and bound in lightweight, flexible boards, was published less than 10 years after the first international commercial flights (in 1919, between the United States and Canada). [64131].
