Sobre este item
Chicago: P. F. Volland Company, ( 1919). Fifth Edition. Hardcover. Good +/good. 10 sketches by Frank King, the cartoonist. Octavo, 127pp., blue clothbacked boards, partially unopened; the printed dj has narrow flaps; chipped at tips of spine. Very Rare in its dust jacket - which identifies itself as the "Sixth Printing".
Quite humorous. In addition to a parody of Poe's "The Raven" (i.e. A Chicago Night's Entertainment), there's a remarkable shape poem in "When Wifie Drives," an ode to Spanish Influenza, and ends with several on Christmas topics. The full-page illustrations are notable but quite different from Frank King's later work in the classic Chicago Tribune cartoon, "Gasoline Alley".

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
