In den WarenkorbOriginal Wraps. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket, as Issued. First Edition. A first printing of the true first edition of Vol. I, No. 4 of this controversial pre-war journal, published as a paperback original in June 1926. Only 500 copies printed - with 450 going to subscribers (this copy unnumbered). Contributors include James Joy…ce (unauthorised); Carl Rakosi (Nov 6, 1903 - Jun 25, 2004) the last surviving member of the Objectivist poets, still publishing and performing poetry well into his 90s; Oscar Wilde / Convict C-33 (unauthorised); Frank Harris (14 Feb 1856 - 27 Aug 1931) an Irish-American editor, novelist, short story writer, journalist and publisher, friendly with many well-known figures of his day; Arthur Symons (28 Feb 1865 - 22 Jan 1945) a British poet, critic, translator and magazine editor; Pierre-Félix Louÿs 10 Dec 1870 - 4 Jun 1925) was a Belgian poet and writer, most renowned for lesbian and classical themes in some of his writings. He is known as a writer who sought to "express pagan sensuality with stylistic perfection". ***Very good in the original orange thin card covers, printed in black and red on the front cover and spine. Sewn binding. The covers have some marks, rubbing and creasing commensurate with age and handling over the last 100 years, but are actually remarkably clean. There is a scuff tear at the top of the front cover and some creasing to the bottom corner of the back cover, but the fragile spine covering is complete without damage. Some light rubbing to the edges, but no serious creases or tears. The spine has very light reading creases to the paper covering, but remains flat and square without any rolling (please see scans). Internally also very good with no previous ownership inscriptions or annotations. No significant creases or tears. The pages are clean, and the paper quality is very good - quite thick paper used which has not tanned over the years as some cheap paper does - remains white. ***IV prelims + 70 printed pages (p.397-566) + 2pp Index to Volume I at the back of the book. 217mm x 152mm. ***Contents: Life and Letters by S. R. (Samuel Roth ed.); Dramatis Personae by S. R. (Samuel Roth ed.); The First Stone by T. W. H. Crosland; New Preface to "The Life and Confessions of Oscar Wilde" by Frank Harris; The Unpublished Portion of "De Profundis" by Convict C 33 (Oscar Wilde); A Peep Into the Past by Max Beerbohm; Juvenilia by Samuel Roth; Scriptural Program by Carl Rakosi; The Last Day of Don Juan by Arthur Symons; Tandaradei by Whittaker Chambers; Rabalaisian Fauncies Daphne and Apollo by Waverly Lewis Root; Leda by Pierre Louys; A New Unnamed Work (Finnegan's Wake) by James Joyce; Mr. Roth is Entertained by S. R. (Samuel Roth); Writing Finis to Volume One of Two Worlds; Index to Volume One. ***'Samuel Roth (Samuel Roth (1893 - July 3, 1974) was an American publisher and writer. He was the plaintiff in the landmark 1957 case Roth v. United States, in which the United States Supreme Court redefined the constitutional test for determining which constitutes obscene material unprotected by the First Amendment. It became a template for the liberalizing First Amendment decisions in the 1960s. Roth spent nine years in jail on state and federal obscenity convictions, spending eight years in Lewisburg Federal Penitentiary.' (Wiki) ***A first printing of the true first edition of Vol. I, No. 4 of this controversial pre-war journal, published as a paperback original in June 1926. Only 500 copies printed so quite scarce. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

In den WarenkorbSoftcover. Zustand: Very Good. Vol. 1, No. 3. Slim octavo. 12pp. Stapled wrappers soiled and last few pages with a bit of light foxing, staples somewhat oxidized, sound and near very good. Prints poems by Charles Francis Phillips, Charles Wharton Stork, Laura Benet, William Laird, Lee Wilson Dodd, Robert Haven Schauffler ("The H…armonie of Heaven" - the poem advertised on the cover), John Hall Wheelock, Jessie B. Rittenhouse, Thomas Walsh, Amy Lowell, and Virginia Woodward Cloud. However, this little literary mag is most interesting for being the first publication of Samuel Roth, who would later move to the underground publication of curiosa and be the appellant in a 1957 Supreme Court case, Roth vs the United States, the decision of which "opened the way to Constitutional protection for expression previously censored for indecency, and became a template for the liberalizing First Amendment decisions of the 1960s" (Kislak Center). A respected poet in his time, the lower wrap advertises Roth's book *First Offering*. An interesting and uncommon piece of publishing and First Amendment history.
