In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. First edition. Orig. cloth with illustrated endpapers. Top of spine bumped, very good in about very good dust jacket which is chipped at top and bottom of spine; about one half-inch is missing from the top, taking away the first letter of the author's name, and ab…out the same from the bottom. The chip at the top of the spine extends onto the upper left corner of the front panel and a bit also onto the extreme upper right corner of the back panel, not affecting anything of importance. The front flap, front endpaper, and first few pages show trace marks left by a paperclip. Otherwise the interior is clean and unmarked. Jacket has a drawing in colors on the front panel, and besides the illustrated endpapers there are six full-page black-and-white illustrations and numerous black-and-white vignettes throughout the text. Osceola Buddy is a mule whose conversations with other mules supply most of the book's dialogue. This book is interesting for its local color about agricultural life in southern Florida in the 1930s, including the farm labor done by African-American adults and children. There is a brief mention of Seminole Indians. Effie Power was an early supporter of Langston Hughes and provided the introduction to his 1932 poetry collection The Dream Keeper. at the time of writing this book she was living in Florida. Scarce in dust jacket.

In den WarenkorbSecond Printing (same year as the first). Octavo (21cm); black cloth, with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; illustrated endpapers; [12],13-309,[3]pp; illus. Inscribed by the author in year of publication the half-title page: "To Erskine and Sara / with never-ceasing affection / Sincerely & fraternally / Michael G…old." Further inscribed, by Wood: "From Erskine & Sara to their dear friend Max Rosenberg - echoing the above - The Cats / July 1930." A tight, clean copy in the original cloth binding; board corners lightly bumped and a few mild taps to board edges, the endpapers illustrated after woodcuts by Howard Simon. Solidly Very Good, lacking the scarce dustwrapper. A great association copy, inscribed by Gold to one of the leading leftist intellectuals and authors of his time. Wood (1852-1944) was a self-styled anarchist, aesthete, and painter. As an attorney in the 1920s he defended a number of prominent figures on the left, including the anarchist lecturer Emma Goldman, and contributed prolifically to the radical periodicals of the period. With his second wife Sara Bard Field, he was a long-time resident of Los Gatos, California, and was known for entertaining visitors at the estate "The Cats," mentioned in the present inscription. Interestingly, Wood did not have a reputation for sympathy with doctrinaire Marxist thought; it seems unlikely that Gold would have written Wood such an effusive inscription even a few years later, as during the Great Depression he would rise to become one of the leading apparatchiks in the CPUSA. Signed.
