First Edition. Octavo (20.5cm); maroon cloth, with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; photographic frontispiece,891,[5]pp; illus. Spine ends nudged, light wear to corners and lower board edges, internally clean and tight; a Very Good copy.With printed bookplate of Ruth Jarvis Hall to front pastedown. Important early anthology of radical prose, poetry, and art, chosen "from five thousand years of writings on the working man." Includes sources as diverse as Arturo Giovannitti and Eugene Debs to Habakkuk and Martin Luther. Sinclair's intention with this work was to create a "Socialist Bible" to be mass-produced and present in every American household, and Winston's initial edition even included a "Bible Issue" in black, limp pebble-grained morocco. In his introduction, Jack London indeed refers to this as "a humanist holy book;" but as of this writing (2025), Sinclair's effort does not appear to have supplanted the Christian Bible - despite years of looking, we have yet to encounter a copy of The Cry for Justice in a hotel dresser drawer. There was also a Sinclair issue of this title, ca. 1921; this trade edition from the Philadelphia publisher John C. Winston is by far the scarcer. AHOUSE A22a; BAL 11961.…

Two octavo volumes (18.75cm); maroon cloth, with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; [ii],99,[11]pp. The first copy is inscribed by Eugene Debs to American film actress, screenwriter, and editor Helen Louise Gardner on the front endpaper: "To Helen L. Gardner / With love and greetings, and with deep appreciation for her beautiful character, her lofty spirit, her rare vision, courage, understanding, and her high ideals and noble aspirations - Eugene V. Debs / Terre Haute, Indiana / December, 1924." Gentle sunning to spine, oxidation to gilt, with moderate, scattered soil to covers, light wear to extremities, and heavier wear with resulting board exposure to upper right corner of front cover; mild offset to endpapers from binders glue; Good. Housed in a clamshell case. The second copy is inscribed to Gardner by Ruth Le Prade, opposite the title page: "To Helen Gardner - with cordial greetings / Ruth Le Prade." Spine-sunned, cloth edge-worn and lightly soiled, with oxidation to gilt, a few small stains to front cover, some erosion to cloth toward lower spine, and mild offset to endpapers from binders glue; Good. Poems honoring socialist leader Eugene Debs by a variety of radical 20th century poets including Witter Bynner, Max Eastman, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Carl Sandburg, Siegfried Sassoon, Horace Traubel, and Israel Zangwill, many others. Sinclair contributed the foreword, along with letters from H.G. Wells and George Bernard Shaw (who states: "Clearly the White House is the only safe place for an honest man like Debs"). An interesting pair of copies inscribed to Gardner (1884-1968), acclaimed stage actress and the first actress to form her own production company. Moved by his circumstances and deeply influenced by his speeches, she visited him in prison in 1920, bringing him an autographed photo and beginning a correspondence that would last through the mid-1920's. In a December 21, 1920 letter, she writes: "Let me tell you that I was surprised to find my emotional self somewhat unaffected while I listened to you talk. I know the reason now. It is the same with you as it was with Epictetus, prison walls cannot confine the spirit -- the mind is ever free. So, in a way, I did not feel your plight as keenly as I would that of another who had little vision, little intelligence, little understanding about his body being so small a part of the real him that his confinement was of the physical order only." While the "special edition" of 500, with signed bookplate by Debs, appears with some frequency, inscribed copies of Debs and the Poets are genuinely uncommon. Signed. …
