Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 8vo softcover illustrated paperback. Small chip to base of spine and left bottom corner of cover. Colors quite good but a little water stain to side edges of cover. Back inner ad page also has watermark on top. 110 pages with lots of racist humour on all races. Paper fragile but all complete. These cost 10 cents new. Very rare. Probably 1905 no date.

First edition. 8vo. 110, (2, ad leaf) pp. Profusely illustrated, nearly every page, with many stereotypical drawings of African-Americans, "a joyous jumble of jokes," verse, skits, anecdotes, dialect tales, etc. Uncle Nic is described on the title page as the author of "Camp Stories" and "Coonahtown Comedy," but we have been unable to locate either as a separate publication. OCLC locates one copy (San Francisco Public). Poor quality paper browned; still a good solid copy of a scarce book of humor. Original color illustrated wrappers (rubbed, some light wear at the extremities). (#6111).
