Zustand: Very good plus. First printing. First edition of this early, important, and extensive dictionary of gay slang. While 1964's LAVENDER LEXICON and the following year's THE GUILD DICTIONARY OF HOMOSEXUAL TERMS both precede Rodger's influential THE QUEENS' VERNACULAR, they were little more than short pamphlets. As Rodgers himself outlines in his introduction: "Previously gay slang has been explored only in slight, dated glossaries or in booklets, not much more than glossaries themselves." Rodger's guide, however, is both properly scholarly and firmly grounded in lexicographic practice - with pronunciation guides, usage examples, and more 12,000 terms and definitions. QUEENS' VERNACULAR not only remains an important resource, but one of the most extensive as well: "the magnificent, still unsurpassed Mother of all gay glossaries [that made] all previous attempts to document gay slang look like shopping lists scribbled on the back of a paper bag" (Kulick 251). 8'' x 4.5''. Original printed lavender wrappers. $3.50 cover price. 272 pages. Faint creasing here and there. Touches of shelfwear, rubbing. Else remarkably bright and clean.…

Original wraps. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. A clean, well-preserved example of this very uncommon early issue, issue #5, with 2 rows of Jim Morrison photos (taken by Baron Wolman) serving as bookends on the front cover. Evenly folded for shipping purposes but, happily, no shipping label. A bright, crisp copy, legitimately approaching Near Fine. The front cover boasts articles titled: "Pigpen to Meet Pope?", "Beatles Zap USA Ltd", "Monterey Film Bummer" and "Doors Up for Movie". (The first 10 issues of Rolling Stone, all published within the first half-year of the magazine's November 9th, 1967 debut, are notoriously scarce, especially in such sharp condition).…

First Edition. Oblong quarto, original photographic stiff paper wrappers. Inscribed by Bill Owens on the front free endpaper, "For Dave Bill Owens Can you avoid Suburbia." In very goodÂcondition. Laid in is the photographer's business card. âSuburbia is too sympathetic and too conflicted to be simply another ironic deadpan document⦠This delicate balance of outsider and insider perspectives turns the resulting book into a critical self-portraitâ"one thatâs almost painfully observant but withholds judgmentâ (Roth, 224). Roth 101; Parr & Badger II, 24, Open Book, 296.…
