1933 · Detroit, MI
by Labadie, Jo
Detroit, MI: [Jo Labadie], 1933. Two small leaves printed rectos only, 5x3.5 inches, one leaf a portrait of and a poem by the printer himself, the other leaf a mission statement and advert offering yet more poetry (which he modestly describes as "doggerel"). Very good condition. We know that the items in hand, the portrait/poem and the ad, relate to each other directly, as we have seen copies printed together on a single leaf. The portrait is a photographic image of Labadie gazing into a fireplace, this placed above a quatrain. (Inventory #: 259339)
