[1931]. · New York
by Goldberg, Isaac
New York: Panurge Press, [1931].. Decorated cloth. Some tanning at edges and at gutters of endsheets, cloth a bit handsoiled, but a good copy, without dust jacket. First edition. One of 1500 numbered copies. In this copy, the limitation number has been overwritten with the inscription "Complimentary copy for Ben Abramson." A fitting association copy of a collection of short stories by the critic / biographer / musicologist / linguist, relegated to the dim realm of biblio-obscurity by reason of its having appeared under the imprint of a publisher more at home with softcore pseudo- porn and "anthropological" studies. It was not included in the list of his works in Kunitz & Haycraft. Abramson's catalogues and lists often included offerings of titles published by Panurge and Falstaff presses.
