first edition
1955 · New York
by DECARAVA, Roy and Langston Hughes
New York: Simon & Schuster, 1955. First edition. Softcover. The simultaneous paperback issue. A classic collaboration with text by Langston Hughes and black and white images by Roy DeCarava. A very good copy in photo illustrated wrappers with light soiling and minor wear. Internally a clean copy of this increasingly uncommon book that was printed much better than subsequent editions. (Parr & Badger v1, 242; Roth 138-139).
