THE GIPSY ROAD
first edition
1919 · Sydney
by Cassidy, R. J.
Sydney: The Judd Publishing Co., 1919. Octavo, pp. [1-6] 7-96, illustrated title page (or the front panel of a dust jacket) tipped in as a frontispiece, original brown cloth, front panel stamped in black. First edition. A jumble of poems and very short stories, crude class-warfare moralizing from a puritanical radical point of view. Several of the fifty-four items have elements of fantasy, tending to the allegorical or wistful. Miller and Macartney (1956), p. 103. A very good copy with some spotting to the cloth. The pictorial front cover of the paperbound issue is tipped in, serving as a sort of frontispiece. Scarce. (#119493) (Inventory #: 119493)
