Description:
Chicago: Reilly & Lee Co, 1952. First Trade Edition. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Very Good/Very Good+. Small 8vo. Pp. 40. Frontis. author portrait. Black cloth, titles printed in yellow on the cover: binding starting between last two signatures. In the three-color illustrated dust jacket with price $1.25 intact on the front flap: edges a tad rubbed, small, shallow chip on rear panel. A bright, presentable copy. First trade edition of a tract initially published privately, with only 21 pages, in 1951, New York. An attack on non-realistic modern art by the free-spending heir to the A&P supermarket fortune and art collector, his first venture into criticism. Tom Wolfe wrote that Hartford had "the most flagrantly unfashionable taste anybody in New York has ever heard of." Uncommon in the dust jacket, which is preserved here in a clear, removable archival sleeve. .
