About This Item
London : Modern Fiction, [ca.1945]. First edition. "Corner of Gamm-street, Bowery. Dusk. December day; snow atop distant skyscrapers; awful squelchy slush underfoot; overhead railway smashing flashes of electricity from ice-hard rails. Everything around furtive, glum, anti-law, on account of the cold douche of Prohibition". Crown 8vo (19cm). (128)pp. Original pictorial stapled wrappers - a design by H. W. Perl; wrappers a little worn, slightly creased and a little frayed; acid-free tape repair at head; text a little spotted, mainly to prelims and edges; a reasonable copy of a difficult title. Just a single copy (British Library) located in major libraries worldwide.
