About This Item
Paris: The Obelisk Press [Maurice Girodias], 1950. Original light brown wrappers printed in white. Some shelfwear, else a Very Good copy. 16mo. 634pp. This edition of Sexus corresponds to no. A76d in the Shifreen/Jackson Henry Miller: A Bibliography of Primary Printed Sources (1993), where it is described as the 'Second edition/Paperback Issue/First Combined Edition/Second Obelisk Press Edition.' To clarify this, the first Obelisk Press edition was published in 1949 in two volumes in an edition of 3000 copies. This was reprinted in July 1950 in two one-volume issues, one on cloth and the other, the one offered here, in wrappers. From the library of Patrick J. Kearney, with his name label to the verso of the front cover.
