Utrecht: De Gemeenschap, 1934. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. ND. [1934]. Scarce pioneering novel in the Dutch New Objectivity tradition, ostensibly an examination of Henry Ford's life and auto manufacturing methods. M Revis (pseudonym of Willem Visser) had already published 8,000,00 m3 Zand, a novelised history of a Dutch sand quarrying company. In very good order. Endpapers are heavily tanned, but text is clean and bright. Perhaps most notable is the binding design by A W Oosterbaan, with a red panel front an back, on cream cloth, and an automobile photo and title montage to the front. Red titling to spine. There is a little light wear to the panels, but in general this is a very good example. 12mo. 169pp
