193818323New York: Hillman-Curl Inc. Very Good in Poor dj. 1938. 1st U.S. edition. Hardcover. book itself is solid and internally clean some soiling and light shelfwear to top and bottom edges; the jacket however has had about as many bad things done to it as you can imagine: it's been laminated which has resulted in considerable yellowing/discoloration trimmed a bit along the top and bottom edges and the flaps are glued to the pastedowns; some of the laminate has also been peeled away which doesn't help matters much. A novelization essentially of Brecht and Kurt Weill's "The Threepenny Opera." Jacket-blurbed as "an unashamed and outrageous epic of roguery triumphant -- a rollicking full-blooded story whole-hearted in its descriptions of rascality and corruption" this translation was first published in England in 1937 by Robert Hale. A not-especially-pretty example of a fairly scarce book. . Hillman-Curl, Inc. hardcover books
