19242604<p> Harper & Brothers New York and London 1924 Octavo bound in original slate gray cloth with gilt titles 294 pp. including index. Top edge stained yellow. Stated first edition in the <b>RARE ORIGINAL DUST WRAPPER.</b> Offsetting from old moisture damage evidenced by a white residue mark running the width of the rear cover approximately one inch from the top edge. The damage mirrors a stain on the wrapper's rear panel and spine. The stain while noticeable is less detracting than one might expect not affecting the spine of the book itself that is otherwise fine and bright. There is other minor soiling and wear to the dust wrapper but it is unfaded and complete lettered in navy blue against a pale turquoise ground. '"Price $4.00" is printed on the inner flap along with a list of Harper publications on psychology and psychoanalysis. The back flap and rear panel also serve as advertisements for current Harper publications. The front cover of the dust wrapper however is fully dedicated to the promotion of Houdini ".He dissects with an especially keen scalpel he does not wield it as one determined to destroy but rather a seeker after truth. Although he has the utmost respect for the honest belief of any person he is the relentless enemy of deliberate fraud and the account of his adventures in the investigation and detection of it forms a valuable chapter in the crusade for the truth." Thus the wrapper is indeed a marvelous historical document in its own right. Not just a mere ornamental cover for a book it stands as a publisher's clever harnessing of the public's endless fascination with the magician and man who was the Great Houdini.</p> Harper & Brothers hardcover books

1929List2808Sedalia Missouri 1929. 11 x 18 inches heavy cardstock. Manuscript note verso reads “Flor Alpino Vals / Vanderbeckâ€. Some staining and tears mainly marginal. Overall very good to excellent. An advertisement for a performance by the Original Eleven Clouds of Joy likely an iteration—of which there were many—of the popular Kansas City-based swing jazz band Clouds of Joy. The group was formed in 1921 by trumpeter Terrence Holder 1897–1983 and in 1929 was led by saxophonist Andy Kirk 1898–1992 and found success largely due to the arrangements and playing of Mary Lou Williams. They would tour the US through 1948 playing Kansas City-style jazz had the top song on the Billboard chart in 1938 and the first single to hit number one on Harlem Hit Parade in its inauguration in 1942 with the song “Take It and Git.†Contemporary newspaper accounts list the band as performing under the name “The Original Eleven Dark Clouds of Joy†during this period though the banner in the photograph here omits the word ‘dark.’ This poster represents an uncommon relic of the band’s early days touring regionally roughly a decade before they enjoyed national success. unknown

She was a true pioneer as a woman in a male-dominated field. She was in fact the first woman to lead an all-male orchestra which included some rising giants such as Ben Webster saxophone and Cozy Cole drums. Unable to make it far in the face of prejudice against Black and female performers she went on to a long an influential career in radio and as a dedicated advocate for Civil Rights.
