Description:
Chicago: Richard Henry Little, 1935. First edition. Paperback. Very Good. 17 issues, with duplicates and additional volumes, of bespectacled Chicago Daily New columnist Richard Henry Little's humorous annual from his "Line o' Type or Two" column, 1923-1935. First edition. Most issues paperback, in colorful pictorial wraps by various artists- including one by Boris Artzybasheff, three hardcover issues which appear specially bound- two in cloth, one in half leather and patterned boards, each measures 4 by 9 in. Very good. Edge wear, soil to wraps. Lot uniformly complete, clean, and unmarked. Although these yearly volumes officially started in 1924 there is an undated one we believe is from 1923. Group from the estate of Agnes Szymanski, a Chicago native who died in 2003 at 91 and may have worked at the paper as a first job. 17vol. Digital images available upon request.
