About This Item
Detroit: Labadie Shop, 1912. Single issue original, unbound condition. 12mo (18cm); 4pp (bifolium). On newsprint. Mildly tanned (but not fragile); light soil; horizontal fold, with a few tiny chips to margins; Very Good. Third issue (of four) of this extremely ephemeral, privately-circulated "newspaper," produced by a 13-year-old Laurance Labadie on the premises of his father's (Jo Labadie) anarchist print shop in Detroit.
Labadie (1898-1975) would go on to become an influential, if somewhat eccentric, anarchist philosopher, closely affiliated with Ralph Borsodi's utopian School of Living movement. Labadie's father was Joseph ("Jo") Labadie (1850-1933), a leading apostle of anarchism in the Progressive era and prolific collector, printer and publisher of anarchist tracts. The famed Labadie Collection of radical literature at the University of MIchigan is named for him. Of the current publication, OCLC notes only two physical locations (University of MIchigan and the State Library of Michigan); not noted in commerce and never previously encountered by us. According to UM cataloguing data, publication ceased after the fourth issue.
