Description:
New York/London: Harper & Brothers. Near Fine. 1929. 5th printing. Hardcover. (no dust jacket, but encased and protected by a new, professionally-produced FACSIMILE jacket) [a very nice copy, the gilt spine lettering a bit rubbed but otherwise the book is unblemished, and has an attractive vintage bookseller's label (from The Satyr Book Shop, Hollywood) on the rear pastedown]. The second of three novels by this Jamaican-born author, a major figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Set along the Marseilles waterfont, its protagonist is a jazz musician, making his away among "the flotsam and jetsam of the human tide [which] sweep into Marseilles from every corner of the world." Please NOTE that this book comes with a new FACSIMILE dust jacket (see second scanned image), but this has not been factored into our pricing. .

Description:
New York and London: Harper & Brothers, 1929. Very good plus.. First printing of the second novel by one of the most prominent members of the Harlem Renaissance, adapted into the 1937 J. Elder Wills musical film BIG FELLA starring Paul Robeson and Elisabeth Welch. The story of an African American musician along the Marseille coastline, BANJO is "a sketch of the black personality by a black writer and it pans across a whole range of blackness: West Africans, West Indians, North Americans and the mulattos of the French West Indies" (Jacqueline Kaye, 165). According to Margaret Perry, McKay's "disillusionment with the Harlem Renaissance" (119) comes through in BANJO via the contrast between the two main characters, all itself against a backdrop of French colonialism. A bright copy. 7.5'' x 5''. Original cloth-backed patterned boards. Lacking original dust jacket. Red topstain. 326 pages. Binding with light wear to spine ends, gilt somewhat effaced. Front hinge carefully repaired, with a couple tiny…
