The First UK printing published by George Allen & Unwin Ltd., London in 1934. The BOOK is in near Fine condition with light pushing to the spine ends. The publisher's scarcer pale yellow cloth with red lettering. A neat small South African bookseller stamp to the lower front end-paper. A bright copy with the WRAPPER which is in Very Good++ condition. Some mild losses with a little impingement onto the title lettering at the upper spine. Some very light tape remnants to the wrapper flaps from having been affixed to the pastedowns. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. Hughes' first short story collection is considered one of the finest works of the 'Harlem Renaissance'. (James Mercer) Langston Hughes was an American poet, social activist, novelist, playwright, and columnist from Joplin, Missouri. An early innovator of jazz poetry, Hughes is best known as a leader of the 'Harlem Renaissance'. Exceptionally scarce in the UK edition more-so with the wrapper. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.
