Librería: Edinburgh Books, Edinburgh, Reino Unido
Libro Original o primera edición
Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. 1956. First edition. 88pp., 8 New Orleans jazz photographs by Ralston Crawford, 2 pieces of loosely inserted associated material plus a 'Cimax' addressed envelope, and advertisements and information about 'Climax' on the endpapers. We believe that 'Climax' was a short-lived magazine that was published in 1955-56. In New Orleans, Lawrence Lipton had singled out Robert Cass for starting the magazine, Climax, A creative review in the jazz spirit in 1955. At the same time, Cass opened a club and art gallery called the Climax Jazz, Art & Pleasure Society of Lower Bourbon Street. Cass?s journal and club served as a magnet for bohemian and Beatnik activity in New Orleans. It includes related articles, book reviews, comments, creative writing, and poetry from various contributors. The book is bound in the original illustrated card covers, and is in very good condition with some expected shelf wear on the covers and a little rubbing down the spine edges. The contents are tight and clean with no inscription. One of the inserts is slightly larger than the book and has creasing and chipping along the top and bottom edge.
