A very good, structurally sound copy. Gift inscription from U.S. Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter to his protege and prominent New Deal attorney, Francis M. Shea, on the front free endpaper. Housed in a custom green morocco clamshell box. $2,500. * First edition of Brandeis's landmark Progressive Era critique of "Our Financial Oligarchy," based on his series of articles published in Harper's Weekly from 1913 to 1914. This copy boasts an exceptional legal association, representing a rare, multi-generational lineage of American progressive jurisprudence. The inscription on the front free endpaper reads: "To Francis Shea / With the cordial regards / & good wishes of / Felix Frankfurter." Published just two years before Brandeis's historic appointment to the Supreme Court, "Other People's Money" serves as the definitive text of the Progressive Era's war on monopolies. It directly influenced Woodrow Wilson's "New Freedom" platform and laid the intellectual groundwork for the Federal Trade Commission and the Clayton Antitrust Act. Brandeis and Felix Frankfurter (1882-1965) shared one of the most famous mentorships in American legal history; when Brandeis ascended to the high court in 1916, Frankfurter effectively took over his role as the chief intellectual advisor to the progressive movement. Frankfurter subsequently used his post at Harvard Law School to funnel his brightest students, affectionately nicknamed his "Happy Hot Dogs," directly into FDR's New Deal administration to implement these very ideals. This copy was inscribed by Frankfurter to one of those prized students, Francis M. Shea (1905-1989; LL.B., 1928). By gifting this specific text to Shea, Frankfurter was quite literally passing down.
