Hardcover. First edition. Quarto. (xxiv) 200pp. Light brown buckram boards with gilt lettering on the front cover and spine. Decorative floral endpapers. Illustrated title page and contributors list at the front. This publication is an anthology of work from Yiddish poets in the Midwest and Western United States from 1932-1933,…beautifully illustrated, most notably by Todros Geller. The collection was also published to honor the memory of the recently deceased Yiddish poet Moyshe-Leyb Halpern (1886-1932), with the initial section of poetry dedicated to him. The work is illustrated throughout in b/w, most notably with 7 full-page expressionist woodcut engravings by acclaimed artists Todros Geller (1889-1949) and Mitchell Siporin (19101976). Siporin created the evocative title page with woodblock printing in black and red as well as two others. Geller contibutes the table of contents with avant-garde typography as well as 3 other large images, plus an additional smaller woodcut. Geller's contibutions include poletarian and Jewish themes. Poets who contributed to this collection are Moyshe Bogdanski (1889-1938), Shloyme Belski (1890-1972), Ben-Sholem (Shimen Shneyder, b.1890, also ed.), Pinhes Berman (1892-1974), Yankev Brodski (1892-1980), H.
