Coconut Oil. June Triplett's Amazing Book Out of Darkest Africa! As told to Corey Ford. With 36 unbelievable illustrations.

Descripción

First edition. Cloth with dust wrapper. Very good copy in very good dust wrapper, which has a few closed tears but is overall complete, with only a trifle of paper loss at the bottom right tip of the front panel. Jacket is racist, with cartoon African natives forming the support staff of a White Woman Explorer. Once past that, the book is a sendup of the female explorer genre and is quite silly and funny, as one would expect from a member of the Algonquin Round Table. Photographic illustrations are very interesting, involving some legerdemain to place the characters in the midst of genuine backgrounds. Map endpapers of Harlem and the Bronx. Scarce in this condition, and from a scarce publisher as well. Many celebrities of the day appear in pastiche. N° de ref. del artículo 5338
