Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 8vo, black cloth with silver lettering on spine, Introduction on "The Brothers Goncourt" by George J. Becker, with a historical Introduction entitled "The Terrible Year" by Paul H. Beik, illustrated with foldout "Map of Paris" as frontispiece & 6 full-…page contemporary B&W cartoons, archival mylar-protected pictorial dust jacket (unclipped) depicting a cannon on wheels against a red background, lengthy excerpts from the Goncourt Journals, chronology, biographical notes, 334 pages. After the defeat of Emperor Napoleon III in September 1870, the French Second Empire collapsed. Thereafter, the French Third Republic went to war with Prussia, which laid siege to Paris for four months. Within Paris during the siege, the Commune or Federe, which was a radical socialist and revolutionary government, attempted to rule Paris from 28 March to 28 May 1871. In response, the regular French Army suppressed the Commune during "La semaine sanglante" ("The Bloody Week") beginning on 21 May 1871. The action by the Regulars led to a massacre. On paper, more than 100,000 Communards were killed, though many historians believe it was more like 25,000-35,000 killed, while roughly 750 government regulars died. Nearly 40,000 were arrested and over 7,000 deported. A useful edition on this bloody event in late 19th century French history. Tight copy with clean, unfoxed pages and illustrations. Some chipping to edges of the dust jacket (unclipped). Caricatures (illustrator).

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. New York: The Masses Publishing Company, 1915. The June, 1915 issue (Volume VI, Number 9, whole number 49). Large Folio, illustrated stapled wraps, 27 pp. Very Good by any periodical standard; as the very inexpensively-produced budget-of-the-heart icon The Masses was, this example i…s certainly better than very good, by its own standard. Light crease the vertical length of cover; small nicks at front cover perimeter; larger chip at rear cover, lower left; modest toning to the remarkably healthy contents. See scans. Certainly one of the most seminal socio-political American publications of the last 200 years, The Masses was a collection of ideological art, opinion and reporting - usually contributed with little or no compensation - which strongly represented socialist / marxist values, but in a larger sense was representative of labor, women's rights, and radical left issues in general as those were at that time. Famous names of the era often contributed work, but the names of the regulars are themselves all now in history books. The now-timeless publication was shut down by the U.S. Government in 1918 on the basis of postal regulations, after two intense and ideologically-charged trials. Eastman and his sister, Crystal, then started The Liberator to carry on; after The Liberator closed its doors in 1926, The New Masses, under the primary leadership of Mike Gold, carried the radical flag. The Masses, as the first, is also the rarest. Text contributors to this issue of June, 1915 included Eastman, Carl Sandburg, Howard Brubaker, Harris Merton Lyon, Louis Untermeyer, Edmond McKenna, Elsie Clews Parsons, Frank Tanenbaum, Robert Carlton Brown, W.J. Robinson, Charles Grey, and Florence Kiper Frank. Art was contributed by Frank Walts, John Sloan, Art Young, Glenn O. Coleman, Stuart Davis, Cornelia Barns, Randall Davey, George Bellows, Maurice Becker, A. Londoner, Elias Goldberg, and Eugene Higgins, with Walts executing the front cover, and Davis the rear cover. Check out all of those names. An extraordinarily rare piece of American publishing and political history. l-lng2. Frank Walts, John Sloan, Art Young, Glenn O. Coleman, Stuart Davis, Cornelia Barns, Randall Davey, George Bellows, Maurice Becker, A. Londoner, Elias Goldberg, Eugene Higgins (illustrator).
