Contact seller5-star sellerEarly printing (no edition/printing statement provided per Bobbs-Merrill's erratic contemporary practice). 276 pages. Hardcover: H 20.75cm x L 13.75cm. Lacks dust jacket. Brown cloth; obtrusive surface abrasion to spine cloth with underlying backstrip visible at several points; spine's lettering perished; mild mottling to boards…; front board's lettering heavily flaked away resulting in most being difficult to discern. Toning and staining to edges; toning to endpapers; some toning and foxing spots to interior pages. Front free endpaper has past bookseller's pencil notes as well as an ink signature "Luther Spencer, Jr." which seems likely to be novelist Elizabeth Spencer's elder brother James Luther Spencer, Jr. as the book was acquired from a Greenwood, Mississippi estate from a family with roots in Leflore County and Carroll County, Mississippi. Binding is firm. Only a fair copy for the book's exterior cosmetics. Although ghost written by newspaper columnist Charles Leroy Edson, THE IRON PUDDLER is the autobiography of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Republican Party politician James John Davis, aka "Iron Puddler" or "Puddler Jim," who served as the second U.S. Secretary of Labor from March 1921 to November 1930. Published in 1922, the book covers his immigrant childhood through his ascension to the cabinet post but, of course, precedes his long tenure in that position as well as his election to the United States Senate from Pennsylvania in which he served from 1930 to 1945.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. 12mo, 1778 pages, grey boards, tear at heel of spine repaired, inked name on endpaper Journalist Edson wrote this how-to book on writing a humor column. It actually was adopted by some J-schools. It bears Introductions by Don Marquis, Christopher Morley, George Horace Lorimer, Franklin…P. Adams. He gives advice such as, "Newspaper verse should be as simple as Mother Goose." Not himself having written an Introduction, Edson supplied an Appendix, in which he explores a rather literary feud involving F.P. Adams and young F. Scott Fitzgerald, and also how fatness influences humor. [ Lee Morley bibliography C-6 ].
