Condition: Very good plus. First printing. Inscribed first edition of this anthology of short fiction from more than two dozen Black writers - signed by the Baltimore-based editor to a local educator. An anthology of stories originally published in the Baltimore newspaper, the AFRO-AMERICAN, inscribed by editor/contributor Ford to local African American junior high English teacher Reba Tasco. The book was subsequently owned (Tasco died in 1952 at just 46 years of age) by prominent Cecil County citizen Charles W. Caldwell. Caldwell served as principal of the Elkton Colored School (later George Washington Carver) beginning in 1929, a position he maintained until the school closed in 1964, and received the Elkton Citizen Of The Year Award in 1965.

Patterson, Edward Lawson, Roland T. Hamilton, Albert Monn, March Lacy, James H. Hill, Harry Winston, Ed Lacy, Arthur Propes, Rudolph Fisher, H.L. Faggett, Gene Davis, Edwina S. Dixon, John P.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. First edition. Foreword by Carl Murphy, President of Afro-American Newspapers and Civil Rights leader. Near fine with the rear board a bit bowed and a touch of bumping at the corners. Inscribed by Murphy. A very uncommon title, an anthology of stories, taken from the pages of the *Afro-American* newspaper in Baltimore, founded by former enslaved Civil War veteran John H. Murphy Sr. in 1897. Contributors include Ford, Faggett, Rudolph Fisher, Ollie Stewart, Ruth Johnson and many others. Carl Murphy took over as editor of the *Afro-American* in 1922. He was very active in the local Black community and served as president of the Baltimore branch of the NAACP, who with the help of Thurgood Marshall, forced the University of Maryland to open its law school to black students.
