Unbound. Condition: Good. Original typescript. Quarto. 27 typed pages stapled at the upper left corner with the title and author's names in manuscript, and ink stamp of "Dr. Edmond Pauker, Capitol Theatre Building, 1639 Broadway New York," on the top margin of the first page. The first and last sheets are toned with a few scatte…red small chips and short tears at the edges, the last sheet is detached, else very good. An English translation of the preface to the Firner's *Kleine Brüder*, a pictorial book of animals written for children and published in Zürich in 1949. It was most likely translated (from the German) by Edmond Pauker, a prominent Hungarian-born literary agent and play broker based in New York City. The long preface tells the stories of several different animals and their families, often interweaving the author's own personal encounters and relationships with them, including this instructive anecdote about the dog Josi: "he was fond of all people and saw no reason why he should bark at them. That was no doubt highly laudable and of great ethical value. A couple of lovers, entire strangers to us, spent many a summer night in our garden, and we should never have known of it had they not left a pleasant note of thanks in the fall, when it grew too cold for outdoor lovemaking. Josi, whose sensitive ears had no doubt made him aware of the lover's presence, had kept a discreet and tactful silence." A delightful series of anecdotes designed to teach children not only about the birds and the bees, but also about the bonds of kinship within families, and between species.
