Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. MACELHONE, Harry [108] pp. Souvenir Press 2006 6 1/2" x 3 5/8" Harry's is a legendary institution that made its mark in the worlds of literature, music, art, politics - and of course drinking. Established in 1911, Harry's New York Bar is the birthplace of the Bloody Mary, the Side Car, the French 75, and a long list of other iconic cocktails. The bar itself - decorated with wood panelling, foreign banknotes, the shields of Oxford and Cambridge colleges, and, most notably, vintage American collegiate banners and felt pennants - was a favorite watering hole for the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre, Ernest Hemingway, Rita Hayworth, Jack Dempsey, the Duke of Windsor, Thornton Wilder, Marlene Dietrich, Humphrey Bogart, and Coco Chanel. The Piano Room downstairs was frequented by Gershwin, who composed "An American in Paris" there. Harry's New York Bar continues to be a gathering place for intellectuals, celebrities, sportsmen and rakes. Many have been inducted into Harry's very own secret society, the International Bar Flies (or I.B.F.), whose icon - two cartoon flies - adorn the mirror behind the bar. To this day, Harry's is known for its limited menu: a wide variety of the best cocktails in Paris, and to eat. only hot dogs.

Eighth Impression. Small octavo, original red cloth, illustrated dustjacket, 5" by 3 1/2", 102 pages. This copy nicely signed and inscribed by Mcelhone at half-title page and additionally signed and inscribed by Roy Barton at rear endpaper. Barton was an American composer and lyricist who co-wrote the Buzz Buzz Buzz song of the I. B. F. [International Bar Flies], the 'tongue in cheek' fraternity of Harry's New York Bar regulars and honorees (who had their own secret handshake and decorated their ties with a tie clip featuring two friendly looking, well dressed flies). In the I. B. F. handbook Barton is listed as one of four 'Dragon Flies' honorees. And in the Tenth edition of this title Roy Barton is credited for the recipe for the Zero Hour Cocktail. But more importantly is Barton's role in the lore of the invention of the Bloody Mary cocktail. According to many bloggers and journalists on the subject (and Fernand Petiot's obituary in the San Francisco Chronicle), the most likely genesis of the name Bloody Mary is that Roy Barton christened it thusly after being served a vodka and tomato juice drink by well known bartender at Harry's, Fernand Petiot, because it reminded him a of a Chicago club, the Bucket of Blood. A fascinating association copy and, one imagines, an incredible rarity.
