First Edition
Softbound. First edition. The second of three books on flower arranging by William Burroughs' mother sponsored by the Coca-Cola Company! Illustrated with amazingly kitchy color photos of flower arrangements, some posed with bottles of Coke. Interesting item because her middle name "Lee" was the pseudonym Burroughs used for his first book Junkie. She owned a gift shop called "Cobblestone Gardens," later the title of one of Burroughs' books. A revealing look at the upper middle class values that sent Burroughs looking for a different lifestyle. Couple of corner creases, faint name to corner of front cover, very good.

Book First Edition
Pictorial Wraps. Condition: Good. First Edition. Flower Arranging: A Fascinating Hobby - Volume 2 (of 3). Classic 1940s home decor book on flower arranging. Author Laura Lee Burroughs is the mother of Beat Generation author William S. Burroughs, who used his mother's maiden name when his first book Junkie was published under William Lee. Illustrated with numerous full-page colour photographs throughout. Introduction by Richardson Wright (Editor-in-Chief, House & Garden). Produced by Coca-Cola, with bottles of Coke appearing in several photographs along with flowers in various social scenarios. There were a total of three of these booklets produced by Coca-Cola in the successive years 1940, '41 & '42. Thin booklet. Staplebound pictorial wraps. Printed in the USA. A good copy only. Handling wear, large closed tear along top half of front cover at spine, faint staining to cover & early pages, otherwise a clean solid softcover copy. 80pp. Fascinating & somewhat frightening look at 1940s home decor, mind-boggling when you consider the offspring. Speculation runs rampant regarding the possible influence on the future-creator of Naked Lunch. The third volume contains a colour photograph of Laura Lee Burroughs in which she resembles her son. For the Beat Generation completist! SB-3.
