About this Item

Philip Randolph, the renowned president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters who led the union in its successful struggle against the Pullman Company: "This limited edition is published as a New Year's greeting to friends of the publisher." Inscribed by A. Philip Randolph on the half-title page: "To Dan Johnson, Sincerely, A. Philip Randolph." Additionally inscribed by Jervis Anderson opposite the colophon leaf: "To Dan Johnson with compliments for his important work in black history, Jervis Anderson."
