[Rarebooks] FS: John Dos Passos THE GARBAGE MAN, 1926, in dustwrapper

[Charles Agvent]

DOS PASSOS, John. THE GARBAGE MAN. New York: Harper, 1926. First 
Edition. In the first state binding consisting of chocolate-brown boards 
with paper labels on the front cover and spine. Only 1,000 copies were 
printed of this play which combines traditional theater with elements of 
the music hall. Neat bookplate of John Glen Martner on the front 
pastedown. In the scarce dustwrapper designed by Dos Passos which, 
except for some light soiling and a 3/4" closed tear on the front cover 
in the gutter, is very nice indeed. A lovely copy in dustwrapper and 
rather scarce as such. 		$450.00
