[RADICAL & PROLETARIAN LITERATURE] LE PRADE, Ruth (editor); SINCLAIR, Upton (introduction)
Debs and the Poets Two Copies Inscribed by Eugene Debs and Ruth Le Prade to Helen L. Gardner
Pasadena: Upton Sinclair 1920. Two octavo volumes 18.75cm; maroon cloth with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; ii9911pp. The first copy is inscribed by Eugene Debs to American film actress screenwriter and editor Helen Louise Gardner on the front endpaper: "To Helen L. Gardner / With love and greetings and with deep appreciation for her beautiful character her lofty spirit her rare vision courage understanding and her high ideals and noble aspirations - Eugene V. Debs / Terre Haute Indiana / December 1924." Gentle sunning to spine oxidation to gilt with moderate scattered soil to covers light wear to extremities and heavier wear with resulting board exposure to upper right corner of front cover; mild offset to endpapers from binders glue; Good. Housed in a clamshell case. <br /> <br /> The second copy is inscribed to Gardner by Ruth Le Prade opposite the title page: "To Helen Gardner - with cordial greetings / Ruth Le Prade." Spine-sunned cloth edge-worn and lightly soiled with oxidation to gilt a few small stains to front cover some erosion to cloth toward lower spine and mild offset to endpapers from binders glue; Good. Poems honoring socialist leader Eugene Debs by a variety of radical 20th century poets including Witter Bynner Max Eastman Charlotte Perkins Gilman Carl Sandburg Siegfried Sassoon Horace Traubel and Israel Zangwill many others. Sinclair contributed the foreword along with letters from H.G. Wells and George Bernard Shaw who states: "Clearly the White House is the only safe place for an honest man like Debs". An interesting pair of copies inscribed to Gardner 1884-1968 acclaimed stage actress and the first actress to form her own production company. <br /> <br /> Moved by his circumstances and deeply influenced by his speeches she visited him in prison in 1920 bringing him an autographed photo and beginning a correspondence that would last through the mid-1920's. In a December 21 1920 letter she writes: "Let me tell you that I was surprised to find my emotional self somewhat unaffected while I listened to you talk. I know the reason now. It is the same with you as it was with Epictetus prison walls cannot confine the spirit -- the mind is ever free. So in a way I did not feel your plight as keenly as I would that of another who had little vision little intelligence little understanding about his body being so small a part of the real him that his confinement was of the physical order only." While the "special edition" of 500 with signed bookplate by Debs appears with some frequency inscribed copies of Debs and the Poets are genuinely uncommon. Upton Sinclair unknown

[Robert Frost] Suckow, Ruth
Children and Older People
New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1931. First edition. 8vo 277 1pp. Inscribed by Suckow to Robert Frost on the ffep with an address in Cedar Falls Iowa in Frost's hand above the inscription. Publisher's pink cloth boards with blue lettering and design in jacket. Cloth stained on rear board spine cocked. Jacket with chipping at spine ends and corners. Very good. <p><br /> <br /> Lovely presentation copy of this short story collection from the regionalist author from Iowa Ruth Suckow 1892-1960. Suckow married literary critic and artist from Cedar Falls Ferner Nuhn in 1929 and the two became friends with Robert Frost each and admirer of the other's work. Suckow and Frost corresponded by letter with Frost praising her writing on Iowa and its people as being quite genuine. The couple even spent a summer at Frost's home in Vermont. <br /> <br /> This copy was likely inscribed in 1940 when Frost visited the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls in 1940 speaking and reading to a large crowd. <br /> <br /> This book is unaccountably scarce to begin with and Suckow is far less well remembered outside of Iowa than she should be. The association between her and Frost gives a good example his reaching influence on American regionalist writing in the first half of the 20th century. As Suckow poignantly inscribes this copy:<br /> <br /> </p> <br /> <p>"We love the things we love for what they are."</p> . Alfred A. Knopf unknown

1975. Old Greenwich Connecticut The Devin-Adair Company 1975. 19.7cm x 12.8cm. 123 pages plus Appendix. Original illustrated softcover. Excellent condition. Unusual and rare publication using Synge's Aran Island guide and adding local lodging to the Aran Islands in 1960s Ireland for the american tourist-market. The Aran Islands of Aranmore Inishman and Inishere lie thirty miles from Galway and so attracted J.M. Synge that he returned to them time and again. He here recounts his travels and encounters on the islands telling of magic wells poteen drinkers fishing expeditions in currachs and stories told him by the solemn Pat Dirane of islanders fallen victim to the druids and the fairies. Synge developed a great and reciprocated affection for these fine-featured people for the ungovernable eyes and wild jests of the men and for the dark beauty of the women dressed in their heavy scarlet-wool clothes. He faithfully records the pathos and strangeness of the life of the Aran peasantry at the turn of the century. The book is illustrated with fourteen of Synge's own photographs depicting rope-making kelp collecting and drying threshing wool-spinning the horrors of evictions and many other aspects of island life. 'I had some photographs to show them that I took here last year' which were 'examined with great delight and every person in them identified.' paperback

[Women's History] Hale, Ruth
Photograph of Ruth Hale Possibly at the Pendleton Round-Up C. 1922-1923
Oregon 1923. Silver gelatin photograph mounted to cardstock measuring 6 ¼ by 4 ⅞ inches. Press marks verso. Some wear very good overall. Very Good. An image of the women’s rights activist and author Ruth Hale likely taken at one of her well-publicized trips to the Pendleton Round-Up in Oregon in 1922 or 1923. Hale is shown on horseback in western attire. Hale was very active during this period in efforts to allow women to keep their names after marriage. The verso identifies her as “Ruth Hale / Mrs. Heywood sic Brown.†Hale traveled with a group of Eastern writers to the Pembleton Round-Up in 1922 and 1923 though she appears to have gotten lost in 1922 a trip that was covered widely at the time. We find no other record of this image which was found in the Brown Brothers archive. unknown
