The contents with a previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown foxing to the endpapers and the occasional mark to page margins are otherwise in good order. The drawings remain clean and bright. Percy Reginald Stephensen 1901-1965 was an Australian writer publisher and political activist first for the Communists and later for far-right groups. In this satirical work he mocks the Conservative politician Sir William Joynson-Hicks who was well-known for his authoritarianism his campaigns against Communism and his attempts to clamp down on nightclubs and what he saw as the indecent literature of the roaring twenties or what he termed "the flood of filth coming across the Channel". Notably he was heavily implicated in the banning of Radclyffe Hall's lesbian novel The Well of Loneliness 1928 as well as in forcing the publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover in an expurgated version. As D.H. Lawrence was a good friend of Stephensen this was perhaps part of the reason for the present satire. Egan's drawings greatly influenced by the work of Aubrey Beardsley and imbued with the spirit of 1920s decadence provide the perfect riposte to Joynson-Hick's reactionary moralising.
