1930ref. 59487New York: Horace Liveright 1930. Second Printing same year as the first. Octavo 21cm; black cloth with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; illustrated endpapers; 1213-3093pp; illus. Inscribed by the author in year of publication the half-title page: "To Erskine and Sara / with never-ceasing affection / Sincerely & fraternally / Michael Gold." Further inscribed by Wood: "From Erskine & Sara to their dear friend Max Rosenberg - echoing the above - The Cats / July 1930." A tight clean copy in the original cloth binding; board corners lightly bumped and a few mild taps to board edges the endpapers illustrated after woodcuts by Howard Simon. Solidly Very Good lacking the scarce dustwrapper. A great association copy inscribed by Gold to one of the leading leftist intellectuals and authors of his time. Wood 1852-1944 was a self-styled anarchist aesthete and painter. As an attorney in the 1920s he defended a number of prominent figures on the left including the anarchist lecturer Emma Goldman and contributed prolifically to the radical periodicals of the period. With his second wife Sara Bard Field he was a long-time resident of Los Gatos California and was known for entertaining visitors at the estate "The Cats" mentioned in the present inscription. Interestingly Wood did not have a reputation for sympathy with doctrinaire Marxist thought; it seems unlikely that Gold would have written Wood such an effusive inscription even a few years later as during the Great Depression he would rise to become one of the leading apparatchiks in the CPUSA.

1930ref. 5178London: Noel Douglas. 1930 1930. First UK edition printed in the same year as the first edition in America. 185x120mm. pp. 319 1bl. Green cloth spine lettered in gold. Fading to spine. Original dustjacket torn at top and foot of spine and with chipping to corners with some slight loss and rubbing to joints of jacket. A little shaken but overall a very good copy of a rare book and extremely hard to find in the jacket no copies appearing in the auction records. Jews without Money is a semi-autobiographical work sometimes referred to as the first important Lower East Side novel and the progenitor of "an entire cycle of novels about a racialized US working class". The publisher's blurb describes it brilliantly thus: "With untrimmed speech the author's tailors gangsters and prostitutes reflect the despairing effort of the Jewish spirit to survive the degradation of American slumdom: a tragic yet humorous story of Ancient Israel struggling in the Underworld of the most modern City". An important book in the development of the American novel. London: Noel Douglas. 1930 hardcover
