first edition Softcover
1913 · Dansville, N.Y. / Chicago
by WASHINGTON, Booker T.
Dansville, N.Y. / Chicago: F.A. Owen Publ. Co. / Hall & McCreary, 1913. Softcover. Very Good. First edition, cloth issued. 12mo. 31pp. Stapled decorated flexible cloth wrappers. Biographical sketch by Emmett Scott. Inked ownership of a sixth grade, staples a bit rusted, wear at upper corner, near very good. A pamphlet in the Instructor Literature Series, intended for schools. Date stated as 1913 but the biographical sketch reveals this wasn't printed until after Washington's death in 1915, presumably either edited from previous publications. Also issued in paper wrappers. Not in *Work*. Very uncommon, especially this cloth issue. (Inventory #: 593731)
