Item description from seller

Poor condition. Staple-bound sheets, H 29.75 x L 22.5cm, folded horizontally at center. Only pages 5-20 are present, page 5 appears to be the publication's title page; pages 1-4 and 21-22 missing, pages 23-24 presumed missing but unknown for certain if the publication had any pages past 22. Sheets quite edgeworn particularly at corners and fore-edges; some tears at center folds; interior soiling especially on page 16; pages 5-6 and 19-20 are detached from rusty staples; bottom quarter of page 13-14 cut out. OH LADY!, a campus student humor publication, features three drawings by Eudora Welty with each readily identified with the initialed signatures of "EW." The drawings are "Gentlemen Eating Peanuts" on page 7, "Staff" drawing on page 12, and "H.L. Mencken Singing the Star Spangled Banner in his Morning Tub" on page 16. The first and third drawings are cited on page 434 in the chronology section of Noel Polk's EUDORA WELTY; A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HER WORK but Dr. Polk failed to note the "Staff" drawing. None of the interior text is credited to Miss Welty but she is listed as a member of the OH LADY Art Staff on page 12. Merely 16 years old upon moving to the Columbus, Mississippi and enrolling at Mississippi State College for Women in 1925, Eudora Welty (April 13, 1909-July 23, 2001) had already published drawings and prose in several hometown Jackson, Mississippi and Memphis, Tennessee publications as well as the national periodical ST. NICHOLAS MAGAZINE. Welty only attended MSCW or "The W" (now known as Mississippi University for Women - MUW) for her freshman and sophomore years before transferring to the University of Wisconsin at Madison from which she graduated with a B.A. in 1929. Welty is one of only a few major American authors with a significant record of published juvenilia and, although the material obviously reflects some youthful frivolity, it does offer delightful insight to Welty's humor and literary development. Albeit an incomplete issue and in poor condition, this copy is still an intriguing Welty item and very scarce if not rare as "The W" had a limited enrollment of several hundred mostly in-state students and thus associated contemporary collegiate ephemera is quite unusual.
