Item description from seller

(yellow cloth; no dust jacket) [well-worn ex-lending library book, considerable soiling to cloth, part of jacket flap glued to front pastedown, pocket on rear pastedown, circulation slip (unmarked) glued to ffep]. (cartoon drawings) "The sentimental adventures of a hard-boiled debutante. The romantic story of the best- looking girl in town. The funniest novel ever written about modern girls. The bright ideas of a quite sweet girl abroad and at home." Or, to put in another way, one of the numerous knock-offs of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" that started appearing in the late 1920's in the wake of the success of that Anita Loos book. This one is at least enlivened by some amusing cartoon drawings of the flapper protagonist, somewhat in the style of John Held Jr. The prose gimmick here (apart from the predictable and somewhat tedious malapropisms) seems to be the use of eccentrically-placed capital letters, e.g. "WELL, my dear, I NEARly colLAPSED at this DINner party that Clyde proceeded to give at this point.".…

Description de la boutique

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.…
