222pp., intro., numerous b/w illustrations. A documentation of censorship from earliest times with detailed descriptions and reports of censorship in the United States from the 1820s to 1956. This has nothing to do with William Edwin Sprague's book of the same title, published in 1970 by Academy Press; this volume is a piracy of Volume 1 of Sex, Censorship and Pornogarphy by Donald H. Gilmore, published by Greenleaf Classics in 1969. The Parisian origin is highly doubtful. 'Photograph page 133, Plate 22. Walt Whitman and his beloved streetcar conductor, Peter. The two made no pretense about their love affair and Whitman left Peter a sum in his will. Many feel that Whitman's conduct with Peter caused his dismissal from the Department of the Interior. Early photograph. Digest-sized printed wrappers. Light shelfwear. Very good.

Trade Paperback. Etat : Near Fine. R. Crumb and Others (illustrateur). First Thus. Book appears near sharp and virtually unread. A pirate edition of the Greenleaf Classics version which is apt since the author name is a pseudonym for comics historian and archivist Bill Blackbeard. Book is a study of underground adult newspapers and comic books of the late 1960's and is quite uncommon in whatever edition one finds it. Many examples of work by R. Crumb, S. Clay Wilson and others throughout the section on comix. 16 pages of highly hardcore photos, in color, at centerspread with many black and white photos and illustrations abundant throughout the text. Appears to be missing the bibliographical information found at the rear of the Greenleaf original, but is otherwise identical to it. 192 pages + 16 pages of color photos at centerspread.
