Ebony Rhythm: An Anthology of Contemporary Negro Verse
New York: Exposition Press, (1948).
Sold
Hardcover. First edition. Fine in an about good dustwrapper with a stain and modest loss, both at the foot of the spine, and modest erosion along the edge of the rear flap fold. Scarce anthology published by a vanity press. The editor conducted a column called *Ebony Rhythm* for the various newspapers of the Associated Negro Press. This volume includes verse by Langston Hughes, John Henrik Clarke, Georgia Douglas Johnson, Lucia Pitts, Frank Herbert Marshall, and a few other well-known writers, but perhaps more interestingly, includes verse published in newspapers, periodicals, and student publications, by nearly a hundred now obscure African-American poets.
