McALMON, Robert
Post-Adolescence
First edition. A bit of light dampstaining at the base of the wrappers, and a little edge wear, else a near fine, uncut copy. McAlmon was the founder of Contact Editions which published James Joyce, Ezra Pound, and several others, including Ernest Hemingway's first book. He was at the center of expatriate life and helped to support various struggling artists and writers in that tumultuous time. The author's second book, published at his own expense prior to the formation of Contact Editions. A particularly nice copy, containing a long Inscription by McAlmon dated in 1951.
