[New York? The Author, circa 1977].
Price: $500.00
Softcover. First edition. Quarto. 41 leaves printed rectos only. Tiny stains and age-toning on the wrappers, and slight spine wear, else very good or better, internally fine. Inscribed: "November 11, 1977. To Sonya whose love of and understanding has enormously impressed me. J. Louise Despert." No publication information but from context probably published in New York, almost certainly by the author/artist. Contains 41 amateurish printed drawings of scenes in New York with printed captions that indicate a feminist, antiestablishment, and acerbic viewpoint. Dr. Juliette Louise Despert (1892-1982) was a child psychiatrist and author of *Children of Divorce*, which is considered by many as an authoritative work on the subject and several other works on child psychology. *OCLC* locates no copies of this work. Presumably rare.
