Description
21/06/1930. William Faulkner once said that Thomas Wolfe, who died before age 40, may have been the greatest talent of his generation for aiming higher than any other writer. His influence extends to the writings of Beat Generation writer Jack Kerouac, and to authors Ray Bradbury and Philip Roth, among others. He was one of the first masters of autobiographical fiction, and his work was filled with details that came from his own life and his home in North Carolina, as well as that of his friends in New York.Henry Hart was an editor at Scribner’s. The two had a close and long relationship and corresponded as friends. In Christmas 1930 Wolfe wrote to Hart, with some cheeky remarks, one referencing Oscar Wilde and the other Calvin Coolidge.Autograph postcard signed, June 21, likely 1930, from Rouen, to Hart. ""Dear Henry, I finally got here, in order to uphold your reputation for veracity. Don't know how long I'll stay. Sedgewick, your other novelist, came down from Paris with me but has now gone back.""

Description
New York: Vanguard Press, 1930. Signed by Brandeis March 17, 1931 on Arthur Leonard Ross's early bookplate on the front pastedown. Original publisher's black cloth, title stamped in gilt on front cover and spine. xxi, [3], 419, [1 blank] pp. With frontispiece portrait of Brandeis, and half title. Near Fine. New York lawyer Arthur Leonard Ross had many well-known clients, such as Emma Goldman, Frank Harris, and H. L. Mencken. His large bookplate, by German artist Otto Ubbelohde and engraved by Botho Schmidt, deliberately left space for authorial autographs, which. Ross passionately collected. "Long before he came to the Supreme Court, Louis Dembitz Brandeis had emphasized the law's need of social and economic intelligence. With prophetic insight he foreshadowed many of the challenging problems which confront our world today, and devised 'social inventions' to cope with them. There was hardly a phase of economic, industrial and social life to which he did not turn his hand; labor, trusts, railroads, insurance, finance are but part. So he brought to the Court an unequalled wealth of experience in such matters. . ." Mason, Mr. Justice Brandeis and the Constitution, 80 U PA Law Review 799 (1932).
