[modest shelfwear, slight deterioration to cloth at ends of spine; the jacket is a bit edgeworn, with a slightly ragged closed tear and associated creasing at the top of the front panel, another short closed tear at the top of the rear panel, and some fading to the spine]. SIGNED and DATED by the author on the ffep, with an additional gift inscription in another hand. "Sol Kenner, the immigrant boy from Pedayetz, Galicia, has been in America for nearly four years and is now holding down a job during the day, going to high school at night and keeping company with an American girl." His job, in an upholstery shop, gets him involved in labor union matters, and he finds the relative sophistication of his 17-year-old girlfriend a bit bewildering, as does his old-fashioned Talmud-studying father. (Galicia, in case you're wondering, is a region spanning present-day southeastern Poland and western Ukraine.) Signed by Author
