Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. B&W Illustrations; This book is in Very Good condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition, though there is noticeable ground-in dirt and rubbing. The text pages are mostly clean and bright, with some light, generalized toning throughout the text block. This copy is missing the advertisment on the front endpaper (only a few have been found with the ad). The book is a satire, in poetry format, of the snobbery of the upperclasses of England and the US during this time period. "Mortimer Q. Thomson (September 2, 1832 June 25, 1875) was an American journalist and humorist who wrote under the pseudonym Q. K. Philander Doesticks. He was born in Riga, New York and grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He attended Michigan University in Ann Arbor, but was expelled along with several others either for his involvement in secret societies or for "too much enterprise in securing subjects for the dissecting room." After a brief period working in theater, he became a journalist and lecturer. For his published writings he used the pen name "Q. K. Philander Doesticks, P. B." , a pseudonym he had first used in university (the full version is "Queer Kritter Philander Doesticks, Perfect Brick"). A collection published in 1855, Doesticks What He Says, reprinted many of his pieces. In 1856 he wrote Plu-Ri-Bus-Tah, a parody of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's The Song of Hiawatha. " (from Wikipedia).

12mo, pp. [i-iii] iv [v] vi-viii [ix] x-xi [xii-xiii] xiv-xxiv] [25-27] 28-264 + 10 pages of publisher's ads followed by a blank leaf, flyleaves at front and rear, Illustrations "interpolated" by John M'Lenan, original decorated brown cloth, front and rear panels stamped in blind, spine panel stamped in gold, blue coated endpapers. First edition. A classic of early American humor, including numerous silhouette-like illustrations by McLenan, also well known as a comic draftsman. "His work will bear comparison with the best of his time." - Hamilton 1063. Doesticks was a national figure before the publication of this parody in verse which had a tremendous sale and considerably enhanced his reputation. "With this book-length mock-heroic, precipitated by the wave of interest in Longfellow's HIAWATHA, he achieved a national hit, taking hits at American follies, especially American love of money. Although it was probably begun as a parody, it soon achieved independent position on its own merits as social satire . The Ring Lardner of his day, he brought to American humor terse, vigorous, quick moving phases and vivid slang, and became the most popular American humorist writing in the period before that of Charles Farrar Browne." - DAB. BAL 20092 (state A of the advertisements, no priority established). Harris Collection Catalogue, p. 284 (recording a later printing). A early copy with contemporary gift inscription dated 3 May 1856 (the month of publication) on the front flyleaf. A fine copy. A lovely copy of a somewhat uncommon book rarely found in such spectacular condition. (#148175).
