Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. This is the 1992 Reprint of "1001 Afternoons in Chicago:" by Ben Hecht, with wonderful pen and ink illustrations by Herman Rosse, published by the University of Chicago Press. The following is from the book's blurb : "In 1921 Ben Hecht wrote a column for the 'Chicago Daily News', which his editor called 'journalism extraordinary; journalism that invaded the realm of literature!' Hecht's collection of sixty-four of those pieces, illustrated with striking pen drawings by Herman Ross, is a timeless caricature or urban American life" ******************************************* Booknoodle talking here : . and specifically Chicago urban life, which included all that one might expect from the jazz age : nightclubs, jazz and blues music, conspicuously eccentric persons, crowded life, back alleys, automotive dreams and craziness, big city entertainment personalities . and looming over it all the towering skyscrapers that were championed as heralding the new American life. ******************************************* And, again from the blurb : said "the New York Times" : "Mr. Hecht is attempting to do for Chicago what Dickens did for London; he stands appalled before the spectacle of the streets, with their tumultuous, mysterious throngs." Further, L. S. Klepp, of "Voice Literary Supplement", is also quoted on the rear cover: " The hard-boiled audacity and wit that became Hecht's signature as Hollywood's most celebrated screen-writer are conspicuous in these vignettes. Most of them are comic and sardonic, some strike muted tragic or somber atmospheric notes . The best are timeless character sketches that have taken on an added interest as shards of social history." ******************************************* TITLE : 1001 Afternoons in Chicago / AUTHOR : Ben Hecht (1894 - 1964) / PREFACE : Henry Justin Smith ( 1875 - 1936) [ Managing Editor of the Chicago Daily Mail ] / ILLUSTRATIONS : Herman Rosse (1887 - 1965) / IMPRINT : University of Chicago Press / PLACE : Chicago / DATE : (1992) / EDITION : First Printing of this University of Chicago reprint / STATUS : Out of Print / PHYSICAL DETAILS : Large Trade Paperback; Illustrated throughout with line vignettes and full page drawings; has the original Preface by Henry Justin Smith; just under 289 pages (small disparity between the page count of this reprint and the original edition); 6 5/8" x 9 3/8" ; pictorial wraps, glued. ******************************************** CONDITION .

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Illustrated by (cover caricature) Erik Johan Smith (illustrator). Limited/Numbered Edition. (plastic-comb binding with wraparound illustrated boards; no dust jacket, as issued) [nice copy, as-new except for a tiny circle of indentations on the front cover]. (B&W photographs, facsimiles) A collection of long out-of-print pieces by Hecht, assembled within a kind of artist's-book format, with numerous illustrations, many of which are glued in by hand (they are referred to by the publisher as "color appliques," and were replaced in later editions with printed versions); a few are printed on clear mylar. Artists and illustrators whose work is reproduced include Herman Rosse, Frank Charles Peyraud, Wallace Smith, George Grosz, and Jerome Blum; there is also some biographical information about Rosse and Grosz. Per the limitation page, this is one of "75 copies of which this is Number 3. Numbers 1-24 comprise a uniform edition, after which there will be a color change on the inner cover." Two NOTES: (1) the leaf containing pages 63/64 is bound in upside down; (2) the publication information refers to a "hand-painted frontispiece by Sheila Crider," but in the acknowledgements it's referred to as "our exuberant cover of Sheila Crider's paint on hand made paper"; it is quite clearly the latter (not a pictorial "frontispiece" as that term is generally understood); at any rate, it's very nice -- but it's the inner cover (not the outer cover), and is positioned beneath a clear mylar page on which the title of the volume is printed.
