Description:
New York: Harper and Brothers, 1934. Book. Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Pictorial paper-covered boards. Moisture contact has resulted in mild wrinkling to paper over front board; mild rubbing along edges and corners, as expected. Dampstaining inside front cover and evident along text block fore-edge, with slight waviness to a few early leaves, thus techically Good only, but interior is otherwise nearly unaffected, still a relatively decent copy. Stated 1st edition (K-I). Illus. w/ 215 b&w photographs. A glimpse of NYC in the early years of the Great Depression..

Description:
Harper & Brothers, 1934-01-01. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. First edition. Bound in publisher's pictorial boards. Hardcover. Spine chipped, minor wear to extremities. Clean, unmarked pages. "Moody black-and-white coverage of day-to-day life in New York in the '30s. Beggars, snow-shoveling squads, schooner crews, railroad commuters, subway crowds, tenement life, tugboats, a sidewalk craps game - this is a romantic masterpiece of street photography. The cover soils easily; don't be picky." - CHRISTOPHER GRAY, "Rare Books About New York, Streetscapes," New York Times, OCT. 14, 2010

It shows how they live, work, get about and play, both the rich and the poor, the fortunate and unfortunate.
