BARR, Cecil [KAHANE, Jack] - Bright Pink Youth Paris: The Obelisk Press (1934) 8vo; Heavy paper wrappers with fold-over flaps; The striking illustration on the upper cover by G.

First edition published in August 1934. One of publisher Jack Kahane's six books written under the pseudonym of 'Cecil Barr', used according to Kahane / The Obelisk Press Bibliographer Neil Pearson in homage to his favourite bar in the Cecil Hotel in Paris. Kahane would become depressed by the success of his 'Barr' books, given the heavyweight literary company he kept, that these books were often a source of deep embarrassment for him. Salacious, gratuitous and successful they were though with copies of the adventures of 'Tommy Trans-Wood and his Wife' selling so well, it needed a second printing and then a second edition in 1955. It is rare to find a first edition in such good condition. [Pearson A-31].

Aggiungi al carrello8vo, pp. 282. Original illustrated stiff paper wrappers. Small snag and faint crease to leading edge of front wrapper, 1cm closed tear to foot of spine. A very good copy. Second edition. First published by the Obelisk Press in 1934. 'Cecil Barr' was the sometime pseudonym of Jack Kahane, proprietor of the Obelisk Press, whose fa…vourite watering hole in Paris was the bar of the Cecil Hotel. Kahane died in 1939 and Obelisk as a going concern died with him, but his son Maurice Girodias of the Olympia Press would revive the imprint's name from time to time, conferring as it did a commercially useful promise of smut on books bearing its name. Upon consulting his own bibliography of the Obelisk Press (Obelisk: A History of Jack Kahane and the Obelisk Press, LUP 2007), your cataloguer found the following entry for this book: 'Second edition. 1955. Not seen.' Given the compiling of the bibliography took four and a half years, I have no hesitation in pronouncing this book rare. Pearson A31c.

Kahane, writer, publisher, and founder of the Obelisk Press, wrote several novels under the pseudonym Cecil Barr, this being among the earliest. A very scarce book, especially in the dust jacket, which features marvelously risque artwork by Constantin Aladjalov. Very slight lean,… discreet pencil ownership inscription on the front pastedown, placed to be hidden beneath the jacket flap; near fine in an excellent example of the scarce dust jacket, just a bit faded on the spine, with a touch of rubbing to the extremities and a small triangular chip to the upper rear corner.
