Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: Very Good. Later Edition. Four Steps to the Wall (1948) by Jon Edgar Webb is a gritty prison novel centered on John Ditto, a lifer convicted of murder who rises to power within the brutal internal society of a large American penitentiary. Inside the prison walls, Ditto becomes the unofficial "czar" of the…inmate population, controlling the shadow economy, settling disputes, and enforcing the unwritten laws of the convict world. The novel explores the closed masculine society of prison life—where alliances, intimidation, and violence determine survival. Ditto's power is constant but fragile: one mistake could cost him his authority or send him to solitary confinement ("the Hole"). As tensions grow between prisoners and the authorities who govern them, Ditto must navigate betrayal, rival factions, and the psychological strain of long-term incarceration. The story examines the moral compromises and emotional costs of power inside a sealed world ruled by fear, loyalty, and desperation. This scarce book is in very nice condition with just two small tears on the very bottom of the first two pages. Paperback edition. 214 pages. Dimensions: 4.25" by 7". Published by Bantam Books, New York. 1st printing, 1953. Multi-Color binding. Page defect(s): Some tears. 0.5 Pound Media Shipping Rate with Multiple Product Orders.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 2nd Edition. This is a rare, near pristine copy of the 1948 Jon Edgard Wedd novel published by Dial Press Books in 1948. Even though it was well received at the time, hardcover copies are not easy to come by and the book jacket is rarely found in this condition. With some very minor edgewear an…d creases around the edges, this jacket is in Near Fine condition. The interior pages have toning around the edges, but for a 76-year-old book, they're in pretty great shape. The inside of the jacket has a great publicity photograph of Webb and a short profile. The rear inside has a description of the book with a unique design graphic at the bottom. Jon Edgar Webb was a crime beat reporter at the Cleveland News when he decided to try to be a criminal himself. He robbed a jewelry story and managed to get in and out of the store with the goods, but during the getaway he went down the wrong alley and ended up serving 30 months in the Ohio State Reformatory. He was the editor of the prison newspaper and learned to set type before being paroled. While still in prison, Webb began writing chapters for the novel, and wrote several published short stories about prison life before the novel was finally published. As it directly relates to Bukowski, Jon Edgar Webb and his wife Louise were the founders of LouJon Press. The couple was responsible for transforming Bukowski into an established writer, even if fame wouldn't occur until years later. TLouJon published Bukowski's first true books, "It Catches My Heart In Its Hands" (1963) and "Crucifix in a Deathhand" (1965). These books are true works of art in and of themselves. The detail, the printing methods, the craftsmanship, and the pure insanity it took to undertake these endeavors was as unparalleled then and as it is today. They also published Outsider magazine, which became the standard for poetry journals at the time. No other publication attracted nearly the talent that appeared in its pages and the production value of the magazine itself was unrivaled. Bukowski appeared in all four issues, with a large collection of poems in Outsider 1 (1961) and as the named "Outside of the Year" in Outsider 3 (1963), featuring Bukowski on the cover and a large center section. Box 25.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. This scarce chapbook was produced by ecs in 1993 and features what appears to be four letters from John Edgar Webb to supporters and subscribers of The Outsider. Each of the four letters is specific to each issue of the magazine: Outsider 1, Outsider 2, Outsider 3, and Outsider 4/5. The content… of each letter is typical Webb pleas for financial support and tales of LouJon s trials and tribulations in putting out the issue at hand. Each issue leaves the press in the red, but thanks to the support of subscribers, another issue is eventually undertaken. The chapbook s title comes from the final letter concerning Outsider 4/5. It is reproduced here from a single sheet that Webb tipped into Outsider 4/5, once again announcing the imminent demise of the magazine. It would be the last issue, not necessarily for financial reasons, but because Jon Webb died on June 9, 1971. I have never seen the content of the first three sections, but I am making the assumption they were also messages sent to supporters. According to the colophon, eighty-eight copies sown in homeage march 1993 This is hand-numbered #33 of 88 copies and is in Near Fine condition. Not much is known about ecs, but this interesting little press seems to have been associated in some way to Letters Bookshop in Toronto, Canada. Back in 1987, Letters offered for sale Al Purdy's copies of "A Signature of Charles Bukowski Poetry" (Targets 4, December 1960) and "Charles Bukowski A Signature of Poetry" (Targets 15, September 1963) aka Signature 3. As part of the sale, ecs issued a faithful reproduction of Targets Signature 3 originally issued as a chapbook in Targets 15. Only 67 copies of the chapbook were stated to have been published. In parallel, tecs also published a side-stitched chapbook titled Signatures , a 32-page study that describes Targets 4 and Targets 15 in fascinating detail, including photocopies of the original publications. There are several quotes from Bukowski experts, such as Wormwood Review publisher Marvin Malone, who questioned even the existence of Signature 3. Only 35 copies of the chapbook were stated to have been published. The final ecs chapbook relating to Bukowski came on March 22, 1994, when a group of Bukowski faithful met at The Idler Pub in Toronto, Canada, to hold a wake for the recently deceased Charles Bukowski. As a tribute, ecs chapbook reprinted the classic Bukowski poem, Something for The Touts, The Nuns, The Grocery Clerks and You. Only 73 copies were stated to have been published. Box 25, Copy 1.
