About This Item
New York: Judge Publishing Co., 1929. First Edition . Illustrated Wraps. Very Good Plus. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. James Tramgath. New York: Judge Publishing Co., 1929. First Edition. February 9, 1929 issue. 11" x 8 3/8"; illustrated wraps, 32 pp. Cover by James Tramgath, interior illustrations in B&W by a variety of artists and cartoonists, including Gardner Ray and R.B. Fuller. Remarkable condition for a Judge issue from the 20's. Some soiling / toning, more so on back cover, otherwise a bright, colorful, strong VG+ or better copy. Very sharp. A very representative issue of this famous and long-lived weekly magazine of humor & satire, which by this time was very Art-Deco in its illustrations; plenty of flapper-ism, too. Delightful James "TramGath" cover depicts a strikingly pretty young flaper pinning a variety of wardrobe items up to dry, with the painting title: "A Good Hangout". Jokes, cartoons and satire abound, interestingly unencumbered by current forms of political correctness. Some of the cartoons are really quite Deco here. Superb piece of Americana and American humor, laced with very with-it art. A very handsomely preserved copy, which is itself something of a rarity for issues from the era. -G
