London, Jack, introduction; H. D. Umbstaetter.

THE RED HOT DOLLAR; And Other Stories from The Black Cat.

Boston: L.C. Page & Co., (1911). First edition. Umbstaetter's tales with an introduction by London who credits him with saving his literary life (and perhaps his literal one) by accepting one of London's stories for publication in "Black Cat" magazine -- and paying for it immediately rather than making him wait until publication. About very good with spine faded and few light stains. Lacking the rare dust jacket.
