Nash, Ogden
Four Prominent So and So's. Illustrated by OTTO SOGLOW. Music by R. Ambruster.
Imprint: New York, Simon & Schuster, 1934
Binding: Hardback
8vo., publisher's decorated wrappers. First complete edition. Nash wrote the piece to be performed at the Dutch Treat Club show in March, 1933. It was then published in a collection of poems entitled Happy Days, but in a Bowdlerized version. There then followed pirated editions of this version, until S & S decided to issue it in its original form. The work contains four cartoon drawings by the artist who is best remembered for his cartoon strip, "The Little King." The music and lyrics are provided at the rear, fully scored by Robert Ambruster. A very nice copy of an early Nash title.
