About This Item
New York: Charles Boni, 1929. Soft cover. Very Good. Cream paper covers with muted green illustration of books and trees in a storm, black titles, 12mo, 350 pages plus a note from the publisher, beautiful endpapers; slight warp to text block, toning to spine. An installment of The Boni Paper Books series. The Boni Paper Books series was the brain child of Charles and Albert Boni, and an experiment in the new field of American paperback book publishing and the brand-new field of subscription mail order book clubs. The club launched in September of 1929 with The Bridge of San Luis Rey being the first title. The series lasted for 16 issues, but was not able to weather the financial strain of the great depression and ceased publishing in 1930. Along the way, the brothers created the spin-off paperback series Bonibooks, which reprinted many of the Paper Books titles as well as a number of other titles. Bonibooks were not sold by subscription.
