R. C. DonaldrysParis and London: Privatdruck, Europa Verlag, 1950.
.
19cm x 15cm. 29 pages. Quarter cloth, decorative papered boards. Text is in German.
Clandestine German erotic tale produced as a mimeographed typescript in a stated edition of 50 copies. The title page credits the work as being translated from the English by R. C. Donaldrys, though neither the translator nor English-language original has been traced. The production method is somewhat reminiscent of the Soho Typescripts, clandestinely produced pornographic fiction associated with London’s Soho book trade in the 1950s and 60s, but any direct link remains speculative. Unrecorded in OCLC.
Minor chipping to spine head and tail. Very Good Condition.
