Description
Upton Sinclair. Singing Jailbirds, A Drama in Four Acts. Pasadena: published by the author, 1924.First edition. Twelvemo. 95 pages plus a one-page ad for a previous Sinclair book.
Original stapled wraps. Faint half-inch stain to front cover. A shallow crease to the first few pages. As expected, pages yellowing a bit. Overall, a very good copy.
A play written in response to a strike of transport workers in San Pedro, California in 1923, during which Sinclair was arrested and jailed. Laid in is a small flier advertising a roster of lectures and publications of the Industrial Workers of the World; flier is undated, but, presumably, it is from 1924.
