SIGNED, Inscribed & Dated by Author on upper area of front flyleaf: "To Jane Mallendorf (Mollendorf?), Sincerely, Langston Hughes April 15, 1949" and SIGNED by Illustrator, Jacob Lawrence, at lower left of same page. Generally a very attractive, clean copy; spine is moderately cocked with bright gilding & crisp ends, top corners lightly bumped, edges lightly faded, text crisp & clean, perhaps very lightly agetoned but still a nice soft creamy white. Dust jacket is printed on a non-glossy offwhite heavy paper with solid deep soft maroon front panel with pale green title lettering & white reverse author & illustrator lettering, pale green spine panel with maroon lettering, white back panel with maroon & pale green lettering. The spine & back panels show evidence of agetoning, the top edges show a bit of very light bumping & tiny chipping with a bit of light colorchipping at the spine top & top of folds; price is present on the front flap; over-all quite attractive and protected in a clear archival mylar cover which reveals no flaws on the backside. Both author and illustrator were (and remain) recognized as strong social influencers of their day through the expertise of their respective arts, having each received many, many professional accolades & awards. The publisher notes on the front flap, "Mr. Lawrence has caught with aptness and insight the very spirit of Langston Hughe's work. The result is a remarkable unity of text and design."
