I "To Jack Potter, best wishes, John Dos Passos, Chicago, Oct 31 '54".

Signed limited edition, number 279 of 350 sets, inscribed by the writer to his first bibliographer Jack Potter.

The USA Trilogy was first published in 1937, in a volume entitled U.S.A. The 42nd Parallel, Nineteen Nineteen, and The Big Money were originally published in 1930, 1932 and 1936 respectively and is the work for which Dos Passos is best known. The trilogy traces the historical evolution of American society during the beginning three decades of the twentieth century in an unusual nonlinear and experimental style, a technique which includes the incorporation of song lyrics (christened "Newsreels") and clippings of newspaper articles collaged beside the stories of multiple fictional narrators. Dos Passos also composed using an autobiographical form of stream of consciousness writing which he named the workings of a "Camera Eye" and which had considerable influence over writers such as Jean Paul Sartre.

The trilogy was written during a period in which Dos Passos aligned himself with the politics of the Left, before the 1950s in which disillusionment following the Spanish Civil War propelled him towards more of a contrary conservative outlook. Regardless, The USA Trilogy was a creation that followed the publication of his novel Manhattan Transfer, which lent his stream of consciousness technique to a commercial platform, and demonstrated John Dos Passos' beginning as a social revolutionary.

Great lead alternative!
Color: Blue, Size: Large
This works great for an alternative to just a slip lead. I work in a kennel and it makes it a lot easier to grip for the dogs that pull a lot.

Won’t stay in place
Color: Blue, Size: Large
While the leash was nicely made, the lead would not stay in place. The slide to hold the “O” ring in place kept sliding there for the leash would loosen. The padded handle was nice for sure

The dogs loved it! Will buy again.
Style: Squeaky Chicken
My dogs have really enjoyed all the layers to this toy. It squeaks and has a noisy film on the inside of the cloth that they really like. The toy itself is very stiff and rigid but they like that. It’s been about 3 months and they recently broke through the pink layer so it lasts quite a while. It was a challenge for them to get the layer off once they had broken through the stitching so it would keep him occupied for a very long time.
