History of the Class of 1907. New Haven: Yale University, 1907 and eight letters from or relating to Sinclair Lewis. Blue cloth, re-backed with original spine laid over, 450 pp., very good condition. This yearbook was SIGNED by nearly every member of the class of 1907 including "Harry" Sinclair Lewis. This use of his first name in his signature is highly unusual. Lewis stopped using his first name by 1907 when his personal diaries reflected the change from his earlier "Harry S. Lewis" and "H. S. Lewis" to "Sinclair Lewis" in his final college diary. Other signatures in the yearbook include Pop Warner. This collection was used as the basis for an article titled "On a First Name Basis" published in the Sinclair Lewis Society Newsletter (Fall 2005). E. (Elias) Robert Stevenson and (Harry) Sinclair Lewis were close friends from Yale who maintained contact throughout their lives. Stevenson became a newspaper man and spent most of his career as an editor at the Republican-American in Waterbury, Connecticut. He was the model for the character Doremus Jessup in Lewis' It Can't Happen Here. Lewis visited Stevenson and toured the brass factories in Waterbury while doing research for a labor novel he never completed, signing this yearbook on one of those visits. A group of letters from Lewis (and others) to E. Robert Stevenson, a few related newspaper clippings, and a copy of the article "On a First Name Basis" are part of this grouping: 2-6-31 Letter from Lewis regarding Billy Sunday & Cornelius Vanderbilt "roast." 6-4-36 Letter from Lewis - going to be in Waterbury next week, "not for publication." 7-28-36 Letter from Lewis - Greetings. 2-17-37 Letter from Lewis regarding Supreme Court legislation - refers to Dorothy Thompson's column in Herald Tribune today. 6-11-37 Letter from Lewis - not going to the Yale reunion. 7-3-?? Letter from Dorothy Thompson regarding a nice editorial. 7-12-51 Letter from Ethel Fairmont Beebe regarding Harrison Smith research (author of From Main Street to Stockholm: Letters of Sinclair Lewis 1919-1930, published in 1952). 8-17-54 Letter from biographer Mark Schorer asking ERS for information regarding Sinclair Lewis, specifically relating to sociological data on Waterbury he may have provided Lewis for his labor novel.

[i-viii]+[1]+301+[302-04] pages. Octavo (8" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's red cloth with gilt title and author's name on spine and embossed "SL" on cover in original jacket. (Pastore: 251) First state, limited to 10,000 copies with title page 1/4 inch shorter at bottom than surrounding leaves, corrected in later print run. Lewis had commented to several parties privately that Doubleday, Doran was putting too much focus on the Nobel Prize and too little on him. Word reached the publisher and the result was the addition of Lewis's initials to the olive branch motif on the cover of this and subsequent novels. The novel in an attack on the Communist left as a response the way It can't Happen Here was an attack on the totalitarian right; it deals with the "generation gap" and was soundly criticized by Lewis's former socialistic associates, Upton Sinclair, in particular, who vied the book as an apologia for middle-class values and mores, those same values and mores which Lewis had so well…

[i-viii]+[3]-438+[436-40] pages. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's beige cloth with gilt "SL" on cover, gilt lettering of title and author over red rectangles on spine in original jacket. (Pastore page 267) First edition. The novel tells the story of Gideon Planish, an unprincipled social climber who becomes involved in various shady philanthropic organizations in his quest for stature without accountability. The work did not fare as well with critics as some of Lewis' earlier social novels, and is considered one of his minor works. Condition: Jacket spine ends chipped and rubbed, price clipped, closed edge tears with some small chips. chips to corners else a very good copy in like jacket.
