Inscribed to Dos Passos's bibliographer

DOS PASSOS, John. [The USA Trilogy]. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company. 1946.

Three volumes, 8vo. Original cream cloth boards; gilt titled spines with brown morocco labels; boards with bevelled edges; illustrated endpapers; top edges gilt; black and white illustrations within the text by Reginald Marsh, pages untrimmed and partially unopened; acetate dust jackets and original dark red slipcase with title label in green and black; slipcase recently repaired; dust jacket panels slightly toned but text body internally fine; overall a near fine set; authorial inscription to front free endpaper of vol. 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.

Perfect
Color: Blue, Size: Square
Just what I needed. The size is perfect as I didn’t want anything too large to place my watches and other accessories inside near the corner of my desk. Its size is essentially 7x7, and the design is sleek compared to other organizer holders. I got the color in blue and it looks stunning with the rest of my setup. I’m unsure about other reviewers, but mine came safely and the leather walls are decently thick, so it’s not too flimsy when buttoned together which holds very securely. There are hole spaces at the bottom corners once assembled, so if you have super small items such as beads or really small jewelry, they could potentially fall out, but most of my items are large enough that won’t be of concern. If you have a wire charger near by, the holes could be used to charge your smartphone inside, which has its own practical usage. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on a lookout for a sleek but compact organizer holder, and I personally will consider getting another one in the future for myself for other household belongings.

Neat and Square
Color: Black, Size: Square
This turned out to be durable and looks good on my valet table. The difference in the way it snaps to the sides, keeps the corners square and looks better than the other models that force the corners to extend outward.

Color: Brown, Size: Rectangle
I like the tray a lot. Quality is very good. Color (Brown) is attractive. Size is perfect for my nightstand. It holds phone, remote, eyeglasses, & phone. I threaded my phone charging cord through a corner of the tray. But it slides too easily off of the nightstand. I'm going to try to find something to stop it from sliding that will stick to the underside of the tray without harming the wood surface on my cherry nightstand.
