In Yiddish. 30, (2) pages. Includes 7 dali-esque illustrations by Kotler. 211 x 157 mm. Signed, dated (1934) inscription by the author to Aaron Glanz Leyels (Aron, Arn Glantz Leieles) the Yiddish poet, novelist, journalist, translator, editor (5 March 1889 Wloclawk, Poland - 30 December 1966 New York).

He thrived primarily as an illustrator and puppeteer, teaming up with Zuny Maud, an equally multi-talented fellow Bohemian, to create a cult puppet theater in 1925. Kotler was driving to Hollywood hoping to make a puppet movie when he died in a car crash in 1935. His funeral brought 10, 000 people onto the streets of New York. Author Herman Gold was another extraordinary Lower East Side character, described by memoirist Reuben Iceland as "the weaver of the weirdest, wildest word plays. " In other words, Gold s stories and Kotler s artwork are the perfect match" (Mazower, 2019) . "Andere arbetn fun dem zelbikn shrayber" (Other works by the same author) on page 32.
