"Following his (Belli's) admission to the California bar, his first job was posing as a hobo for the Works Progress Administration and riding the rails to observe the Depression's impact on the country's vagrant population. His first major legal victory came shortly after graduation, in a personal injury lawsuit representing an injured cable car gripman. Over insurance lawyers' objections, Belli brought a model of a cable car intersection, and the gear box and chain involved in the accident, to demonstrate to jurors exactly what had happened.

Lavender cloth spine with black lettering and tan paper over boards, pictorial dust jacket. 320pp. Frontispiece, illustrations, pictorial endpapers. Near fine/very good. Mild jacket edgewear. Tight and nice first edition of this unusual look at Japan's jurisprudence system by the colorful and controversial defense attorney (1907-96) whose lengthy list of celebrity clients included Jack Ruby, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Mae West, Tony Curtis, Muhammad Ali, The Rolling Stones -- and actor Errol Flynn, who provides the oddball foreword to this book. Belli boldly inscribes and signs the front flyleaf in blue ballpoint "To Luke Carroll / with all good wishes / Melvin Belli / Indianapolis, June 8, 1960." An illustration near page 65 shows a trenchcoat-clad Westerner standing between two Japanese women in front of a pagoda and is captioned "Luke Carroll, of the New York Herald Tribune, poses between two girls dressed as they have been for centuries." (Luke P. Carroll, 1916-82, served as managing editor of "The New York Herald Tribune" and "Chicago's American" before becoming editor of "Chicago Today" in 1968.).
