Folks from Dixie

Dunbar, Paul Laurence, 1872-1906 · 1922 · New York : Dodd, Mead · 2 pictures

Folks from Dixie is a 1922 short-story collection by Paul Laurence Dunbar, published in New York by Dodd, Mead, with stories of African American life in the American South aimed at a general reading public. Its pictures are pen-and-ink drawings in a restrained, sketchy line, with a printed caption set below the image; a designer could take from them the vignette-within-page layout and the loose hand-drawn figure style.
