The Songwriting Racket! (And How To Beat It)

  • North Palm Springs: Cherokee Publishing Company, [1978]
By [WEIR, William J. and Uno Goddard]
North Palm Springs: Cherokee Publishing Company, [1978]. First Edition. First printing. Limited to 1000 copies. Quarto (28cm). Original glossy card wrappers; 187pp. Mild cover rubbing and soil; contents clean, tight and unmarked; Very Good or better.

A guide to the music publishing industry by two professed "insiders;" the book appears to have been marketed by mail, through advertisements in trade publications. Whether the $100 cover price is a mis-print, a gag, or the actual publisher's price is beyond us to determine. Apparently rare, with no copies traced in commerce and only two catalogued holdings in OCLC.
