(O'CONNOR, FLANNERY), The Spectrum, 1945.Milledgeville: Georgia State College for Women, (1945). First Edition. O'Connor's senior yearbook, for which she served as feature editor and contributed the illustrated endpapers and the cartoons that appear throughout the volume. She is also listed and/or pictured as editor of The Corinthian; art editor of The Colonnade, the campus newspaper; feature editor of The Spectrum; as a member of "Who's Who;" the Newman Club (for Catholic students); the International Relations Club; the Twon Girls' Club, to foster cooperation and sociability between residents and local girls; and as being on the "Y" Cabinet. This copy belonged to a sophomore, and there are many inscriptions to her throughout, including a half dozen written over O'Connor's endpapers. Professional restoration to joints; still about near fine. O'Connor worked on the yearbook prior to her senior year, but this is the one to which she contributed the most, primarily in terms of her artwork; her work as "feature editor" of the yearbook is unspecified. A very early appearance in print of anything by the author of Wise Blood and A Good Man is Hard to Find -- two of the books that helped define modern Southern literature in the postwar era.
