Potash and Perlmutter: Their CoPartnership Ventures and Adventures is a novel written by Montague Glass. The book is a humorous and satirical take on the business world of the early 20th century. The story follows the exploits of two Jewish businessmen, Abe Potash and Morris Perlmutter, as they navigate the ups and downs of running their own company. The book is filled with witty dialogue, clever wordplay, and humorous situations that poke fun at the foibles of human nature. The characters of Potash and Perlmutter are portrayed as shrewd businessmen who are always looking for a way to turn a profit, but who also have a strong sense of community and loyalty to their fellow Jews. The book is a classic of Jewish-American literature and is still widely read today for its humor, insight, and historical perspective.1909. Illustrated. The book begins: No, siree, sir, Abe Potash exclaimed as he drew a check to the order of his attorney for a hundred and fifty dollars, I would positively go it alone from now on till I die, Noblestone. I got my stomach full with Pincus Vesell already, and if Andrew Carnegie would come to me and tell me he wants to go with me as partners together in the cloak and suit business, I would say No, so sick and tired of partners I am. For the twentieth time he examined the dissolution agreement which had ended the firm of Vesell and Potash, and then he sighed heavily and placed the document in his breast pocket.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
