The Memoirs of Josephine Mutzenbacher, Brandon Books
Volume one
From Wikipedia:
Josephine Mutzenbacher or The Story of a Viennese Whore, as Told by Herself (German: Josefine Mutzenbacher oder Die Geschichte einer Wienerischen Dirne von ihr selbst erzählt) is an erotic novel first published anonymously in Vienna, Austria, in 1906. The novel is famous in the German-speaking world, having been in print in both German and English for over 100 years and sold over 3 million copies, becoming an erotic bestseller.
Although no author claimed responsibility for the work, it was originally attributed to either Felix Salten or Arthur Schnitzler by the librarians at the University of Vienna. Today, critics, scholars, academics and the Austrian Government designate Salten as the sole author of the “pornographic classic”.
This edition was published in 1972 by Brandon Books, a subsidiary of Parliament News, Inc. Volume one contains an English translation of the original novel, while volume two contains a translation of a sequel written by a different author, originally titled Meine 365 Liebhaber.
The title combines Makart with oblique Bookman. The author attribution, as well as the volume number, publisher name, serial number and price, use Trade Gothic. The other credits use italic Century Expanded.

Makart’s U is slightly problematic for Dutch readers: with the interrupted stem, it might be mistaken for an IJ.
