The French Revolution (in 2 vols)
The French Revolution (in 2 vols)
Carlyle, Thomas. Edmund J. Sullivan (illustrator)
- Publisher: Chapman and Hall
London: Chapman and Hall, 1910. First Thus. Large paper copy, limited to 150 sets, signed by the artist, this being 83. Two quarto volumes (11 x 7 1/8 in; 282 x 181 mm). Original quarter vellum over natural linen boards. Front cover and spine decoratively stamped and lettered in gilt. Top edge gilt, others uncut. Collating xii, [2], 418; xi, [1, blank], 484, with thirty-three black and white plates and 124 black and white text illustrations. A very Fine set in the original pale blue dust jackets, printed in red."Of the three great political upheavals which have altered the face of the world - the American, French and Russian Revolutions - only the French Revolution has stimulated literary masterpieces which, in turn, have made their impact, direct and indirect, upon millions of readers... They are Carlyle's book and ... Michelet's... Carlyle wrote his French Revolution as a secular 'tract for the times' and as a warning for his compatriots of the frightful consequences of materialism, utilitarianism, and democracy... The book at once captured the English-speaking world, and has, outside France, moulded the popular conception of the French Revolution down to the present day" (PMM).Edmund Joseph Sullivan (1869-1933) was a British book illustrator who worked in a style which merged the British tradition of illustration from the 1860s with aspects of Art Nouveau. He was only 20 years old when he began contributing to various magazines including the Daily Chronicle, The Daily Graphic, The Pall Mall Gazette and Punch magazine. He soon graduated to the more prestigious role of book illustrator. Sullivan's style is comparable to that of Aubrey Beardsley, but is more romantic, without Beardley's acerbic attitude. PMM 304 (for the true first edition).

The body has always been both her subject and medium. Exploring her physical and mental limits in works that ritualize the simple actions of everyday life, she has withstood pain, exhaustion, and danger in her quest for emotional and spiritual transformation. From 1975â??88, Abramovic and the German artist Ulay performed together, dealing with relations of duality. Abramovic returned to solo performances in 1989. She was awarded the Golden Lion for Best Artist at the 1997 Venice Biennale for the video installation and performance "Balkan Baroque." In 2008 she was decorated with the Austrian Commander Cross for her contribution to Art History. In 2013, the French Minister of Culture accepted her as an Officer to the Order of Arts and Letters. In addition to these and other awards, Abramovic also holds multiple honorary doctorates from institutions around the world. WALK THROUGH WALLS was published on October 25, 2016. ISBN: 978-1101-9050-43. BS13732.

The Bridge
CRANE, Hart (1899 to 1932); [Walker Evans, illustrates]
- Publisher: Horace Liveright
New York: Horace Liveright, 1930. First Trade Edition. Hardcover. Fine. First Printing (second edition overall, following the Holland paper issue published in Paris) of this "landmark achievement in the genre of the modern long poem." (Literary Encyclopedia) Squarish demy 8vo (219 x 154mm): [2],82pp, with frontispiece photograph of Brooklyn Bridge by Walker Evans. Publisher's fine bead dark blue cloth, upper cover and spine lettered in gilt, fore- and bottom edges rough-trimmed, title page in red and black. A fine copy, wanting the dust jacket. Modern Movement 64 ("masterpiece of neo-romanticism"). Schwartz & Schweik A3.1. First published in limited format, in Paris, by Harry Crosby's Black Sun Press, in February, 1930, some six weeks before this Liveright issue with Crane's many corrections and alterations (especially with respect to "Cape Hatteras"), which was intended as the trade edition. Crosby's suicide in December 1929, while publication was still being arranged, was a sad portent of Crane's own tragic end two years later, when he leapt into the Gulf of Mexico from a ship bringing him back from Cuba to the United States. Walker Evans, whose photographs illustrate both editions, was then unknown. Crane began this attempt to investigate "the myth of America" with Ave Maria, "set aboard Columbus's ship as he returns to Spain after discovering America. Later sections dealt with aspects of American history, myth, and folklore, moving into the modern age with its attendant technological and scientific advances. . . . while celebrating the symbols of man's attempt to spiritually transcend the bounds of mortal existence, Crane also strives to deal with the limitations of progress."

A fine copy in the publisher's matching slip-case.Harold Hart Crane (1899-1932) was an American poet. Finding both inspiration and provocation in the poetry of T. S. Eliot, Crane wrote modernist poetry that was difficult, highly stylized, and ambitious in its scope. In his most ambitious work, The Bridge, Crane sought to write an epic poem, in the vein of The Waste Land, that expressed a more optimistic view of modern, urban culture than the one that he found in Eliot's work. In the years following his suicide at the age of thirty-two, Crane has been hailed by playwrights, poets, and literary critics alike (including Robert Lowell, Derek Walcott, Tennessee Williams, and Harold Bloom), as being one of the most influential poets of his generation.Richard Benson (born 1943) is a photographer, printer and educator who utilizes photographic processing techniques of the past and present. Benson has a broad range of interests in the photographic print-silver, platinum, palladium, and ink. Working in these different mediums, sometimes learning forgotten crafts and sometimes creating new ones, he has become convinced that ink and the modern photo offset press possess a potential for photographic rendition beyond anything else previously known. In recent years he has been working on the relationship between the computer and traditional photographic imagery, and has been applying the lessons from this in the production of long run offset books of work by different photographers, in both black and white and color.Limited Editions Club Bibliography, 520.

Paris,|New-York: AMIEL Léon, 1966. Fine. AMIEL Léon, Paris, New-York 1966, 36x49.5cm, une feuille. - Original lithograph in colors, one of the 15 proofs printed on Imperial Japan paper and reserved for the artist and his collaborators, one draw with 20 other japan and 250 Arches paper. unsigned Event, as all races in the series except the frontispiece. Superb test of Japan made especially for The Story of Exodus, published in 1966, Chagall painted the 24 lithographs inset printed by Mourlot. Fernand Mourlot, undoubtedly the best artisan lithographer of the twentieth century, was naturally the printer and the friend of the greatest artists of his time. ""Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Miró, Braque, Dubuffet, Léger, Giacometti ... have enriched their own expressions and contemporary art a new area of ??research. With Mourlot, and thanks to him, lithography has acquired both personality and future. "" (Pierre Cabanne, in fifty years of lithography). Already printer of the two volumes of the Bible illustrated by Chagall, Mourlot contributed to the formation of the artist in the art of lithography in the 1950s it was at this time that Chagall indeed begins to attend workshop Mourlot to learn the lithographic processes and he became friends with the artisans of printing, including Charles Sorlier. So is this the top of his game as Chagall realizes this Exodus story that coincides with the completion of his immense lithographic and pictorial work on the Bible began in 1930 at the initiative of Ambroise Vollard. This decorative cycle entitled Biblical Message T will also behind the creation of the Marc Chagall Museum, originally the National Museum of Biblical Message Marc - Chagall. Extremely rare first test printed on Japan, the best paper and the best for color prints. - [FRENCH VERSION FOLLOWS] Lithographie originale en couleur, une des 15 épreuves imprimées sur papier japon impérial et réservées à l'artiste et à ses collaborateurs, seul tirage avec 20 autres japon et 250 Arches. Epreuve non signée, comme toutes les épreuves de cette série, hormis le frontispice. Superbe épreuve sur Japon réalisée spécialement pour The Story of Exodus paru en 1966, dont Chagall réalisa les 24 lithographies hors-texte imprimés par Mourlot. Fernand Mourlot, incontestablement le meilleur artisan lithographe du XXeme siècle, fut naturellement l'imprimeur et l'ami des plus grands artistes de son temps. ""Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Miró, Braque, Dubuffet, Léger, Giacometti...ont enrichi leurs expressions propres et l'art contemporain d'un domaine de recherches nouveau. Avec Mourlot, et grâce à lui, la lithographie a acquis à la fois une personnalité et un avenir."" (Pierre Cabanne, in Cinquante années de lithographie). Déjà imprimeur des deux volumes de la Bible illustrée par Chagall, Mourlot contribua à la formation de l'artiste à l'art de la lithographie dans les années 1950. C'est à cette époque que Chagall commence en effet à fréquenter l'atelier de Mourlot afin d'apprendre les procédés lithographiques et qu'il se lie d'amitié avec les artisans de l'imprimerie, notamment Charles Sorlier. Ainsi est-ce au sommet de son art que Chagall réalise cette histoire de l'Exode qui coincide avec l'achèvement de son immense travail lithographique et pictural sur la Bible entamé en 1930 à l'initiative d'Ambroise Vollard. Ce Cycle décoratif intitulé Le Message Biblique sera d'ailleurs à l'origine de la création du Musée Marc Chagall, originellement Musée national du message biblique Marc-Chagall. Rarissime épreuve originale imprimée sur Japon, le plus beau papier et le meilleur pour les gravures en couleur.

Mila 18.
Mila 18.
Uris, Leon
- Publisher: Doubleday & Company
Garden City, NY: Doubleday & Company, 1961. First edition of Uris' classic novel about the Warsaw Uprising. Octavo, original cloth. Signed by the author on the front free endpaper, "Shalom Leon Uris." Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Jacket drawing by Harlan Krakowitz. Jacket design by Al Nagy. Mila 18 is a novel by Leon Uris set in German-occupied Warsaw, Poland, before and during World War II. Mila 18 debuted at #7 on The New York Times Best Seller List (the second-highest debut of any Uris novel ever, bested only by the #6 debut of Trinity in 1976) and peaked at #2 in August 1961.[1] Leon Uris's work, based on real events, covers the Nazi occupation of Poland and the atrocities of systematically dehumanising and eliminating the Jewish people of Poland. The name "Mila 18" is taken from the headquarters bunker of Jewish resistance fighters underneath the building at ulica Mila 18 (18 Mila Street, in English, 18 Pleasant Street). (See Mila 18.) The term ghetto takes on a clearer meaning as the courageous Jewish leaders fight a losing battle against not only the Nazis and their henchmen, but also profiteers and collaborators among themselves. Eventually, as the ghetto is reduced to rubble, a few courageous individuals with few weapons and no outside help assume command of ghetto defense, form a makeshift army and make a stand.

Etiquette for Gentlemen, or short rules and reflections for conduct in society. By a Gentleman
a Gentleman; [Sinclair, Thomas S. (lithographer)]
- Publisher: Lindsay and Blakiston
Philadelphia, [PA]: Lindsay and Blakiston, 1853. Duodecimo (13 x 9 cm.), 224 pages. Chromolithograph second title page: Chesterfieldian Library: Etiquette for Gentleman, signed in the print, "T. Sinclair, Lith., Phila." Date estimate from date of companion publication, and firm name of the lithographer (starting 1853, Sinclair operated as "Thomas Sinclair & Co.". Stated second edition (see page 5). An etiquette manual, issued amidst a flood of such publications. The manual covers the standard subjects: presentations, salutations, letter writing, visits, dinners, dances, servants, travelling (sic), and more. Also includes an interesting section on "Americanisms". On class in America, the author states "we think that there is far more exclusiveness in this country, than there is in that even of England - far more than there is in France..." and "we know from observation, that there are among the respectable, in any city of the United States, at least ten distinct ranks." And there is of course geographical diversity. He states, "the test of standing in Boston, is literary eminence; in New York, wealth; and in Philadelphia, purity of blood" (from the preface). The color frontispiece is notable. "Thomas Sinclair, born in the Orkney Islands... was one of the premier Philadelphia lithographers of the 19th-century, particularly in the field of chromolithography" (librarycompany.org). ~ Blind-decorated brown cloth boards, gilt-titled spine. The chromo second title has an abrasion and stain from removal of old adhesive tape repair (with some small loss to the print). Very pale early ownership inscription and separate ink note to free front endpaper; early ink prices to endpapers; generally very good. Ex-libris "Vermont Historical Society" (with discard indication), and noted that it came to them as part of the library of Ralph W. Putnam (see page 3). [OCLC records twenty-four copies under various listings due to variation in dating this title].

A collection of works looking at the politics, reports, and trades in Scotland between the years 1824 and 1899. With the publishers for all the works being: D. Hill; Park; M'Cosh, Park, & Dewars; Dundee Advertiser Office; James Skinner & Company; Winter, Duncan & Co; William Brown Containing; 'Report by the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Manufactures for Forfarshire; of the Proceedings of the Directors for the Year, From 21st April 1823, to 1st.

'Rules and Regulations of the Dundee Wilton Waver Lodge', published by William Brown in 1832. With a folding table. This shows an interesting view on how Scotland was developing as a country in the nineteenth century. It suddenly became a leader in modern industry, which happened quite unexpectedly. The population of the country grew rapidly in this century, going from around 1.6 million in the 1801 census, to 4.4 million in the 1901 census. The economy began to industrialise after being long based on agriculture, with the leading industry being the spinning and weaving of cotton, and also coal mining. Because of this, there was a growing emphasis on public health and welfare, due to the rapid housing being built that became more cramped, as the housing and provision for public health did not keep up pace with the growing population. The living conditions in some of the cities were notoriously bad, with a high infant mortality rate, and growing rates of tuberculosis. These pamphlets show the interested of Scottish politics during these years, and show how they were trying to adapt the country to the industrial revolution. In a quarter cloth binding with marbled paper to the boards. Externally, smart. Light rubbing to the boards and spine. Minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. Prior owner's ink inscription to the recto and verso of the front endpaper. Internally, generally firmly bound. Pages are lightly age-toned and clean. The occasional prior owner's ink inscription to some of the title pages. Some pages are uncut to the fore edge. Some loss to the top edge of pages 11-14 of 'An Act to Reorganise the Educational Endowments of Scotland [18th August 1882].'. The occasional ink annotation to the margins. Very Good

Outer Gateways (Inscribed by Kenneth Grant to his friend Richard Harting)
Outer Gateways (Inscribed by Kenneth Grant to his friend Richard Harting)
Grant, Kenneth
- Publisher: Skoob Books
London: Skoob Books, 1994. First Edition. Hardcover. Octavo. Inscribed by Kenneth Grant: "To my friend Richard Harting with evergreen greetings from Kenneth Grant, Spring 1994 e.v." Black cloth with silver spine titles. 264 pages. Black and white plates. A fine copy in like dust jacket. The Typhonian Tradition discussed in this book matured and declined before even the monumental phase of the earliest civilizations. This is witnessed by fragments of magical and mystical lore once current in Egypt and the Far East. The Tradition lingered on and became corrupt with passing epochs and the gradual attrition of an ages-old lineage of Initiates. Harassment by warring factions seeking temporal power at the expense of intemporal space-transcending Knowledge stifled the spark and fouled the springs of ancient Wisdom. It reappeared fitfully over the centuries in obscure alchemical writings in the West, and in Oriental occult tantras, and traces of it proved sufficient to permit of its powerful resurgence. The earliest themes of Grant's series of trilogies are here related, intensified and developed. The unearthly provenance of such disturbing messages as The necronomicon is reaffirmed, leading to a cognate treatment of Aleister Crowley's reception of The Book of the Law and a reinterpretation of that book's implications in the light of the Typhonian Tradition. The volume concludes with a haunting transmission - Wisdom of S'lba - received in new Isis Lodge under circumstances outside usually accepted magical procedures, and subsequently translated into terrestrial language. Richard Harting was born in England and grew up with, and was a close friend of, Kenneth Grant. Harting moved to the United States in the 1950s. They reconnected at some point which resulted in a lengthy correspondence and a sharing of books.

[Manuscript]: Woodstock Nation
[Manuscript]: Woodstock Nation
HOFFMAN, Abbie
Unbound. Very Good. Original photomechanically reproduced typescript. 196 quarto and folio sheets printed mostly rectos only, with intermittent page numbering and several groupings of pages stapled or paper-clipped together, and with slips of paper containing edits taped to occasional sheets. The pages consist of photomechanically reproduced copies of Hoffman's edited typescript pages submitted to the publisher (we suspect in parts) with the editor's original pencil and ink edits to the copied pages as well as proofreader's markings in blue pencil.The manuscript is accompanied by a tattered light blue envelope ("John C. Meyer & Son Inc. Typographers") with "Woodstock Nation Manuscript" written large in black marker on the front and underneath it in smaller letters "Concert Hall," which was the name of the company that edited and designed the book, as well as having produced the Woodstock Festival program. Overall near fine with some scattered creasing and typical nicks and tears to the edges, most noticeable on the folios sheets.The suitably chaotic typescript of Abbie Hoffman's *Woodstock Nation*, a rambling, stream of consciousness-style recounting of the era-defining 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival, where Hoffman famously interrupted The Who's performance while high on an LSD trip, to rant about the imprisonment of White Panther Party leader, John Sinclair, before being knocked down by an angry Pete Townshend. Hoffman feverishly wrote the book in the month between the end of the Woodstock Festival and the beginning of his trial as a member of the Chicago Eight, charged with inciting a riot at the 1968 Democratic National Convention.The manuscript show hundreds of changes and corrections in the text made by Hoffman, including several variations of a chapter title, an exorcised pseudonymous author citation ("Agent 12 - Yippie Conspirator"), and evidence of how several of his previously published articles were integrated into the text. The editors' handwritten notations are numerous with corrections throughout, including additions to the end of several chapters, and instructions to the designer for innovative ways to display the text and photo placement. There are also a few additional pages left for a planned promotional poster, a publisher's advertising card, and the list of photo credits. Unknown is who contributed a few small but significant additions to the text in blue pencil at the end of a few chapters. While there is some evidence they could be in Hoffman's hand, we could not definitively prove who wrote the hastily produced scrawl (although we are comfortable in our assertion that drugs were likely involved).While this a contemporary copy of Hoffman's original edited draft used by the book's editors, we have been unable to turn up evidence or reference to any other copies, leading us to believe that this is the only extent copy that survives, despite their being institutionally housed archives of Hoffman's papers at the University of Connecticut, New York Public Library, and the recent acquisition by the University of Texas at Austin. It is certainly possible that the editors of the book compiled the manuscript from the various sources that Hoffman sent along and then discarded the piecemeal submissions.With a letter of provenance from the wife of Michael Forman, who worked at Concert Hall Publications as the editor of the Program of the Woodstock Music and Arts Festival, and who served as a coeditor on *Woodstock Nation*. Hoffman gifted the manuscript to her on one of his visit as a token of his friendship.A significant and likely unique manuscript of Hoffman's second book, written in the brief period between two of the most important events of his eventful life.
