Description:
Moscow: Goznak, 1969. Mavrina, T[atyana]. Oblong octavo. (40)pp. Mavrina's illustrations for this lush Cyrillic alphabet are at once delightfully couched in folklore and technically skilled in color and composition. The occasional letter receives a double-page spread, or highlight in metallic ink, and all suggest the drama and abundance of a stage production of the frog prince, the fire-bird, and other familiar stories. In 1976 Mavrina received the Hans Christian Andersen Award, and remains the only Russian to do so. Bound in red wrappers with a gold paper jacket, both of which reflect motifs from the text. Mild general edgewear, some nicks to jacket, faint sunning to covers. Very good.

Signed by Anderson after the title page, and by the designer and printer, James Engelbart, at the colophon. Anderson's nine woodcuts of chickens appear opposite nine original fables.

The name of the press has been misspelt on the title page. Bound in full green silk with a woodcut inset to upper cover. Handsomely housed in a matching drop-back box lined in paper decorated with a repeating pattern of woodcut chicks, and protected in a four-flap card chemise. Unrecorded in OCLC.

Description:
(Bern, Switzerland, 1974. Scapa (a.k.a. Ted Schaap). Fifteen original illustrations of perhaps gouache, each on a separate sheet of heavy paper. Mainly concerned with the meteoric rise of computing, and particularly that of IBM, Schaap's illustrations depict with snide humor the new computer worker, the techno-bureaucrat, at work pinning (literally) IBM all over the globe, sitting in traffic, dictating to his secretary the way he might write computer code, and still yet relying on paper. The illustrations apparently never reached publication, though their thematic link to the 1974 portfolio Schaap produced through his publishing firm, Benteli, suggests that Schaap was engaged in some sort of cohesive project on IBM and computing. It is possible that he had IBM in mind as the ultimate outlet for the work—he contributed freelance designs to Swatch, among other corporations—though it is unclear whether the company would have been game for Schaap's tongue-in-cheek style.
