Description:
Santa Fe: Twin Palms, 1995. First Edition, limited to 5000 casebound copies. With over 85 circa 1895-1910 photographs, some tinted by Fred Holland Day, impressively reproduced on large plates. Folio, the publisher's original yellow cloth, the upper cover decorated in black with adaptation of the cover design by Aubrey Beardsley originally intended for 'Salomé', the spine lettered in black, in the original clear acetate jacket. 141, [1] pp. A very fine copy, essentially as mint. FIRST EDITION AND AN EXCELLENT COLLECTION OF PHOTOGRAPHS BY F. HOLLAND DAY ACCOMPANIED BY JAMES CRUMP'S BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY ON THE ARTIST/PUBLISHER. Fred Holland Day was the first person of influence in the United States to advocate that photography should be considered a fine art. At the turn of the century, his influence and reputation as a photographer rivaled that of Alfred Stieglitz. Day confounded and self-financed the publishing firm of Copeland and Day, which from 1893 through 1899 published about one… Read More

Description:
New York: Random House, 1954. First Edition, first printing. 8vo, publisher’s original maroon cloth, lettered and decorated in black, silver and pink on the spine and upper cover, in the original decorated dustjacket. (8), 437 pp. A very good copy, the dustjacket only lightly mellowed, old tape residue to the endleaves and a bookseller's stamp at the end of the volume. FIRST EDITION. This book won both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. Faulkner spent more than a decade and tremendous effort on it, and considered it his masterpiece when it was completed. An allegorical story of World War I, set in the trenches in France and dealing ostensibly with a mutiny in a French regiment, it was originally considered a sharp departure for Faulkner. It has since come to be recognized as one of his major works and an essential part of the Faulkner oeuvre.

New York: Harper and Row, 1980. Early printing. With full page color illustrations by Lobel throughout. Thin 4to, publisher’s original blue cloth, lettered in gilt on the spine. In the pictorial dustjacket. 40. A very good and attractive copy, bright and clean, minor wear and aging to the jacket and a bit of very light mellowing to the board edges. A Caldecott Medal winner, beautifully illustrated and charmingly told by the author. “A pig flying through marshmallow clouds to a marzipan moon? A camel pirouetting through the desert? A wolf who looks suspiciously like an apple tree - or is it the other way around? A bear in a frying-pan hat and paper-bag boots? “Where can a reader -child or adult - find such marvelous things but in a fable? Arnold Lobel, creator of Frog and Toad, has given us his own funny and true fables. Each with a fresh and unexpected moral. Each accompanied by an illustration of glowing color and rich detail.”-Publisher.

Description:
Paris: At the Printing Office and Stereotype Foundry of P. Didot and of F. Didot, 1800. First of the Edition, the Didot Stereotype edition, with the fine provenance of Henry Lee of the important Boston family.

One of Gay's best known works, the fables are not moral tales: "for a Fable he gives now and then a Tale or an abstracted Allegory; and from some, by whatever name they may be called, it will be difficult to extract any moral principle. They are, however, told with liveliness; the versification is smooth; and the diction, though now and then a little constrained by the measure of the rhyme, is generally happy."

The binding attractive and sound, hinges fine and firm, the plates bright and pleasing. A VERY PLEASING COPY AND QUITE SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. These illustrations represent, in our opinion, Detmold's very best work. Their grace and sensitivity reflect a certain Eastern sensibility. The artist’s powers in the delicate communication of nature’s spirit are exemplified by these wonderful paintings, rich with the wide variety of the colours in the spectrum.

Much work has been carried out to discover which parts of Freudian theory are verifiable and which insupportable by experiment. In this book Dr. Kline surveys this vast body of work. He takes, one by one, the central postulates of Freudian psychology and discusses the experiments which have been performed to test them. He scrutinises each test, examines its methodology and its findings and weighs up its value.”-Publisher.

But what brings one back to his paintings again and again is the loving family feeling captures in everyday moments in the home and outdoors on the landscape he loved.”- Publisher
