Description:
New York: Rizzoli International Publications. Near Fine in Fine dj. 2008. First Edition. Hardcover. [a nice fresh as-new copy (had been in publisher's original shrinkwrap until opened to confirm publication info), with the only blemishes being a tiny dent in the bottom edge of the front cover and an extremely slight bump to the bottom front corner, the apparent results of some careless handling somewhere along the line (before it got into my hands); NOTE that what appears, in the scanned image accompanying this listing, to be a slight bend in the top edge of the front cover is a function of our scanner, and that the book itself has no such flaw)]. (color photographs) "Celebrating the quintessential modernism of Los Angeles, this gloriously oversize book pays homage to the seminal architecture of Southern California. Acclaimed architecture and design photographer Tim Street-Porter captures the best Modernist architecture of Los Angeles, from the seminal Neutra houses to the… Read More

Los Angeles: The Los Angeles Times. Fine in Fine dj. 1998. First Edition. Hardcover. 1883792231 . [nice clean copy, no discernible wear to either book or jacket]. (B&W photographs) "Los Angeles, it is often said, is a place that beckons those who seem driven to defy the ordinary. People who see possibility where others see roadblocks. People who bend -- and occasionally break -- the rules. People who aren't afraid to pursue their ambitions, no matter how far beyond the norms of the time they are. This is a collection of stories about such men and women." .

[a nice bright copy, some very minor smudging on the rear cover but no discernible wear]. (B&W photographs) 32-page article, illustrated with nine photographs, about "the love affair" between L. Frank Baum, author of the 'The Wizard of Oz,' and the Hotel del Coronado. For four of the five years between 1904 and 1908, Baum and his wife Maud "spent the winter months at the seashore resort across the bay from San Diego, [where] not only did [they] cherish the relaxation and mild climate afforded, but [where Baum also] found a vein of inspiration for his literary career. Indeed, he came to regard the surroundings at the peninsula of Coronado as a veritable replica of his own fairyland."

[light shelfwear, binding intact and square, a bit of age-toning and light spotting to edges of text block; the jacket is quite nice, with just a teeny bit of paper loss at a few corners, and a couple of old internal tape repairs to the upper spine corners].

This is not a novelization of the film, but rather a version of the original 1848 novel (itself the basis for the more famous Puccini opera) rendered "in popular form," allegedly "newly translated for this edition"; unlike many of the RL Film Editions, though, this one has NO film stills… Read More

[light overall wear, slight loss of paper spine covering at base, short closed tear in paper spine covering at top of spine (Collection "Sous le signe de Saturne") Series (B&W plates) An early and influential contribution to the "van Gogh was insane" school of debate. Although this idea was very much in the air in the decades following the artist's death in July 1890 -- floated most notably in 1906 by an early biographer, Julian Meier-Graefe, and subsequently by a German psychiatrist, Dr. Karl Jaspers (who in 1922 declared that van Gogh had suffered from schizophrenia) -- this volume, by two French doctors, was the first book to publish excerpts from the artist's medical records at the Saint-Paul asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, where he had been confined from May 1889 to May 1890 (during which time he had produced a notable series of paintings).

[light wear to cloth at spine ends, no other significant wear; the jacket has a bit of wear at extremities, but shows only a slight trace (at the spine) of the uneven grey/green color-shifting that's so common with this book]. (B&W photographs) SIGNED boldly on the ffep by the author; quite uncommon thus. "The actor who created [sic] the role of Resistance leader Victor Lazlo in movie history's best-known film, Casablanca, tells the no less dramatic and colorful story of his own life beginning with his charmed childhood among the aristocrats of pre-World War I Vienna, where amiability and elegance were the order of the day for the von Hernried family." Paul went on to a career in the theatre and later Hollywood stardom, although that was "all but destroyed by the blacklist, upon which he was wrongly placed." During the latter part of his life he found "a… Read More

(no dust jacket) [some wear and fading to cloth at base of spine, top corners bumped, light general wear, faint bookseller's rubber-stamped name on front pastedown (Bertrand Smith Acres of Books, Long Beach, Calif.)]. (B&W photographs) The second (of two) Lady Addle books, gently satirical faux memoirs in which the fictional Lady Blanche Addle (née Coot), daughter of the 13th Earl of Coot, gushingly details the utterly mundane details of her utterly uninteresting life as a member of the British upper crust, with the humor (and the book really is quite funny) arising from Lady A's obliviousness to her own pomposity. This volume is actually less a memoir than a compendium of Lady A's culinary and household tips, each one more ridiculous (and hilarious) than the next. (For all the fun-poking that's going on, though, there's a distinct undertone of stiff-upper-lip making-do-ness… Read More

"A richly comic novel of academic life. Its mock hero is Professor Stone; its setting, a small college in the west." The book was written, like you couldn't have guessed, by a college English Lit teacher. Kirkus Reviews noted the publisher's attempt to liken it to Kingsley Amis's "Lucky Jim," but while they thought the book's "satire [to be] amusing and intelligent," they felt that Kelly's protagonist came up short of Amis's in the exuberance department. The publishers did manage to line up one impressive jacket blurber (Wallace Stegner), but despite their efforts the book appears to have been both the beginning and the… Read More

Novel about "a wealthy New York interior decorator and antiquarian [who] is driving through Mississippi and Louisiana in a search for antiques" when he is caught in a storm and takes refuge in an old Southern mansion -- where he seems to have been expected. "This is the beginning of a novel in which the real and the unreal, the physical and the psychic, interweave with hauntingly irresistible impact on [the decorator]. He buys the plantation in order to return it to its former gracious loveliness, and as he works on its restoration, he finds himself journeying into the past more often, now entirely engrossed in a fairy-tale romance that has seized him."
