19597947New York: Henry Holt and Company 1959. 8vo 172pp. Photos illustrations. Signed with a generic inscription by Spring on the first blank page. Bound in red morocco with gilt lettering and design on spine and orange spine label. Samuel Weiser ticket at front front and inner flaps of jacket bound in as single leaf at rear. Some scuffing to endpapers else clean internally. <br /> <br /> An important mid-century Yoga manual written by a woman and student of Blanche DeVries to whom the book is dedicated Clara Spring 1899-1989. This is one of a few titles from the decade written by women which sold well and helped advance the emerging Eastern philosophy-adopting counterculture. Other pioneers of the era included Indra Devi Elisabeth Haich and Swami Sivananda Radha. Spring's inscription reads:<br /> <br /> <br /> "May Yoga always be your best friend as it has been mine!"<br /> <br /> Signed copies are scarce. . Henry Holt and Company unknown
19449851New York: Clarkstown Country Club; American Import Book Company; Vedic Research Press 1944. First editions. Sammelband of 3 publications 22x16cm 12pp; 5 47pp; and 24pp. Few plate illustrations in the middle pamphlet. Modern Indian binding of soft red leather tooled in gilt with brown spine label and gilt lettering metallic silk endpapers. Light rubbing along joints clean internally and nearly fine. Housed in a red slipcase. <br /> <br /> 3 scarce publications from the controversial man who became known as America's first Yogi Pierre Arnold Bernard 1875-1955. Bernard founded the Clarkstown Country Club at Nyack New York in 1918 and with his wife Blanche DeVries popularized Yoga and Eastern philosophy among the affluent population which spread from New York to other cities in the ensuing decades. The first pamphlet advertises a year long lecture course in yoga at the club which was free to members $100 membership fee $25 in yearly dues. Apparently to qualify for club membership you must have been "free white and twenty-one."<br /> <br /> The second publication contains 47 pages of blurbs from various figures from Nietzsche to Max Muller with MANY of them by Bernard on the Vedas and other aspects of Hinduism. A large section of the quotes read like a modern dust jacket with many in praise of Bernard and his teachings. One plate in this pamphlet shows Bernard in the midst of his famous "Kali Mudra" death trance demonstration where he would enter a deep meditative state of self hypnosis and allow physicians to pierce him slowly with needles showing no pain response. Seemingly a self-promoting publication from the time when Bernard had just opened Clarkstown. <br /> <br /> <br /> The third is the first of 2 journal issues of the never-formed International School of Vedic and Allied Research. The organization was founded for the purpose of promoting understanding of Eastern philosophy through publishing research scholarly articles and educational programming in America Britain and elsewhere. Bernard is not mentioned in the journal but he must have been closely associated with the organization's efforts in New York. <br /> <br /> We do not find the first publication listed in OCLC which cites just 2 holdings for the second. One or both issues of the journal are held by perhaps 20 institutions but we have not encountered one in the trade. <br /> <br /> From the library of Pierre Bernard and Blanche DeVries.<br /> <br /> .
