1959002184Northampton MA: The Print Club of Philadelphia The Gehenna Press 1959. Limited First Edition. Wraps. Near Fine. No. 200 of 250 limitation signed and numbered in pencil by Leonard Baskin. This was Baskin's first venture into publishing and his jagged and stark illustrations amplify the fire and brimstone of Blake's both naive and worldweary verse that lilts at the same time it pierces and challenges. Printed on an Italian hand-made paper this is indeed a very handsome brochure and this copy is pristine internally with the faint remnants of tape top and bottom on both the front and rear of the wraps the only minor blight to the special production. <br/><br/> The Print Club of Philadelphia, The Gehenna Press paperback books

1960136893Los Angeles: Twentieth Century-Fox 1960. Archive of scripts and revision pages for 56 episodes of the hip private-eye detective television series "Peter Gunn." Copies belonging to screenwriter Lewis Reed with his holograph name to the front wrapper of each episode. <br/><br/>Included are screenplays for nearly half of the 114-episode run of the noir influenced television series starring the sophisticated sharp-dressed modern iazz-loving private eye Peter Gunn played by Craig Stevens. Probably the only television show that ever rivaled the best film noir of the big screen with minimalist dialogue and bleak open-ended conclusions that challenge even the best of television today. Creator Blake Edwards who later spawned both "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and the "Pink Panther" comedy film series starring Peter Sellers would use the success of "Peter Gunn" to jump start his film career. <br/><br/>Nominated for eight Primetime Emmy Awards and a Grammy Award. <br/><br/>Composer Henry Mancini also won an Emmy and two Grammy Awards for the show's well-loved theme song including the first Grammy ever awarded for Album of the Year. <br/><br/>Scripts in Very Good to Near Fine condition. Mimeograph on eye-rest green or white stock. Many episodes also contain pink blue white and yellow revision pages laid in at the rear. Twentieth Century-Fox unknown books
