192917091106London: Hodder and Stoughton Limited 1929. Hardcover. Near fine/very good . Rackham Arthur. Octavo size 123 pp. With Ex-Libris of J.M. Barrie which apparently is not unique there being one other copy online as of this writing with the same plate. The ink looks genuine but the signatures are the same; interestingly the library bookplates are tipped onto different pages. We can come up with several scenarios for the existence of these bookplates but since the bibliographies are silent on it we cannot state anything with certitude. Mary Clarissa "May" Byron 1861-1936 was an author in her own right but was best known for her abridgements of J.M. Barrie's works for children. This work with six full-colour plates and fifteen black and white illustrations all by Arthur Rackham was an excellent gift for young readers. <br/><br/>Arthur Rackham 1867-1939 born into a "typical middle-class Victorian family" showed an aptitude for drawing from an early age especially with "fantastic" subjects. In the autumn of 1884 he enrolled in the Lambeth School for Art; upon graduation he began working on his illustrations part-time submitting them to various periodicals and publishers while working as a clerk. Success found him in 1905 with the publication of his "Rip Van Winkle" which "decisively established Rackham as the leading decorative illustrator of the Edwardian period". His work remained popular and highly sought for decades through his final illustrated book "The Wind in the Willows" completed just a year before his death in 1939. N.B. above quotes from Derek Hudson "Arthur Rackham His Life and Work". However important Rip Van Winkle and The Wind in the Willows are it is perhaps for his depictions of Peter Pan that Rackham remains most remembered and this book geared towards children is a delight and a joy.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Bound in green cloth with dark green lettering on the front and spine dark green vignette of Peter Pan after the illustration on the dust jacket front endpapers only have half-page map in black and white of "Peter Pan's Map of Kensington Gardens" the verso of the front free endpaper has the bookplate of J.

1974131516New York: Chelsea Theater Center 1974. Original script for the 1974 play. Based on the 1962 short story by Isaac Bashevis Singer and adapted by him and playwright Leah Napolin for the stage the play premiered October 25 1975 at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre and ran for a total of 223 performances. Tovah Feldshuh was nominated for a Tony for her portrayal of the title role. <br/><br/>Faithful to the original story the play follows a young woman who begins living as a man named Anshel after her father dies in order to continue studying the Torah in defiance of Jewish tradition. An early exploration of transgender identity as Anshel describes himself as "neither one sex nor the other" and having "the soul of a man in the body of a woman." Yentl's choice to live as Anshel even after being discovered strongly contrasts with the text of the better known Barbra Streisand musical film purportedly despised by Singer where the transgender aspect of the narrative is replaced by a more heteronormative romance.<br/><br/>Blue studio wrappers. Title page present dated 1974 with credits for novelist Singer and playwright Napolin. 155 leaves mimeograph duplication. Pages Very Good plus wrapper Very Good bound with two gold brads.
