194429416Big Sur: California Nov. 22 1944. An autograph note "For Dr. E. F. Chamberlin / To celebrate the removal of a tooth. Good wishes! / Henry Miller / 11/22/1944 Approx 4.5 by 4.5 inches written on cream paper in gray/black ink. Now handsomely matted and glazed in a fine gilded frame. In very fine condition and handsomely presented. AN SIGNED AND DATED AUTOGRAPH PRESENTED BY AMERICAN AUTHOR HENRY MILLER. This note was written early on during his time living in Big Sur California after returning to the United States from the expatriate days in Paris and Greece. His most famous works the "Tropic" books were being published in France but continued to be banned in America even as Miller worked on the Rosy Crucifixion trilogy.<br> Miller was best known for breaking existing literary forms and creating a new kind of "autobiographical novel" thick with social commentary explicit language and sex and heavily reliant on stream-of-conscious and free expression. His most famous works of this kind Tropic of Cancer Black Spring Tropic of Capricorn and The Rosy Crucifixion trilogy would all remain banned in the United States until 1961! California unknown
196534215New York: Grove Press 1965. First printing of the first Grove edition the first edition printed in America and the first edition for general circulation. The three books in the trilogy were initially banned in the United States and thus published only in France and Japan in very small numbers. Provenance of Library of Congress Manuscript Historian Grover Batts. 8vo publisher's original black cloth the spines and upper cover with gilt lettering within a gilt frame that one the upper covers being a facsimile of Miller's signature in the original white paper jackets printed in three contrasting colours and in the original slipcase with large printed paper label. 506; 640; 316 pp. A very fine set the books are without flaw the jackets near pristine but for a little toning on the spines which is essentially unavoidable due to the white paper used SEXUS also with very minor wear at the tips of the jacket. The slipcase is a little rubbed and mellowed and has a small abrasion on the printed label. QUITE SCARCE FIRST PRINTING OF ALL THREE TITLES in Miller's fictionalized account of his six-years living in Brooklyn the period where he fell for his second wife June. It also describes his struggles to become a writer and the events leading up to his departure for Paris in 1928.<br> All three books in the trilogy were initially banned in the United States as pornographic thus there was no American publication prior to the U.S. Supreme Court's 1964 decision that the also-banned Tropic of Cancer was a work of literature and therefore should no longer be banned. In spite of no longer being accused of peddling porn Miller had other concerns about an American edition. He believed that his first wife Beatrice who is portrayed in the books as "Maude" would be able to sue. He relented however and in 1965 THE ROSY CRUCIFIXION volumes were holding the top spots along with two other recently unbanned works on the Publishers Weekly bestseller list. Grove Press hardcover

FIRST EDITION OF A FINE PRODUCTION FEATURING REPRODUCED ARTWORK BY HENRY MILLER. AND A RARE EXAMPLE INSCRIBED TO A CLOSE ASSOCIATE. The recipient is Oliver Evans who Miller claims in the inscription to envy for knowledge of literature and his love of the Orient. Miller had known Evans since 1966. Evans was also a close friend of Tennessee Williams and had traveled to Japan with Williams where the two met Yukio Mishima. Around the time this book was inscribed Evans had loaned Miller his copy of SUN & STEEL. Both Evans and Miller were shocked and saddened by Mishima's dramatic ritual suicide roughly eight months later.<br> Evans was also an associate of Anais Nin and a number of letters between them are now in the Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections at Northwestern. Miller and Nin's tumultuous affair is well known.<br> Miller's fame as an author might overshadow his reputation as an artist but it is estimated that Miller painted 2000 watercolors during his life and that 50 or more major collections of Miller's paintings exist. He was a close friend of the French painter Grégoire Michonze. The selections here so beautifully reproduced in colour are a display of his talent in this field. Harry N. Abrams,Inc. hardcover
