196724015New York: Carp & Whitefish 1967. First edition. Loose Sheets. Very Good. Loose cards in envelope. The scarce second "book" by Marshall. Published by Irving Rosenthal at his Carp & Whitefish press. Each card 14 has illustrations by William Heine on one side and text by Marshall on the verso. One of the cards is folded to form a small booklet. The cards reside in a decorated envelope with a cloth string hanging from it. The cards measure 3 3/8" wide x 6 1/4" tall. Cards are in near fine condition. The envelope is a bit soiled and worn. PLEASE NOTE: This copy contains two copies of "A Snort or Rain Broom and lacks the card entitled "The Fool". Sold in as -in condition. Marshall circulated among many different poet groups of the 60's from the Beats to the Black Mountain crew and beyond and never quite settled in any one group. He was anthologized in Don Allen's New American Poetry and later appeared in many small press journals such as Measure Yugen and the Black Mountain Review. No indication of a print run but it is safe to say that not many saw the light of day. Eleven copies held in institutional hands but the book seldom comes to light in the secondary market.

P4884Neapoli i.e. Bern: Presso Giacomo Palpiri i.e. V. I. Bakst 1863. Octavo 17.8 à 11 cm. Recent paper-covered card binding; part of front wrapper affixed to front board; 5 109 pp. Internally very good. First complete Russian translation of Heine's "Das Buch Le Grand" 1927. The work had been previously published in Russia but as the translator notes with significant cuts by the censor which greatly distorted Heine's humor and wit. Originally published in 1927 "Das Buch Le Grand" was the second of Heine's "Reisebilder". It is a work which embraces the spirit of Napoleon and the French Revolution and it served to cement his reputation as a witty leader among liberal German writers. It was This new edition was published in Bern Switzerland using a fictitious imprint at the printer's shop of V. I. Bakst founded in 1862 to satisfy a growing need for revolutionary and other illegal materials which could not be printed in Russia. Bakst was also instrumental in setting up a St. Petersburg illegal typography in 1862. A somewhat censored and shortened edition of Mainov's translation appeared in Moscow the same year. Ironically given Heine's own issues with censorship and his literary fate in nineteenth-century Russia this translation reproduces the fictitious censored passage in the original in which Heine composed a paragraph of dashes leaving only the words "The German censors. Idiots." KVK OCLC only show the copies at Humboldt Universität SLUB Dresden and Universitätsbibliothek J. C. Senckenberg. Not at the Russian State or National Libraries. unknown books
