192015625Pissburgh: Reed & Witting Company 1920. Decorative Cloth. Very Good. The uncommon 1920 1st edition of this remarkable first-person account of the action on the battlefields of France in 1918 arguably the War's most decisive year from the perspective of a single American machine gunner. THIS COPY IS WARMLY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR'S FATHER HERBERT DU PUY WHO HERE STATES THAT "COL. CHARLES M. DUPUY THE AUTHOR DIED ON JANUARY 25 1925 FROM THE AFFECTS OF HIS SEVERE ARMY LIFE. HE WAS BURIED WITH MILITARY HONORS ON JANUARY 28 1925". The father's inscription is clearly a powerful one --if somewhat ambiguous-- and leaves open the possibility that his son died by his own hand having apparently been deeply traumatized by his service. The book is solid well-preserved and VG in its duo-tone cloth with light soiling and scuffing to the the panels. Internally very light soiling to the the endsheets and light minor creasing along a number of the pages. Quarto crisp impressive black-and-white photos thruout complement Colonel DuPuy's text. <br/><br/> Reed & Witting Company hardcover books

19510026061951. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good. Unique collection of 74 watercolors ink drawings collages and mixed media playful caricatures of a Parisian advertising executive presumably by members of his creative staff. Most of the individual send-ups are imaginative and amusing; the cumulative effect though is truly extraordinary in the sheer variety and range of the works. As a whole the album honors not merely a particular individual but the human creative spirit! Thus we have a Soviet Dupuy an angelic Dupuy an overworked Dupuy a gaucho Dupuy a scout Dupuy a wandering eye Dupuy a lolling Dupuy; he is depicted as a painter a mariner a general and on and on. These various roles assigned to him scarcely suggest the richness of ideas of the particular artwork. In just one drawing showing the executive in a bathtub we see floating atop the water the names of products presumably ones he promoted and other names spraying over him from the showerhead. Dupuy based on the wealth of images we have of him was a quintessential Frenchman in his appearance; we can also surmise that he was beloved if not also feared a bit and certainly he had to have had a charisma for few businessmen have probably ever received such an effortful and remarkable tribute as represented by this manuscript. The folio measures 33 by 28 cm 13 by 11 inches. With a dust jacket that at its center has a cameo relief of Dupuy himself. The DJ now protected with mylar has use creases minor spotting and toning. The leaves are all clean and the album is tight. <br/><br/> hardcover books
