1785ST18172Turin: Michael Briolus 1785. FIRST EDITION. 410 x 270 mm. 16 1/8 x 10 5/8". Volume II with pp. 3-4 bound before pp. 1-2 but complete. Three volumes. <br/> INVENTIVE AND ELEGANT BROWN CRUSHED MOROCCO BY ANNIE BOIGE stamp-signed "A. Boige" on front pastedown and dated 1996 on rear pastedown upper covers cleverly encrusted with botanical specimens leaves or branches smooth spines with silver titling leather hinges watermarked light gray endpapers. Housed together in the original suede-lined brown cloth drop-back box suede-covered separators preventing contact between volumes. WITH engraved frontispiece portrait of the king of Sardinia in volume I engraved allegorical vignette on title pages and 92 FINE ENGRAVED PLATES ILLUSTRATING 237 BOTANICAL SPECIES. A Large Paper Copy. Cleveland Collections 557; Dunthorne 6; Sitwell "Great Flower Books" p. 67 69; Nissen BBI 18. ◆One plate with minor repair to fore-edge margin another with tiny rust hole not touching image half a dozen plates with insignificant smudges made during the printing process other trivial imperfections but A VERY FINE COPY clean fresh and wide-margined in a flawless binding.<br/> <br/> This is a major work of 18th century botany describing more than 2800 species of plants found in Italy's Piedmont region illustrating 237 previously unknown specimens and--crucially--classifying them all according to the new Linnean system becoming one of the first regional botanicals to use that taxonomy; as a bonus our copy comes in a particularly appropriate and charming binding with prominent botanical design elements. "Flora Pedemontana" was the chief work of Italian physician Carlo Allioni 1728-1804 professor of botany at the University of Turin and director of its natural history cabinet and botanical garden. The illustrations were drawn and engraved by the botanical garden's resident artist Francesco Peyroleri and his son Pietro. Our flora is also an important source of information on Alpine flowers. The modern binding is by an artisan who was proclaimed the "Grande Dame of French bookbinding" by the journal "Art & Métiers du Livre." Annie Boige trained at the Estienne School and at the Vésinet Applied Art Workshop before establishing her atelier in 1985. An art bookbinder she is noted for her monochrome color schemes and her use of beautiful leathers and vegetal materials a felicitous choice here. Michael Briolus unknown
1917001174Paris: La Vie Parisienne 1917. First Edition . Illustrated Wraps. Very Good. 13.75" x 10.5. Vincent Rene; Leonnec Georges; Giris Cesar et al illustrators. Paris: La Vie Parisienne 1917. The Decembre 29 1917 Issue 55e annee No 52. Illustrations by Rene Vincent Cesar Giris Georges Leonnec et al. Text in French. Illustrated wraps folio 13.75" x 10.5" 19 pp. 1159 through 1177 for the 1917 year plus 1 unnumbered ad leaf and covers. Slender but at folio size a bit too large for full scans. Some cover soiling wrinkling wear and small scale chips; contents sharp bright Very Good overall. Glossy covers; first and last few internal pages are on newsprint else all glossy. Rather spectacular full-page color illustrations by Leonnec Giris Vincent et al front cover "Est-ce vous le grand enfant qui veut.une poupee pour son jour de l'an" which I believe means roughly "Are you the Big Baby who wants.a doll for your birthday" featuring a winter-clad but nonetheless fetching young lady pointing at us and Giris' "Petite Secousse au Vieux Marcheur" on the rear cover. Mild nudity sporadically in these issues but quite soft. All of the full page efforst are eminently frame-able and at this time of a sensibility midway-evolved between nouveau and deco as is much of the uncredited b&w illustration. An original - and of course first and only edition - of the 12/29/1917 issue of this memorable and long-lived French weekly offering of very soft very artful light erotica. The captioned illustrations by the eminent luminaries named above are what what really "make" this issue as was generally the case through the era but cartoons serial fiction and around-town pieces nicely compliment those. Gorgeous oversized large color illustrations are what you collect these for. l-lng1 <br/> <br/> La Vie Parisienne paperback

This copy with a duplicate of the plate facing in Volume I. Music. Overall an excellent copy.<br /> <br /> "The book appeared in part-issues at the rate of one or two a week between April of 1843 and December of 1845. The major attraction of Le diable à Paris resides in Gavarni's plates which are of even greater interest than the 320 wood engravings of his Oeuvres choisies 207. The engraving is superior for the most part and they are new conceptions not versions of his lithographs. He limits himself almost entirely to single figures or pairs evoked with his usual concentration and psychological subtlety. He had a free hand with his subjects since his designs are quite unrelated to Hetzel's text. As usual he arranged them as series some of which those devoted to writers and politicians for example are largely unprecedented in his previous repertory. He invaded Daumier's world with success in the fifteen plates of 'Bourgeois' exampled in the self-satisfied worthy reproduced II 328" Ray.<br /> <br /> Hiler 237. J. Hetzel unknown

A nice run of this official monthly publication "Issued by Industrial Workers of the World to promote the solidarity of labor."<br /> <br /> Illustrated with many cartoons drawings and black and white photographs. Issues contain a variety of IWW reporting editorial organizing efforts and other literary contributions. This "New Series" or "Second Series" of The One Big Union Monthly was the official monthly periodical of The Industrial Workers of the World which ran for eighteen issues from January 1937 to June 1938. This publication was preceded by The Industrial Pioneer which ran February 1921 to September 1926 though publication was suspended for fifteen month from February 1922 through April 1923 and by the "First Series" of The One Big Union Monthly which ran March 1919 to January 1921.<br /> <br /> It is immediately noticeable how many of the contributors and artists signed their work using pseudonyms their IWW card numbers or simply chose to remain uncredited more than likely due to the repression and fear of retribution that unions especially IWW members faced during this time in American history. Furthermore it seems as though the canons and biographies of many of the highly accomplished cartoonists and illustrators featured in this publication artists such as Pashtanika Dust Wallin Fred Jerger among several others uncredited or unidentifiable to us remain surprisingly under-documented and/or inaccessible to our online research attempts while cataloguing. Although we must note here that the website "Cartooning Capitalism" created by Michael Mark Cohen does provide some good coverage on the subject https://www.cartooningcapitalism.com/. Franklin Rosemont's 1987 essay "A Short Treatise on Wobbly Cartoons" sheds good light on the subject as well — Rosemont's essay is reprinted in more recent editions of Joyce L. Kornbluh's classic work "Rebel Voices: An IWW Anthology" PM Press 2011.<br /> <br /> Miles 4778. Industrial Workers of the World [IWW / I.W.W.] unknown
13537Philadelphia: Sunshine Publishing Company 189-. Hardcover. Good or better. No author is given and most illustrations are unsigned no list is given in the book. I believe it was published in the very in the late 1900's as an incription inside suggest it was given in 1895. Oversize color illustrated covers general wear to cover edges top edge of front cover with partial loss of color illustration. The "Admission" page which precedes the title page has some finger soiling other pages lightly soiled one page with more text is unmarked. Gift inscription; "Christmas 95 / George Freeman Day / fro / Miss Brown." The in inscription is not from 1995 so the book was given and published around the year 1895. It appears another edition of this book was published same content/ around the same time with color illustrations the book cover shows Santa Claus in color. Profusely illustrated in b/w and duotone. <br/><br/>Questions welcome. Images can be made upon request. Sunshine Publishing Company hardcover
195811447Westerham Kent UK: Privately Printed Westerham Press 1958. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine. 12mo 31pp. plus back matter. A fine copy in the publisher's thin grey wooden veneer boards with plain white spine. Spine gently and evenly faded but with the gilt still bright. Else very fresh and handsome. To paraphrase from Lane's Foreword the illustrations herein were created for various Penguin trade publications over the previous ten years. Since the thin mass-produced paper cannot give the full flavor of these wood engravings Lane decided to have this little volume made on thicker handmade paper Hosho-Shi from Berrick Brothers in London which does more justice to the engravings. With contributions from Reynolds Stone Cecil Keeling Derrick Harris Imre Reiner Roy Morgan George Buday David Gentleman and Diana Bloomfield. A lovely little book. Laid-in is a Christmas card from H. F. Paroissien who seems to have been a Director at Penguin at the time of publication. Privately Printed [Westerham Press] hardcover

Spine with five raised bands paneled and lettered in gilt in compartments all edges gilt cream watered silk liners and endleaves.Quarto 9 7/8 x 7 5/16 inches; 251 x 186 mm. vi 140 pp. Fourteen color plates tipped-in to captioned tan stock with brown line frame many black and white text drawings. Four figure ink number upside down on verso of rear blank leaf. An exceptional copy.<br /> <br /> A relatively common book but scarce in fine condition. This may well be a special presentation binding that was done at the time of publication. "This was the first of a group of wartime books sponsored by prominent people and sold to raise money for worthy causes. The most popular it sold 604884 copies during the two years 1914-1916 that is was in print. The Times in an article November 21 1914 sought to promote the cause "The Queen's Fund" by directing the public to the display of the original drawings at the Leicester Galleries" Hughey.<br /> <br /> The fourteen tipped-in color plates include:<br /> <br /> "So nobody can quite explain Exactly where the rainbows end" Arthur Rackham "True Spartan Hearts" Edmund Dulac<br /> "The Ant Lion" E.J. Detmold<br /> "A Holiday in Bed" W. Russell Flint<br /> <br /> There are also many black & white drawings by C.E. Brock; E.J. Detmold; Arthur Rackham; Byam Shaw; H. M. Brock; Lewis Baumer and Edmund J. Sullivan.<br /> <br /> Arthur Rackham 1867-1939 is perhaps the most acclaimed and influential illustrators of the Golden Age of Illustration. A prolific artist even from his youth Rackham got his start as an illustrator working for the Westminster Budget Newspaper 1892. Over the next few years he took on more and more commissions for children's books hitting his career high in the first three decades of the twentieth century. Rackham turned his imaginative pen to every classic-from Shakespeare to Dickens to Poe.<br /> <br /> Latimore and Haskell 93. Riall 120. Hughey 34. Hodder and Stoughton unknown
