1915002601Berlin: Hermann Hillger Verlag 1915. First Edition. Paper pastedown on boards. Very Good. 8vo. Unpaginated with 25 leaves a color plate on each of them not counting title leaf. The color plate is on the recto and the facing verso contains accompanying verse. The artwork bears the style of a darkish late impressionism as it moved towards an Expressionist sensibility. As not everything was by the same hand there is some diversity of style coloring literalism of course. Included is an original subscription or order form for the book. It would appear that the book was sold in part or perhaps entirely through direct sales spearheaded by the Crown Princess and conducted by aristocratic women at least in some measure. Light soiling to the cover pastedown. Scattered light soiling within. One gathering is partly loose. Hermann Hillger Verlag unknown

With 26 of 28 two having been used for the doublures memorably intriguing tipped-on color plates by Adelaide Hanscom and Blanche Cummings all with tissue guards and the text with Orientalist decorations those on the title and opening pages hand-colored and highlighted with gilt. Paas 1513. Spine evenly darkened title page with small tears at inner margin lower corner of one plate torn at tip image unaffected other trivial imperfections but still quite an attractive copy--clean fresh and bright the leaves with vast margins and the heavily-gilt binding lustrous.<br/> <br/> This is an especially appealing copy of a ground-breaking illustrated edition of the Rubaiyat in an elaborate binding with splendid doublures created by a prominent American workshop using images from two of the color plates in the work. One of the early women pioneers in the field San Francisco photographer Adelaide Hanscom 1875-1931 began working on photographs to illustrate the Rubaiyat in 1903 and called on members of the Bay Area's bohemian literary and artistic community to serve as models among them "Poet of the Sierras" Joaquin Miller the white-bearded sage in our illustrations Charles Sterling George Wharton James and Charles Keeler. Hanscom was already making a name for herself as a portrait photographer and as a member of the Pictorialism movement defined by Britannica as "an approach to photography that emphasizes beauty of subject matter tonality and composition rather than the documentation of reality." Those characteristics are on prominent display in her Rubaiyat images first published as sepia-toned photogravures in 1905. This work caused a sensation and won Hanscom international attention including a silver medal at the Liverpool Exposition in England. Perhaps more meaningful to Hanscom was the notice of the great Alfred Stieglitz who made her an Associate Member of his Photo-Secession and included two of her prints in an exhibition at the Little Galleries of the Photo-Secession later known as "219" in New York. The San Francisco earthquake of 1906 destroyed the studio of Hanscom and her partner Cumming including all the negatives of the Rubaiyat plates. The photographs copyrighted by Dodge Publishing were all that remained. The Getty Center which owns a copy of this work suggests that Hanscom and Cumming created the plates here by hand-coloring the photographs and the title of our edition implies those "Life Studies" were then photographed for this work. The memorable binding is by Boston's Harcourt Bindery founded in 1900 to provide hand bookbinding services for the publications of the burgeoning number of private presses created by the Arts & Crafts Movement in New England. The binders took two of the color plates from the work--the frontispiece and the final image from the 1905 edition--to create centerpieces for the doublures adding a gilt and onlaid grape arbor that evokes imagery from the poem. The Harcourt Bindery remains the largest bindery in the United States exclusively devoted to fine bookbinding by hand. Dodge Publishing Company 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
