193151845Stuttgart: J. Engelhorns Nachf 1931. First edition. Salomon Erich. Small 4to. 46 pp. and 112 b&w photos on 104 pp. with texts in German English French and Spanish. Plain card wrappers with the printed dust jacket affixed to the spine. The lower tip is bumped there are small chips missing at the edges and rubbing at the spine; on the front panel a 2-inch closed tear at the top near the spine and a short one at the bottom has been closed with archival tape on the blank reverse. The dust jacket is worn but largely intact and good. This seems to be a unique prepublication copy either a maquette or a copy for review. All other copies I have handled over the years have been in blue cloth titled in gilt issued with a separate dust jacket. I have consulted with both Martin Parr the noted photographer author and collector and Manfred Heiting noted author and collector who concur; neither have seen such a copy. Salomon from a German-Jewish banking family studied mechanical engineering and the law. In 1927 he took up the miniature camera and recorded the ruling class from his privileged seat among them. This work is a regarded as one of the most important books of the candid camera. The title which translates as "Famous Contemporaries in Unguarded Moments" includes photos of Hindeburg Chamberlain Lloyd George William Randolph Hearst Richard Strauss and others.

332115 p.l. 984 pp. 30 leaves of index. Thick 8vo cont. half-sheep & paste-paper boards. Leipzig: G.M. Knoch 1733. The catalogue of the vast library of Cyprian 1673-1745 "one of the last important and influential representatives of the Lutheran orthodoxy."-N.D.B. He was librarian of the Ducal Library at Gotha did much to improve it and published a catalogue of its MSS. His library was certainly one of the most important "Gelehrtenbibliotheken" of his time; a considerable portion of it was of course devoted to theology - the title-page especially recommends it to the student of theology and ecclesiastical history - and the subject index of theological works alone occupies 29 pp. as opposed to that of all other subjects which only takes up 20 pp. This is the second edition of the catalogue much enlarged with items acquired since the publication of the first edition Gotha: 1726. The 1747 Gotha edition is no doubt the sale catalogue published after Cyprian's death. At the end on nine pages we find the bibliography of Cyprian's forty-nine publications. Nice copy. ❧ A.D.B.

Charlotte Salomon 1917-1943 was a German-Jewish artist; born in Berlin she fled Nazi Germany to live in the south of France where she produced the 769 gouaches in "Life or Theater". The book is a somewhat fictionalized account of Salomon's upbringing her family's personal tragedies in the suicides of both her mother and grandmother and her love affair with Alfred Wolfsohn 1896-1962 a voice teacher also living in Berlin. After Salomon had finished the paintings and entrusted them to a friend for safekeeping she was captured by the Nazis and sent to Auschwitz where she was gassed soon after her arrival.
