As new at the published price. Electric Tulips 5.1 was conceived as a dialogue between an imaginary literary critic Gallo and the poet Gallo and revolves around the writing and presentation of his poem Electric Tulips 5.1. The essay which results Future Preterite by the esteemed critic Alessandro S. Stompanado is intended to emulate that of the essay by James Joyce written under the pseudonym Vladimir Dixon; and which appeared in the Sylvia Beach publication of 1929: Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress in which Joyce writes an appreciation of his own novel Ulysses. As such the book is a multi-layered pastiche of both literary and typographic treatments along with a magnificent double gatefold presentation of the poem in eight colors each of the seven stanzas in a separate color and the seminal tulip in an eighth; the type all set by hand and printed letterpress and polymer from Permanent Headline Open from the now defunct foundry Ludwig & Mayer. <br/><br/> privately printed unknown books

21613Advertising handbill approximately 8.5 x 5.5 inches illustrated with a wonderful or not depending on your point of view image of "A Flea Magnified." Some staining old folding creases. Joseph Fusch trademarked his Eureka Insect Exterminator--guaranteed to kill fleas flies mosquitoes bed bugs ants moths lice and cockroaches without harm to people or animals--in 1901. Based on the address on this handbill we believe it dates to 1902-1903. By 1915 the product name had been changed to Eureka Insect Killer. The back of the handbill offers "some valuable suggestions and recipes worth saving" which could also be found on each can of Eureka Insect Exterminator. While ridding yourself of pests you could also learn how to sooth your eczema cure your horses of colic and make your own baking powder among other things. unknown books
