1857SP560Robert Carter and Brothers 1857. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. New York 1857. 8vo publisher's black cloth xii 13-203 pp. First edition. The first edition of the Star Spangled Banner in book form. It had been printed only as a broadside in 1814. A BAL 11093 binding B with no sequence noted. A good plus to very good minus copy with excellent contents. Lean to spine chipping to cloth at head and heel of spine contemporary ownership signature to title page light normal shelfwear. Remains well preserved. "'The Star-Spangled Banner' has been in recent times censured for its awkward melodic line but its lyrics are now so much a part of the popular patriotic imagination that any attempt at literary analysis would perhaps seem unusual. The second and third stanzas of the original song are often omitted in public ceremonies as a gesture of courtesy to the British; the words "hireling and slave" of stanza three refer to the common British practice of using mercenary soldiers. It is interesting that the critic Charles F. Richardson writing in American Literature mentions the "bald rude rhymes" in the work. He goes on to say that the song along with "Adams and Liberty" and "Hail Columbia" is "so closely enshrined in the patriotic heart . . . that no one stops to think of . . . its literary poverty" vol. 2 1889 p. 26. Richardson's comments seem a just assessment of a work that had not yet become a national symbol." - ANB. Please contact us for additional pictures or information. Sabin 37669. BAL 11093.

4351Roddenberry writes to NASA engineer Jesco von Puttkamer technical advisor to the first Star Trek film and shares his view of film making. "A number of things you commented upon were the source of some words between myself.and the actors.I doubt we will end up with anything on the screen to be ashamed of.our ‘hammer and tongs' approach has given us some very interesting dramatic moments.filmmaking sic is a joint effort by various areas of talent and a proper synthesis of this often yields interesting results." Above his typed name Roddenberry signs "Gene." Condition: A slight rust stain shows under the bow of the Enterprise and slight chipping to upper left margin otherwise in fine condition. Puttkamer 1933-2012 worked on deep space manned travel for NASA. Puttkamer led a long career with NASA receiving several distinguished awards.<br/><br/>"Star Trek The Motion Picture" opened to mixed reviews but was nevertheless followed by more Star Trek films.

It is titled 'Defence of Fort McHenry.' BAL notes six previous newspaper publications in October 1814. Like this Analectic printing none of them includes the author's name. <br/> This printing is also famous for the editor's oft-quoted anecdotal introduction: "These lines have been already published in several of our newspapers; they may still however be new to many of our readers. Besides we think that their merit entitles them to preservation in some more permanent form than the columns of a daily paper." The editor describes the "circumstances" under which the song was composed. "He watched the flag at the fort through the whole day with an anxiety that can be better felt than described. In the night he watched the bomb-shells and at early dawn his eye was greeted by the proudly-waving flag of his country."<br/>BAL 11081 Section One G. Sabin 1358. unknown books
