London: J Hayes for Edward Orme 1810 several plates watermarked 1825. With 26 hand-colored plates uncolored portrait of Tim Bobbin. Folio xxxiii plates; gilt titled leather-backed marbled boards edges lightly rubbed.</p><p>Collier was the Lancashire Hogarth and celebrated both for his illustrations and his writings. These illustrations evoke the saucy genre paintings of earlier Dutch artwork as well as Hogarth and closer contemporaries such as George Moutard Woodward. They are exceptional though in their economy of composition with little expended on extraneous background and details and in this they stand apart from Woodward Rowlandson and other contemporaries. Topics include love anger mercenary marriage unions the squandering of savings in the pursuit of a Pyrrhic court victory. Dentistry or the torture of tooth pulling is the subject of a number of the plates as is intemperate drinking. The characters depicted are rogues simpletons rakes picaresque types vulgarians the panoply of everyday English society brimming with life if not always virtue.</p> J Hayes for Edward Orme, hardcover

7412Date place and publisher not stated. London: R. Ackermann 1813. On a piece of good wove paper roughly 415 x 260 mm. Dimensions of engraving 180 x 220 mm. On aged paper and with the margins of the leaf trimmed. Laid down along the right hand margin runs a strip of blue paper 30 x 410 mm which it may be possible for a professional restorer to remove. This edges the border of the print which is clear and entire and overlaps a few letters of the text. Neatly coloured in sombre tones. Beneath the print is the title which ends 'at Leipsic and its environs.' and beneath the title is an eleven-line section of text headed 'THE TWO KINGS OF TERROR.' beginning 'THIS Subject representing the two Tyrants viz. the Tyrant BONAPARTE and the Tyrant DEATH sitting together on the Field of Battle'. Death is seated on a cannon with one foot on a pile of cannonballs and the other on a broken French eagle facing a dejected Bonaparte seated on a drum. In the background the massed ranks of the allies their four flags flying drive the retreating French from the field. The final four-line paragraph reads 'The above description of the subject appeared in the Sun of Saturday the 6th of November. These pointed comments arose from the picture being transparent and from a Circle indicative of the strength and brotherly union of the Allies which surmounted the same composed of gas of brilliant brightness.'

191163734New York: Kenny Publishing 1911. First Edition. First printing. Inscribed by Edward Le Roy Rice on front endpaper: "To my very dear friend Arthur Moreland with the author's best wishes" signed datemarked New York City May 6 1911. Quarto. Blue cloth-covered boards with photographic pictorial insets; decorative titling in gilt; 1436618pp; illus. Slight external rubbing; internally clean tight and unmarked with mild toning to text; a sound Very Good or better copy. <br /> <br /> An indispensable biographical reference to minstrel performers of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Rice 1871-1938 himself the son of a noted blackface performer became not only a performing minstrel but also a producer impresario and noted scholar of the history of minstrelsy. He published no fewer than four books on the subject and the current work remains the only comprehensive contemporary biographical encyclopedia of the minstrel stage including many lesser-known performers whose names have by now been all but lost to history. This copy is inscribed to one such performer Arthur Moreland a successful dramatic actor who made the shift to minstrelsy in the mid-1870s and of whom Rice states: ".he has long been recognized as the premier interlocutor a stock character in blackface shows serving the role of Master of Ceremonies and straight man in minstrelsy and the legitimate successor of Wm. H. Bernard who retired in 1872." Quite a nice copy of a book which while never especially uncommon is seldom encountered in nice condition. We have seen very few signed or inscribed examples.<br /> <br /> NOTE: This volume includes hundreds of photographic portraits of its subjects many of which can only be described as deeply offensive. Indeed there is no escaping the offensiveness of blackface performance. Yet despite the supremacist and subjugational roots of minstrelsy its lasting impact on American literary theatrical and musical culture is also undeniable. As the most popular form of stage entertainment in America from roughly the 1870s to the 1920s minstrelsy unquestionably shaped and reflected American middle-brow attitudes towards race but it also served as a gateway to legitimate African-American musical and dramatic expression as well as establishing many of the conventions for vaudeville and by extension modern comedic performance. At Lorne Bair Rare Books we generally don't handle intentionally discriminatory or racist materials unless we feel they offer legitimate avenues for research. It is clear to us that the current work given its historical scope and reference value falls into this category. Kenny Publishing unknown
