1931D45551931. Paperback. Very Good. A sweet little hand-made volume illustrated in full-color throughout; about 4.5-by-6 inches 20 pages including front and rear cover alternately bound with staples or glue. This joyful ode to Christmas booty as in presents features a Schnauzer in holly and red bow bounding through an alphabet of potential gifts as though through a store. Perhaps created as a mock-up story board or even a potential magazine lay-out it begins with Shophound sitting in his Vogue office on Christmas Eve most illustrations are drawn hastily though nonetheless legible and pleasing in colored pencil with two tipped-on illustrations cut from an unidentified source likely a Tiffany's catalogue. A little finger-smudged with graphite and with faint editorial notes in the margins buttressing the possibility that this is an early draft of a larger project. <br/><br/> paperback

This exceptional typescript manuscript and complete suite of original illustrations provide splendid specimens for children’s book publishing during the Civil Rights & Women’s Rights movements through the Vietnam-War era. Set against the backdrop of a new young woman teacher convincing her young students to embrace intramural soccer and set up a league with other nearby schools fielding teams of all genders and races. The title was changed to “Shrimp’s Soccer Goal†when published by H.Z. Walck in 1970 but evidently intended by Lord & Berson to focus on the impact of young Miss Taylor’s enthusiasm for soccer her admiration of Pele after traveling to Brazil to see him play and inspire her students to learn the sport. The young “Negro†character Paul the best athlete is best friends with “Shrimp†and they both belong to neighborhood club with three others with Steve encouraging the young people to become involved in social justice causes. In 1969-1970 the United States featured the newly created professional soccer league sanctioned by FIFA -- North American Soccer League whose most successful franchise was the New York Cosmos who later managed to recruit both Pele from Brazil and Franz Breckenbauer from West Germany to play for them. Berson 1926-1986 was born in Los Angeles served at the end of World War II and was an avid traveler. He graduated from UCLA with a BA in 1953 and spent most of the next two decades traveling in Europe studying art in Paris and then living in Spain France Italy Yugoslavia Turkey North Africa and after 1958 together with his fellow artist & wife Paula Winter Berson 1929-2003. His first illustrated book was “Loretta Mason Potts†by Mary Chase in 1958.

Educated at the University of Wisconsin and Yale University where he was art editor of the Yale Record Osborn studied painting in Rome and Paris before returning to teach art and philosophy at the Hotchkiss School in Lakeville Connecticut. At the outbreak of World War II he enlisted in the Navy with the hope of becoming an aviator. He was assigned to an information unit under the command of the photographer Edward Steichen. As a Navy officer he learned the art of speed drawing and over his military career produced some 40000 drawings for training manuals -- many of them featuring a cartoon character named Dilbert a blunderer who violated rules of military safety. In 1946 he achieved his first public recognition for "War Is No Damn Good" said to be the first antiwar book of the nuclear age. He went on to draw for Harper's Fortune Life and Look and became a regular contributor to The New Republic. Garry Trudeau creator of the "Doonesbury" strip called Mr. Osborn "one of the very few masters of illustrative cartooning." hardcover
