D5274c. Paperback. Fine. 8 loose leaves folded once to create 32 pages each page about 7-by-9 inches; contains 16 extraordinary drawings of gorillas rendered in bright blue or black ink frequently in an etched or cross-hatched style reminiscent of woodcuts. With handwritten captions in Russian Latvian and German and dated from 1925-1959. Studies of the animals in the wild or captivity drawn perhaps from life but also copied from other images collected from a variety sources. Though the source of the original image is frequently noted the image itself is never included. All drawings are remarkably bold and adept the bright blue in particular lends an air of pop or modern art while others are more formal or refined. All are surrounded by equally bold perfectly legible handwritten text. Unique and simply wonderful with some haunting images on the faces of the apes. <br/><br/> paperback

192920390New York: The Longacre Press Inc 1929. First edition. Hardcover. String ties. Paper pastedown. Cloth spine. Near Fine. Promotional souvenir program for a transitional Griftith film -- shot originally as a silent re-shot with some sound including most notably songs by Irving Berlin. 4to. 31 by 22.5 cm. Unpaginated 18 leaves. This Griffith film despite rave reviews was not a success at the box office despite the talent associated with it. It also catapulted Lupe Velez to stardom briefly and a personality whose antics became dependable fodder for the press. The story is one in which the male lead William Boyd is cast aside by his girlfriend and resolves that he could find a more suitable lover off the street which he does when he connects with a singer at a sleazy bar played by Velez. Boyd a popular Silent Era romantic lead would suffer a setback in the early sound era but resurrect his career and fortune in a series of Westerns in which he played Hopalong Cassidy. "Lady of the Pavements" may have been a disappointment commercially but one would not know that from this souvenir which is an object of real beauty with its textured wallpaper-like pastedown on the front cover -- the paper used looks like a premium Japon -- its thick glossy leaves its lavish photos and Art Deco illustrations and decoration. Some photos have touches of tinting although they are from full color. And much of the ornamental decoration on the page is in color. One could say that the souvenir expressed something of the ambition of the film-makers but the constraints of early sound severely constrained what they could have done otherwise temporarily reversing some of the breakthroughs in terms of movement and artistry achieved in the Silents made just a year or two earlier. Condition: edgewear tothe cover with slight loss of the paper pastedown upper front corner. A few leaves have a small corner dampstain which is only really conspicuous on one leaf and a relatively trivial issue even on that leaf. Otherwise clean and bright. And we will also note the color on the pastedown paper is very bright as well which often not the case with this publication. The Longacre Press, Inc hardcover

1805007272Paris: Chez J. E. Gabriel Dufour. Printer: L'Imprimerie de Crapelet 1805. First Edition. Full Calf. Very Good. Large paper copy! Elephantine Folio 52 by 33 cm. 112 pp. With 72 engraved plates of tropical birds. Plates were actually printed in color with hand-coloring then augmenting that color to create exquisitely beautiful depictions of birds. Light scattered foxing a bit more on the text leaves than the plates. Generally though the plates read quite clean and they are always bright and fresh. Binding rebacked with original spine mostly preserved and laid on but the rebacking obvious along the joints. And there is some loss and cracks to the mounted original spine. Rubbing along the edges. Still the full diced calf binding which is contemporary remains attractive especially with its impressed diamond pattern. Chez J. E. Gabriel Dufour. Printer: L'Imprimerie de Crapelet unknown
