1919006803Milano-Roma: Alfieri & Lacroix 1919. Limited First Edition. Portfolio. Very Good. No. 186 of 250 limitation. Scarce -- only copy recorded on OCLC First Search at BNF! Elephantine folio 66 by 49 cm with pictorial element excluding margins of mounted sheet 43 by 28 cm. Title page preface table of contents followed by 20 plates depicting the Italian navy and sailors during the First World War. All leaves loose as issued. Nine of the plates depict the Italian navy in one way or another and 11 plates relate to the Serbian retreat during the war. Eight of the plates are portraits the remainder being action scenes. The artwork is broad stroked and has elements of Expressionism. Captured is both the heroism of the sailors and the grimness bleakness and suffering of war. The illustrations are two toned with the color varying but always solemn and dark in feel. Carpi 1886-1973 was a notable Italian artist who among other things helped design new stained glass windows for the Duomo in Milan. During the Second World War he was imprisoned by the Germans in a concentration camp an experience he recorded in sketches and writings -- thus in some sense a counterpart to this series of artwork covering the First World War.

439072C.P. Thompson. Paperback. Very Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. 'Stormcaller' started life as a set of ideas and illustrations when I was studying at university. My father Paul wrote the original narrative and I have gradually added to it and refined it into its current format. from Clare Thompson's Kick Starter page. I decided to go for a hand-made approach when creating illustrations for the book using mostly ink and watercolour. I found that working in this way has allowed me to use water to create the atmosphere I thought was necessary for a story set in stormy weather conditions. The citizens of the town begin to feel powerless and are increasingly at the mercy of the elements. To evoke this feeling I found an experimental approach was necessary. In some cases I allowed the water to be in control of the piece; having drawn the basic elements the water could bleed and wash the ink away as the people are subjected to increasingly severe conditions.

196262965Paris France & Madrid Spain: Harold Berson April 1962. 4to. Six original pen & ink sketches by Berson sized 6.75 x 8.8 in. preserved in the original “Dessin†sketchpad of the artist w/ cartoon on front cover and artist’s signature and date of 4/25/62 front cover tears at gutter margin of a couple drawings a couple detached still an excellent group of original sketches together w/ large unidentified charcoal drawing on recto paint blotches on verso from the artist working. A splendid portfolio of six original pen & ink sketches by the noted children’s artist for an apparently unpublished rendition of the adventures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza from Cervantes. The first drawing depicts Don Quixote attacking the flock of sheet mistakenly believing that they were two armies marching against one another; freeing of the chained galley slaves; stabbing the wine sacks; waving sword and armour just before destroying the puppet show representing the Moors while Sancho Panza holds his head; as well as image of Don Quixote in the cow cart and Sancho Panza dutifully riding alongside. Also included is what appears to be a detailed drawing of short and pot-bellied Sancho Panza. 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. He is perhaps best-remembered for his whimsical fairy tale creatures in his Henry Possum Mabel Watts’s “The King and the Whirlybird†“Mother Goose Treasury†“Raminagrobis and the Mice†“King Midas and the Golden Touch†and many others.

196062025Albany OR: Fred F. Calson ca. 1960. Seven original paintings. Oblong folio. 20 x 15 in. painted in muted gouache on Crescent Illustration Board No. 300 with original label indicating the board were purchased from the Duedall-Potts Stationers in downtown Albany OR and all are signed by the artist minor age toning & wear to fore-edges very slight scuffing still an excellent bright group. This series of military industrial concept art paintings appear to have been executed sometime around 1960 and most likely for articles in Popular Mechanics Mechanix Illustrated or military-specific periodicals focusing on weapons development. The first painting captures a jet close to the Lockheed F-104 but tale configuration different bombing a section of jungle with massive explosion in center of painting; 4-tracked dozer & trailer being lowered by Sikorsky dual-rotor helicopter into the debris; the caterpillar 4-tracked dozer then clearing the debris and finally being reloaded into dual-rotor heavy-lift helicopter. Other proposed military applications for the same four-track platform were an ambulance in battlefield conditions with one soldier carrying another to the open back door; four-tube rocket launcher featuring sharp angles and planes foreshadowing the ungainly Tesla Truck and finally portable communications with revolving antenna and operator in rear half of the four-track vehicle. Although the proposed innovations as depicted in the concept art do not specifically mention a manufacturer or company these appear to be quite similar in operation and construction as the famed Tucker Sno-Cat 4-track vehicles which were historically developed and built in the company factory based out of Medford Oregon and famously used by Sir Vivian Fuchs in crossing Antarctica overland in 1958. Calson 1927-2009 was a Detroit-born commercial artist who served in the U.S. Army during World War II then the Army Air Force and later studied at Art Center. He became a noted industrial illustrator and commercial artist as well as farmer and woodworker. He was also well-known for his set designs and backdrops for the Lebanon Theater Workshop in Albany Oregon. Fred F. Calson, unknown
