Bird & Bull Press. 8vo. quarter leather over cloth covered boards leather label on spine. 131 pages. First edition. Limited to 140 numbered copies. There was a time when book collecting was big news. In the first half of the twentieth century some of America's leading financiers executives and philanthropists played "this book-collecting game" as A. Edward Newton called it and competed with each other for the finest books and manuscripts in the world. Their booksellers were no less newsworthy and one of the most astute knowledgeable and flamboyant of them all was Dr. A.S.W. Rosenbach of Philadelphia. Dr. R. as the press liked to call him helped to build some of America's greatest collections and his own library assembled from the treasures that he took home for himself rather than put into his stock still draws visitors and researchers from around the world. Dr. Rosenbach and Mr. Lilly: Book Collecting in a Golden Age is the story of one collector Josiah Kirby Lilly Jr. of Indianapolis and the books and manuscripts that he bought from Dr. Rosenbach. The story is told through the many letters that they exchanged and through the descriptions and illustrations of the books and manuscripts themselves. Though this book is the story of only one collector and bookseller it is also a microcosm of a great age of book collecting in which choices were made by booksellers and collectors alike that shaped the contents of some of the greatest research libraries of our own day.

Duotone illustrated boards with black cloth spine and gilt lettering. 176 pp. with 2 gatefolds; 47 duotone cataloge items pictured. Issued in conjunction with a series of 2008-2009 exhibitions. "The central goal of this exhibition is to display a selection of impressive and rare examples of this important yet unfamiliar category of prints that blossomed across Europe in the sixteenth century. It will introduce the composite print phenomenon in order to reassess and situate it within the history of Renaissance visual culture while also hoping to stimulate further study. For the first time since the ground-breaking exhibition Riesenholzschnitte Giant Woodcuts held in Germany in 1976 this exhibition assembles nearly fifty of these multipart works in one place. It however also expands the body of material from that earlier exhibition to include both engravings and etchings in addition to woodcuts." p. 8 With essays by Larry Silver Suzanne Boorsch Lilian Armstrong Alison Stewart and Stephen Goddard a substantial bibliography and the exhibition checklist of 47 items. Beautiful and detailed reproductions of the prints. Davis Museum and Cultural Center, Wellesley College hardcover books

200726252Hong Kong/Köln/London/Los Angeles/Madrid/Paris/Tokyo: Barnes & Noble / Taschen. Fine in Fine dj. 2008 c.2007. Reprint. Hardcover. nice clean copy with no discernible wear to either book or jacket. Movie Icons Series B&W and color photographs There are certainly better and definitely bigger books about Steve McQueen than this small-format tome 6"x8" but if you're in search of a kind of "essence of McQueen" you couldn't do much better. There's an intelligent introductory essay "Steve McQueen: King of Cool" by Alain Silver followed by a "Visual Filmography" which takes up the heart of the book and presents stills from all his films all credited to The Kobal Collection and beautifully reproduced in the best Taschen manner. The Chronology Filmography alas with just the director's credit plus McQueen's role and Bibliography are all quite brief but that doesn't take away from its pleasure as a pictorial survey of his career. All text and captions are in English German and French. The original 2007 Taschen edition seems to have been issued as a paperback only; this edition hardcover with dust jacket appears to have been produced basically for the American remainder market yet seems to be less common than the paperback. Go figure. . Barnes & Noble / Taschen hardcover books
