134382Hardcover. Good ex-library. the bindings are in excellent condition but the volumes are scrapbooks and all items were pasted in with glue. furthermore the mounting paper is acidic and has become quite brittle. as a result many of the programs are wavy from the paste are toned from the paper or have edgewear. still it's a very interesting and unique collection. 4 volumes. Black library buckram in black library slipcases. Not paginated. Oversize and quite bulky. The title for these volumes is merely descriptive as they were not formally published. They are nicely bound scrapbooks containing of newspaper clippings advertisements and handbills and programs for a variety of concerts and performances chiefly in New York City. The contents were collected by Louis Raphael Dressler an organist conductor occasional composer and a charter member of the Manuscript Society who was also very active in the New York music scene for over 50 years. This would be a great one of a kind collection for researchers or connoisseurs interested in New York's music and theatrical milieu or performing artists and arts organizations during the years listed. hardcover books

197524869Westlake Village CA: F & J Publishing Corp. Fine in Very Good dj. c.1975. First Edition. Hardcover. nice clean book with no discernible wear; jacket shows a touch of wear to a couple of upper corners light surface-rubbing. color and B&W reproductions An exploration of the life and work of Alfredo Ramos Martinez 1871-1946 who "fathered the great Mexican mural renaissance which made the names Orozco Rivera and Siqueiros world-famous." The author "has traced the artist from his early years in Mexico through the period of his European studies and his return to Mexico and finally to his climactic experience in the United States where he left a record of his finest work before he died." Laid in to this copy is a trifold brochure for an exhibition of Ramos Martinez's work presented at the Dalzell Hatfield Galleries in Los Angeles in October-November 1975; although not explicitly stated anywhere it seems likely that this also provided the occasion for the publication of this book. I believe this was the first and may still be the only full-length book about the artist published in English.
