192281727Cleveland: Merit Publishing Co 1922. First Edition. 12mo. Staple-bound pictorial wrappers; 40pp; illus. Light external wear and soil; internally complete sound and unmarked; Very Good. <br /> <br /> Single issue of this low-budget interwar men's magazine an amateur potpourri of off-color jokes double-entendres wink-wink nod-nod anecdotes anti-Prohibition nostrums and photo illustratons of scantily clad by 1920s standards Hollywood starlets with captions such as: "Here she is fellers. This is the kind of lady who breaks up homes.how'd you like to have her break up yours" And so on. Though the contents of Hot Dog never ventured beyond the palest shades of blue its notional audience - American G.I.s who'd returned from the boites of Europe with suddenly "advanced" notions of sexuality and morality - were clearly appreciative as Dinsmore's outfit kept up publishing at least until 1933.

198834996New York: George Braziller Inc. 1988. First edition. Hardcover. vg. Folio. 192pp. Original illustrated dust-jacket over orange cloth with blue lettering on spine and white lettering on front cover. Endlessly experimenting with design composition and color Hiroshige captured in these paintings as no where else in his work his poetic and idyllic sense of nature. This exquisite volume offers a most accessible introduction to the work of Utagawa Hiroshige 1797-1858 master Japanese print maker and artistic force during the Edo period an exciting era in Japanese art. Bird and flower painting kacho-e is a sub-genre of the ukiyo-e style. Though naturalistic ukiyo-e "aims to capture the spirit or essence of the object depicted not strictly its material form." The 91 spectacular color plates reproduced from the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Collection at the Museum of Art Rhode Island School of Design highlight Hiroshige's refined color sense economy of composition and delicate never-sentimental renderings. Haiku or kyoka translations accompany most plates and an informative introduction by Bogel gives a short history of the Edo period describing its roots and symbolism and placing Hiroshige and his influence in historical context.

1948BOOKS006735Twelve monthly issues each page numbered individually with pictures diagrams and photographs. Quarto 11 1/4" x 8 3/4" Volume 16 bound in original publisher's red cloth with silver lettering to spine. Betts: 7-76 First edition.<br /><br />The <i>Chess Review</i> is a U.S. chess magazine that was published from January 1933 until October 1969 Volume 37 Number 10. Until April 1941 it was called <i>The Chess Review</i>. Published in New York it began on a schedule of at least ten issues a year but later became a monthly. Isaac Kashdan was the editor for the first year with Al Horowitz and Fred Reinfeld as associate editors. After one year Kashdan left and Horowitz became editor a position he retained for the remainder of the magazine's existence. <i>Chess Review</i> was virtually unchallenged as the premier U.S. chess periodical from its start in 1933 until a rival emerged in 1961 after a major revamp of the official United States Chess Federation magazine Chess Life. The two magazines remained in competition until November 1969 when Horowitz retired and the magazines were merged to become <i>Chess Life & Review</i>. The cover of the first issue featured a chess problem composed by Otto Wurzburg 1875–1951 a Grand Rapids Michigan postal worker. Kashdan was one of the world's premier problem solvers of the 1920s and 1930s. His interest in compositions influenced the magazine for years after he left and the cover would feature a chess problem every issue until May 1941. Wurzburg served as problem editor and contributed a monthly column. The magazine staff also included art director Bertram Kadish who contributed cartoons and illustrations. An unusual feature of the first issue was a bridge column written by George Reith. Horowitz and Reinfeld were contract bridge devotees but the column was dropped after three issues.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Corners and spine ends lightly rubbed some dampening to head pages of first number.
