199676376London: Chatto & Windus 1996. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Signed and dated by Isaiah Berlin on a prefatory blank leaf. The British philosopher and historian of ideas Sir Isaiah Berlin 1909-97 is regarded as one of the founders of the discipline now known as intellectual history.

The title essay starting from the impossibility of historians being able to recreate a bygone epoch is a superb centerpiece. From the library of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Michael Parks. Edited by Henry Hardy with an introduction by Patrick Gardiner. Octavo. Original blue cloth binding with gilt titles. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Chatto & Windus hardcover

1949177431New York: no publisher 1949. I lift my lamp beside the golden door Rehearsal script for the musical concerning the model for the Statue of Liberty including the song "Give Me Your Tired Your Poor". which the composer hoped would become another "God Bless America". This appears to be an early version of the script as it includes three numbers that were not recorded on the original Broadway cast recording. Three years after Annie Get Your Gun had proved a triumph Berlin returned to Broadway "with a show that had all the earmarks of a hit" Deutsch p. 14. In competition with South Pacific Kiss Me Kate and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes the show achieved a respectable run of 308 performances but has never been revived on Broadway. The script comprises the title page a listing of characters a listing of scenes the script of Act 1 57 pages Act 2 52 pages and a concluding blank. This copy has the ownership signature of Ted Adolphus on the title page. Theodore Adolphus 1894-1969 was a German-born dancer and choreographer who worked on All the King's Horses 1934 and Sweethearts 1947. Dances and musical numbers for Miss Liberty however were staged by Jerome Robbins. Nevertheless there are pencil annotations throughout "all applaud and exit" "Countess comes back for bow and into scene" "singers and dancers do a 32 bar parade before fig proper starts" "boys loud shirts rowdy atmospheres" etc. two loosely inserted notes and one diagram of staging positions on the verso of leaf 2-7-41. The three musical numbers present in the script but excluded from the "complete" Broadway cast recording comprise the opening chorus "Extra -- Extra / Morning noon and night we yell" "Miss Liberty" and "Me an' my bundle".

Attractively and very sturdily bound in contemporary red quarter morocco over glazed red boards marbled endpapers top edges gilt all original wrappers bound in sic! -- Ad 2: 183 pp. With 43 illustrations in the text. Original publisher's orange cloth. Original edition. B.H. Breslauer copy of the justly famous catalogue of the vast collection of ornamental books and prints of the Kunstbibliothek Berlin at one time the most comprehensive in existence in the field of decorative art and architecture. It comprised printed material from the late 15th to the early 19th century. The collection was based upon that of Hippolyte Destailleur the great connoisseur which was acquired in 1879 to which was added the extraordinary holdings of the Kunstgewerbemuseum and Kupferstichkabinett. The catalogue is a model of its kind with complete descriptions and plate counts often missing in reference works that claimed to "succeed" it of no less than 5435 items. The collections suffered greivous losses during WWII but the present catalogue remains of permanent value to bibliographers and art historians alike as is attested by the facsimile reprints of it all greatly inferior to ours on account of the shoddy reproductions of the illustrations. Our copy is attractively bound with all the original wrappers of the first 12 fascicles bound in. This original edition is scarce having been published in Berlin at the worst possible time in publishing history namely from 1936-1939. <br /> <br /> Ad 2: Printed in 1977 the books described in this "English Architectural Art" volume were completely lost during WWII and thus the rebuiding of this collection became a priority for the Kunstbibliothek Berlin aided with a generous grant from the Volkswagon Foundation. The results are herein and present 119 titles of rare English architectural and topographical books ranging in date from Dugale's "Monasticon Anglicum" 1661 to Robinson's "Designs for Gate Cottages" 1837 all very capably described.

1934152189New York 1934. Rare dinner invitation signed and inscribed by both Irving Berlin and Moss Hart from a dinner party held aboard the MV Saturnia on August 5 1934. Printed on Arches paper with an illustration after Charles Martin on the cover. Inscribed by Berlin on the cover “To Mrs. Annie Wales all good wishes from Irving Berlin†and by Hart on the reverse “To Annie Wales Moss Hart ‘Saturnia.’†At the date of the invitation Berlin and Hart were Broadway’s reigning collaborators having written the revues Face the Music 1932 and As Thousands Cheer 1933 together. The Saturnia a premier Italian ocean liner of the 1930s and among the first ships to offer private balconies to passengers sailed the Trieste–New York route until her requisition for service in the Second World War. From the collection of Tony Grammy and Emmy Award–winning composer Charles Strouse and his wife choreographer Barbara Siman. Over his 50-year career Charles Strouse wrote the music for such iconic musical theater hits as Bye Bye Birdie Applause and Annie as well as the theme song for the classic sitcom All in the Family “Those Were the Daysâ€. His partnership with Martin Charnin on Annie produced one of Broadway’s most successful scores ever with “Tomorrow†and other songs from the production becoming enduring American musical standards admired by generations. His reach knew no genre or generation from a number-one Billboard hit in 1958 to Jay-Z’s Grammy-winning sampling of “It’s the Hard-Knock Life†four decades later and his honors include three Tony Awards and induction into both the Songwriters and Theater Halls of Fame. In good condition with small pen marks at the head of the cover faint browning to the margins and water-staining to the recipient’s name on both sides not affecting the Berlin inscription. A document of Broadway’s golden generation from the collection of one of its heirs. Irving Berlin whom Jerome Kern declared “has no place in American music — he is American music” wrote an unequaled songbook across six decades from “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” through “God Bless America” “White Christmas” and the score of Annie Get Your Gun. Moss Hart his collaborator on the revues Face the Music and As Thousands Cheer became one of the defining men of the American theater: with George S. Kaufman he wrote You Can’t Take It With You awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and The Man Who Came to Dinner and as a director he staged the original productions of My Fair Lady and Camelot. His memoir Act One remains among the most celebrated accounts of a life in the theater. unknown
