1909007852New York: The Metropolitan Company 1909. First Edition. Hardcover. Paper pastedown on boards. Good. 8vo. 24 by 15 cm. 71 pp. With two plates each with a photo of the respective singers. The plates are on a glossy stock and accompanied by tissue guards. Binding solid in terms of holding book together but spine perished with all of original paper pastedown gone. You see mostly the flexible card that is essential for the binding architecture and this somewhat minimizes the conspicuousness of the missing layer in this volume at least in our view but you do catch a glimpse of the mull the fabric mesh binding material and the gatherings and obviously this is undesirable. The boards' paper pastedown are heavily stained and soiled. The prelim leaves and final leaves are stained. Otherwise the leaves are generally clean with very occasional light stains and the copy is solid. On the title page the address for the Metropolitan Company publishers is crossed out -- it was printed as a 42nd Street address and in ink below is written 8-12 East 34 Street. The opera house -- the original or old house was on Broadway and took up the entire block of 39th to 40th Street with its back elevation on Seventh Avenue. We have not looked into this. We assume the inked address is the accurate one at the time. We have no idea who would have made this correction nor whether this correction was made in other copies. We do not think this will be an issue for most people interested in the title. The Metropolitan Company hardcover

1916H8242Boston: The Stratford Company 1916. Hardcover. Very Good. First American edition. 8vo red cloth light wear and soil spine faded. Inscribed on the pastedown to Sidney Lanier Jr. from the translator also signed on the flyleaf "Bravo Lista!" by Enrico Caruso and inscribed also very fondly on the half title to Lanier from the translator "With Compliments of the Country Cobbler and Translator dated January 2nd 1917. The recipient Sidney Lanier Jr. was the son of a famous Confederate poet and musician who died in 1881. Sidney ran an interesting camp in Eliot Maine. According to the website Mainmemories: "At Camp Sidney Lanier in Eliot campers acted out Bible dramas written by Sidney Lanier Jr. 1870-1918 every Sunday in the woods. Lanier using ideas developed by his father poet Sidney Lanier Sr. 1870-1918 attempted to teach children the "art of living." They participated in a strict routine of music crafts nature study and other activities. Children went through a hierarchy of types of social organization to reach the highest form which was spiritual and represented by farm and home. " Finally at the end of the book a blank page is inscribed from Elizabeth Sidney's spouse Lanier to her grandson explaining the connection between Burt the editor of the book and the Lanier family; this inscription is dated 1933. A great association copy of this particular book. We don’t know the circumstances in which Enrico Caruso signed this book other than that Lista and De Amicis were both of Italian extraction and that the tale of the close connection between De Amicis and his dog would have resonated with Caruso who also loved dogs and whose dog Puck often traveled with him.

1976158764<p>Toronto: Seripress 1976. Edition of 20 numbered copies of which this is copy no. 16. Fine. 8 serigraphs numbered and signed by artist. Tissue guard for each print. Title and series page. In black card folder and white card slipcase. 26 cm. <br /><br />Seripress was intended solely for the publication of concrete and visual poetry. Most of the titles were silkscreened throughout which enabled the artist to use colour if required. When colours were used Caruso mixed them herself. She also cut letters by hand. The hand-cut images and letters were placed on profilm sheets a lacquer gel on plastic to make a stencil which would then be fixed to the silk screen of the press. The pages were hand-printed; Caruso didn't use photo-silkscreen methods. After each title was printed the profilm stencil was dissolved from the screen ensuring the title couldn't be printed again using that plate. Even the folders were handmade by the artist.</p> Seripress

1908338961908. <p>Enrico Caruso an Italian opera singer was one of the greatest tenors in history. Caruso was also the most popular singer in any genre in the first two decades of the 20th Century and one of the most important pioneers of recorded music. Caruso's popular recordings and his extraordinary voice known for its mature power beauty and unequalled richness of tone made him perhaps the best-known operatic star of his era. Such was his influence on singing style many subsequent tenors have been his heirs. During his career Caruso made over 260 recordings and made millions of dollars from the sale of his 78 rpm records. While Caruso sang at many of the world's great opera houses including La Scala in Milan and Covent Garden in London he is best known as the leading tenor at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City for 17 years.</p><p>“Il Trovatore†by legendary opera composer Giuseppe Verdi first premiered on January 19 1853 and has been a major operatic staple since. The work is so lush with melody that all of the world’s greatest singers have attempted one of the major roles that are the foundation of the work. “Il Trovatore†has also drawn much attention for its quick-fire libretto that jumps quickly through time much of the major drama taking place off-stage.</p><p>Caruso played Manrico in performances of “Il Trovatore†and a famous photograph shows Caruso in that role circa 1908. This is that very <strong>photograph signed</strong> boldly by Caruso. It is our first signed photograph of Caruso dressed for one of his great roles in 17 years.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-25018 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown

Caruso also made approximately 260 commercially released recordings from 1902 to 1920. Caruso's 25-year career stretching from 1895 to 1920 included 863 appearances at the New York Metropolitan Opera before he died at the age of 48.
