2012006756Yale University Press 2012 4to 29 cm VIII 143 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket. "The floating city of Venice has enchanted visitors for centuries with its maze of scenic canals. For this pioneering book Daniel Savoy set out by boat to explore the built environment of these waterways gaining new insights into the architectural history of this major early modern Italian center. By viewing the architecture and experience of the canals in relation to the production of Venetian civic mythology the author found that the waterways of Venice and its lagoon were integral areas of the city's pre-modern urban space and that their flanking buildings were constructed in an intimate dialogue with the water's visual spatial and metaphorical properties. Enhancing the natural wonder of their aquatic setting the builders of Venice used illusory aesthetic and scenographic practices to create waterfront buildings that appear to float blend into the water and glide into view around bends in the canals--transporting visitors into a seemingly otherworldly realm. This book's striking photographs of Venice as seen from its waterways will likewise transport readers with breathtaking views of this captivating city." Yale University Press hardcover

1935190330New York: Savoy Ballroom 1935. Four Big Guns of Dance Music in a Dynamic Battle of Music From the collection of Rolling Stones drummer and jazz aficionado Charlie Watts: impossible to ignore handbill for a sensational "battle of the bands" at the celebrated Savoy Ballroom the scene of many such encounters but in this instance boasting a particularly stellar line up: Chick Webb "I'll Kill 'Em" Fletcher Henderson "I'll Murder 'Em" Fess Williams "I'll Slay 'Em" Teddy Hill "I'll Slaughter 'Em". The artwork certainly buttonholes the eyeballs: on the left four "big guns" blast out the names of the participants and on the right a mock-up of a newsstand headline declaims "EXTRA - 4 Blazing Bands Declare - JAZZ WAR - Breakfast Dance - All Night Sat. April 13th. 5 pm to 8am - 50¢ Admits You to the Musical Battle Sector". A flavour of the atmosphere of these famous sessions is captured by jazz historian Lewis A. Erenberg: "When the curtain came down on Benny Goodman's Carnegie Hall concert of 1938 the Count Basie band and many of the other musicians present raced uptown to the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem for the momentous battle of the bands with the Chick Webb Orchestra. 'That was one hell of a battle' recalled Buck Clayton Basie's trumpeter. 'All concerned were putting down some heavy swing' Webb's orchestra the house band at the Savoy all through the late 1930s and the winner of numerous battles against visiting hopefuls aimed its 'sensational whirlwind barrage chiefly at the ears and head with resounding arrangements'". A genuinely remarkable survival from the heyday of Swing advertising "Four Big Guns of Dance Music in a Dynamic Battle of Music" when "Hot Licks" were pitched against "Hot Piano" and "High Notes" went toe-to-toe with "Low Notes" - as the strapline says: "What A Fight!" From the celebrated jazz ephemera collection of Norman R. Saks. Handbill 210 x 280 mm. Printed on recto only in red and black. Neat ownership inscription in green ink of one "Chas Roy" straddling the printed name of Teddy Hill; remains of paper on verso where once pasted into an album short closed tear into lower edge general creasing and signs of handling overall light toning yet remarkably well preserved.

1941171093New York: Savoy Ballroom 1941 & 1942. The Goose Hangs High Over Harlem From the collection of Rolling Stones drummer and jazz aficionado Charlie Watts: a conspicuously uncommon pair of handbills for the celebrated Savoy Ballroom both advertising Labor Day celebrations that for the 1942 party featuring Cootie Williams and His Orchestra and the Savoy Sultans. The jive talk strapline of the day requires attendees to "Relax in Slacks Jump in Jumpers Swing in Ginghams Bounce in Pajamas". The sub-title of "The Goose Hangs High Over Harlem" derives from an old expression whose rather obscure meaning may have origins in the superstition that if geese were seen flying high then evil spirits were gone and good times were at hand. What may have been uppermost in the mind of the Savoy organisers however was Woody Herman's 1936 vocal version of the song of the same name also recorded by Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis in 1958 as a "honker" with a tight bouncing groove. "Special events by Afro-American community associations and the booking of Latin bands sustained the variety of the Savoy ballroom's dances. Fancy-dress events were the one enduring feature of the original cabaret-style entertainment that remained popular enough to survive Perhaps the reason for this popularity was the opportunity that fancy dress provided Harlemites to indulge a sense of what seemed to be the 'exotic' such as Arabian Russian and Chinese nights or the annual Barn Dance on Labor Day Authenticity was not a great concern when attempting square dancing but complaints were voiced on occasions if real bales of straw were not used to decorate the ballroom!" Malnig p. 137. From the celebrated jazz ephemera collection of Norman R. Saks. Two handbills 190 x 135 mm; 240 x 148 mm. Printed on recto only both featuring the image of a rustic skyline harvest moon and barn labelled "Savoy Hay Station". Some creasing and light signs of handling but in very good condition.
