19891005North Point Press 1989. First thus. Hardcover. Near fine. Association copy inscribed by Berry on the first blank in the year of publication to the poet critic and biographer Vince Clemente with a holograph version of the titular poem "Traveling at Home." Clemente was a professor at SUNY and his papers are held at Rochester University. This trade volume by North Point Press Berry's longtime home in its various permutations with editor-publisher Jack Shoemaker reproduces a fine press version published by the Press of Appletree Alley at Bucknell University in 1988 the year before this edition limited to 150 signed copies. The first section in the book is a short essay running 10 pages "A Walk Down Camp Branch" described as "an essay in which the author reveals his special sensitivity to nature and his rural Kentucky community"; the second two sections feature fifteen poems. Fifty-six pages total. Green botanically patterned paper boards and a dark green cloth spine; speckled mint-green endpapers. Illustrated throughout with wood engravings in green by well-known artist John DePol. A handsome production adhering to the original and likely less common signed in this trade version. Without a dust jacket as issued. A near fine copy with just a touch of rubbing to corners; the lower front corner has just worn through to the board but it's tidy and inconspicuous. The holograph poem is sensational and makes this a unique find. Berry is our consummate agrarian poet-writer-intellectual and "Traveling at Home" in Kentucky defines his world-renown ethos. North Point Press hardcover
20231004NY: Knopf 2023. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Association copy inscribed on the title page in the Nobel Prize winner's small script: "For Eric and Tania Idle from Jim Watson." Eric Idle is the English actor comedian musician and writer best and very hilariously known as a member of the British surreal comedy group Monty Python. Laid in is a typed letter signed TLS on Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory stationary roughly 4 x 7" dated July 2003. Conveying the book it's addressed to Tania Eric Idle's wife and is seven sentences in all perhaps most intriguingly: "Being like you on Paul Allen's super St. Petersburg weekend was a once in a lifetime experience." Sounds fun. It also mentions enclosing two short speeches but those are no longer present. Watson's first book The Double Helix 1968 telling the story of his and Crick's discovery of DNA remains one of the most successful science memoirs of all time. Thirty five years late DNA: The Secret Life serves as layman's introduction and a longview: "Watson provides the general reader with clear explanations of molecular processes and emerging technologies. He shows us how DNA continues to alter our understanding of human origins and of our identities as groups and as individuals." A fine book quarto in blue cloth color illustrations and photos throughout. In a near fine jacket with a nifty elegant hologram plate at center as you shift your perspective the image changes from a double helix to a bee foraging on flowers; it has a paper clip impression at the top of the rear panel. The letter is fine once folded in three. Knopf hardcover
193684921s. l. 1936. Fine. s. l. 1936 24 x 30 cm 38 photographies Set of 38 original photographs silver gelatin prints of the period in 24x30cm format depicting scenes from the filming of the movie. Le mort en fuite is a film by André Berthomieu assisted by André Zwobada with Carlo Rim as dialogue writer and adapter; the main roles were played by Michel Simon Jules Berry and Marie Glory. Here is the synopsis: Two mediocre actors from the ""Folies printanières"" Hector Trignol Jules Berry and Achille Baluchet Michel Simon invent an imaginary crime to gain publicity: Achille will pretend that he murdered Hector out of romantic rivalry and when the press seizes upon this news item the ""victim"" will reappear to exonerate Achille and make him a hero. For authenticity the two friends threaten each other in public and make noise in their room before Hector secretly leaves the building without being seen by the concierge. But contrary to what the two accomplices had imagined no one pays attention to Hector's disappearance and he grows impatient in his hideout in Brussels. He finally sends an anonymous letter to the Public Prosecutor to report the ""crime"" but despite Baluchet's efforts to make himself appear suspicious the investigators only believe in Trignol's ""disappearance"". It is then that the revue leader Myra supposedly the cause of the romantic rivalry between Baluchet and Trignol decides to profit from the latter's disappearance for her own publicity. Achille is finally arrested and in vain he proclaims his innocence first before the examining magistrate then before the criminal court. The verdict falls: he will be sentenced to capital punishment and his request for presidential pardon will be rejected. Meanwhile feeling watched Trignol has taken refuge in Berlin then in Warsaw where he was kidnapped because he is the double of Russian General Mikhaïl Popov. He will appear before a court martial and be sentenced to be shot. The set is presented in a cardboard box whose lid is missing. unknown

2632New York: Alfred A. Knopf 2004. First edition of this classic work. Octavo original illustrated wrappers. Signed by James Watson Andrew Berry and also signed by scientist Edward O. Wilson on the front free endpaper. In fine condition. A remarkable alignment of the planets is occurring in 2003: the 50th anniversary of the double helix and the completion of the sequence of the human genome. As a defining figure in both landmark events no other human being on the planet is positioned to write as authoritatively about all this as Jim Watson. In DNA: The Secret of Life he does so with characteristic clarity style and wit. If you really want to know what happened in the most important half-century of biology since the world began read this" Francis Collins. Alfred A. Knopf unknown

5845Livingston Montana Yellowstone National Park and other locales 1916-1918. Oblong 4to 7.5" x 11.25" flexible brown leather with embossed landscape scene on front cover cord ties at spine. 167 photographs mostly silver prints approx. 2.5" x 2" to 6" x 8" 7 images hand-tinted 2 photos laid-in; 2 photos dated 1916 in pencil in image another photo inscribed in ink "Bayonet Practice Camp Lewis 1918." Front paste-down inscription in white ink reading: "Joseph F. Scherieble Livingston Mont." Scherieble's ownership label on front paste-down as well. Some images captioned in white ink on the mount; a few photos with white ink borders. <p>An appealing album of 167 photos documenting the Livingston Montana scene and Yellowstone National Park as well as Wrangel Island Alaska; Petersburg Alaska; Seattle and Tacoma including photos taken at Camp Lewis a World War I training camp in Tacoma.</p> <br /> <br /> <p>Compiled by Joseph F. Scherieble 1895-1953 this album mainly consists of photos he apparently took himself on various outings and occasions. Included here are many lovely shots of wildlife in the region including white tailed deer antelope elk buffalo big horn sheep and bear. Also featured are fine images of landmarks in Yellowstone and the surrounding area including Tower Falls Grasshopper Glacier in Park County Montana "Lava Arch" Roosevelt Arch in Gardiner Hymen Terrace "Scenes on Emigrant Gulch" Yellowstone Falls Tower Falls Corwin Hot Springs Mt. Baldy Old Faithful and Old Faithful Camp moody views of the Yellowstone River at night and so forth. The subjects of the photos taken in Livingston include a train station a steam shovel the bridge across the Yellowstone River local characters friends and family. A few images show Scherieble and a group of men hunting. Several photos included here were taken by commercial photographers whose names and inventory numbers in the negative have been obliterated-apparently an attempt by Schereible to 'integrate' them. In one instance the name of Yellowstone photographer W. S. Berry can still be made out and a few other images included here were likely taken by him as well.</p> <br /> <br /> <p>Concluding the album are a number of images of west coast subjects all evidently taken when Schereible traveled that way to train at Camp Lewis. These include photos of Ballard Bridge in Seattle; Point Defiance Park Tacoma etc. as well as views taken at Wrangel Island and Petersburg Alaska. These shots are followed by forty-six images documenting Scherieble's time at Camp Lewis. Scherieble was evidently a graduate of Gonzaga University and had family in the Pacific Northwest.</p> <br /> <br /> <p>CONDITION: Very good minor wear to covers color-tinted photos faded occasional minor wear to photos discoloration to a few images.</p> Livingston, Montana, Yellowstone National Park, and other locales, 1916-1918 unknown
