Très beau dessin par un maître du genre. "Mark Miller, born Marshall Dawson Miller, was an internationally renowned illustrator whose work was published in most of the world. His life and career took him from Oklahoma to Hollywood to New York and Europe. Born in Eldorado, Oklahoma on Jan. 2, 1919, Miller grew up on a cotton farm, studied art at the University of Oklahoma (where he took the name Mark) and then moved to Los Angeles where he attended the Chouinard Art Institute and later got his start as a costume designer for 20th Century Fox in Hollywood. After WW II, he moved to New York where he had a had a long career as an artist that culminated in the 1950s and 60s when he was an illustrator for the Saturday Evening Post and other leading magazines like Colliers, Good Housekeeping, McCall’s, Redbook, Cosmopolitan and many magazines throughout Europe, South America and Australia. In describing the humble beginnings of his career, Miller has said, “My choice of an art career did not have the enthusiastic support of my conservative family back in OK. From their point of view, it was clearly my duty as the eldest son to help run the family farms, and they tolerated my errant pursuit of art only in the certainty that it would become as clear to me as it was to them that I couldn’t make a living at it.

1966AMO-3418Très beau dessin original signé par Angelo Di Marco (DiMarco) Grand format dessin 29 x 21 cm environ sur carton 32,5 x 22,5 cm Signé à l'encre en bas dans le dessin en bas "A. Di Marco" Sujet : scène romantique d'amour entre un homme et une femme, dans la nature Dessin original exécuté pour un roman-photos publié dans le programme TV Télé Poche n°13 (numéro du 6 avril 1966 - première année de parution de ce périodique pour la télévision) Annotations au bas et en marge supérieure du dessin et au verso (voir photos). Très beau dessin par un maître du genre Angelo Di Marco (1927-2016) est connu et reconnu pour son talent d'illustrateur. Biographie résumée de l'artiste (source Wikipédia) : Angelo Di Marco, né le 10 juillet 1927 à Paris1 et mort le 21 décembre 2016 dans la même ville2, est un dessinateur de presse et de bandes dessinées français, surtout connu pour ses illustrations de faits diversréalisées pour certains grands journaux (tels que France-Soir, Radar, Détective ou encore France Dimanche). Angelo Di Marco commence d’abord à réaliser des illustrations de faits divers3 dans les années 1950. Il se forge alors une réputation d'illustrateur réaliste confirmé, parfois même qualifié d'hyperréaliste. Obtenant une certaine notoriété, il publie dans Bravo puis dans Le Parisien libéré sa première bande dessinée : Capitaine Ardent. Puis il crée en 1960 Ivanhoé dans Télé 7 Jours suivi du Petit Shérif et des Trois Mousquetaires. À la fin des années 1960, il reprend dans Pif Gadget le personnage de Nasdine Hodja, scénarisé par Roger Lécureux, à la suite de Pierre Leguen et Roger Bastard. À partir du n° 1257 (Pif Gadget n° 19) L’insaisissable prend la mouche 20 planches du 5 juillet 1969 au n° 1407 (Pif Gadget n° 169), La pastèque creuse 20 planches de mai 1972. Ce sont les aventures picaresques d'un Robin des bois oriental, qui se joue des califes et autres pachas, avec beaucoup de ruses et de tours divers. Il dessina 16 récits complets et mena cette belle série, née en 1946 dans Vaillant, à son terme... Il est surtout connu pour ses unes de l'hebdomadaire de faits divers Détective. Elles étaient affichées dans les kiosques à journaux pour annoncer les nouveaux numéros, et il y dessinait, avec son style très réaliste, l'ultime moment avant le crime : « La nature même de mes dessins protège la victime », déclara-t-il avec humour « puisque j’arrête le geste du meurtrier juste avant qu’il ne se produise. La victime reste ainsi sauve pour la postérité ». En 1959, un de ses dessins, fait et refait dans ses moindres détails avec un témoin, la voisine de palier de la victime, constitue même un remarquable portrait-robot et permet à la police d'identifier le meurtrier4. Dans les années 1990, il poursuit sa carrière avec Arthur et Stéphane, Yankee et l'adaptation de la série télévisée K 2000. Il publie également des bandes dessinées érotiques, sous le pseudonyme d'Arcor5, dans Bédéadult' tels que Dr. Sex et Pot Bouille.

1909004967Paris Galeries Georges Petit 1909 In-4 Broché Edition originale
A most unique 29 page volume of poetry including such titles as: Old Folks Alone; The Nomad (which appears beneath the book's only illustration, that of a middle aged couple); The Isle of Dreams; The Immigrant's Return; Satisfied; The Prospector; and many others. Author's signature inside front cover. Several handwritten corrections to contents may be those of the author. Several poems have different poems pasted on top of them. Thus, this volume may in fact be a draft copy. Pasted inside the back cover is a most amusing work entitled "A Close Call" - an Australian Idyl, which describes the Widow McPhee's near-seduction of the writer whilst he was camped out beneath a 'monster blue-gum tree' in sunny New South Wales. Wholesale peeling to inside of front cover suggests a pasted down poem has been removed. We note passing references to the Yukon, prospecting, and the lanes of Devon. Undated - circa 1950?. Very well worn but holding together. Book
