200219023Philadelphia: Pond Press 2002. First edition. Paperback. Fine. Square 8vo. Pictorial wraps. Near fine with touches of wear and some faint sunning to spine. Else tight and sharp. <br/><br/>Scarce first edition of this remarkable exhibition catalog of Graham's photos of the Kellams a couple who lived alone in a tiny house in remote corner of Maine. Nicols provides a remarkable essay exploring why a couple would remove themselves so completely from society: "Forty years of solitude.of winter storms and late springs and hungry mosquitos.of canned sardines.of reading to each other." Indeed for book lovers a particularly engrossing portrait of bibliophilia with numerous images of the couples' books and library. This catalog was to lead to a two-page article in the New York Times on Feb. 13th 2003 which itself led to the sale of all available copies of this remarkable collection. It remains scarce to this day. A 2007 reprint of this book by Boxed Books includes all the same images but substitutes Fox's essay with the NYT article. Pond Press paperback books

One of forty copies of this rare catalogue in the deluxe presentation binding. Fox Strangways 1847-1905 possessed a vast collection of family portraits and Old Master paintings spread across a house in London at 42 Belgrave Square and three country houses Melbury House and Abbotsbury Castle in Dorset and Redlynch House in Wiltshire. The catalogue was compiled by his mother Amelia Fox Strangways. The 4th Earl William Thomas-Horner Fox Strangways 1795-1865 uncle of the 5th Earl and a prominent diplomat was posted throughout Europe most notably Italy where he was an early proponent of artists from the period of Giotto and Cimabue. Despite his enormous contributions to the family collection the 4th Earl's name is curiously not found in this catalogue. In 1913 a fire destroyed Abbotsbury Castle and its contents making this an essential record of that part of the collection. Many of the paintings purchased by the 4th Earl were bequeathed to Christ Church Oxford and to the Ashmolean Museum. The catalogue lists 352 paintings arranged by house then by room. Many have lengthy descriptions about the artists and provenance. Fine copy lacking the errata slip. unknown books
