1983CAT0129BNew York: Gay Men's Health Crisis Inc 1983. Poster 35 x 23 inches. Poersch Enno. A scarce poster for an important early AIDS benefit one of the first AIDS benefits organized by GMHC taking place a few months earlier than the Rodeo event. GHMC bought all of the tickets from Barnum and Bailey and sold them off for donation prices ranging from $10 to $500. All 17600 seats sold out. Leonard Bernstein conducted the circus orchestra in a rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" which Larry Kramer GMHC founder and playwright described as "one of the most moving moments he had ever experienced." David Roman in Acts of Intervention: Performance Gay Culture and AIDS describes the event as "unquestionably the most galvanizing early AIDS fundraiser." The event did much to change attitudes about the crisis though the event was not covered by The New York Times or other mainstream media outlets. Enno Poersch designed the poster. Quite scarce with no examples shown in OCLC. Some light wear excellent condition overall. Gay Men's Health Crisis, Inc unknown books

Poster for The World's Toughest Rodeo AIDS Benefit Madison Square Garden October 1st 1983

1983CAT0129ANew York: Gay Men's Health Crisis Inc 1983. First Edition. Posterboard 36 x 23 inches. Poersch Enno. A promotional poster for an early AIDS benefit at Madison Square Garden sponsored by the Gay Men's Health Crisis organization. GMHC which still exists played a very important role in raising awareness for the epidemic in its early years in New York City. The group first met in 1982 in the apartment of playwright Larry Kramer. Enno Poersch one of the group's founding members designed this poster. GMHC was one of the earliest organizations to distribute information about the disease. In 1982 they organized "Showers: A Benefit to Aid Gay Men with Kaposi's Sarcoma and Other Gay Related Immunodeficiencies." A Barnum and Bailey Circus benefit and the World's Toughest Rodeo event followed in 1983. The owner of World's Toughest Rodeo a traditional rodeo which had a normal primary sponsor of Miller Beer sold the show to the GHMC without realizing it would be an AIDS Benefit. After the show's owner panicked - he was worried about offending his conservative fanbase - the benefit was referred to only as "The Rodeo." The rest of the ads for the event outside of the New York City metropolitan area showed the traditional advertisement listing Miller as the show's primary sponsor. A fine example quite scarce. OCLC lists two copies with a third shown in the University of Rochester's special collections. Gay Men's Health Crisis, Inc unknown books

This copy formerly in the Shirburn Castle library of The Earl of Macclesfield their North Library bookplate marked '1.H.57'. In 2006 sold at Sothebys London 11 April 2006 lot 2312. Fifth folio edition of the Latin Bible as Biblia Utriusque Testamenti published by Robert Estienne 15031559 in 1556 but with the original edition of the new Latin translation and commentary on the New Testament by Theodore Beza 15191605; notably this edition appeared contemporaneously with the printing of John Calvins Psalms Commentary. Theodore Beza a French Reformed Protestant theologian and Calvinist produced one Latin and four Greek-Latin editions of the New Testament in his lifetime working carefully through extant Greek manuscript sources. Estiennes great glossed Latin Bible of 1556/57 thus contained the translation of the Old Testament by Dominican philologist Sante Pagnini or Pagninus 14701536 first printed in 1528. Based on the Hebrew Pagninis text is in the center of each page and Bezas translation from the Greek is in smaller type to the side with commentary and alternate readings underneath. The Estienne-Beza Latin Bible with its copious notes and ties to Calvinist theology was of considerable importance in the early modern era. The 20 woodcut biblical illustrations were first used in an Estienne edition of the Bible printed in Paris in 1540. This copy beautifully bound in a Dutch vellum enjoyed placement in one of the finest libraries in Britain from around the mid-18th century. See also Renouard 'Estienne' p. 87; cf.

Chastel Roger. Pochoir colored by Jean SaudeABAA

Le Trust des Perles Deauville 1921

1921006579Chez Jacoub Aulard & Cie. 1921. Limp Card. Paper pastedown on card. . Very Good. No. 58 of 300 copies on "Grande Fibre de Bambou de Cochin-Chine". Folio 38 cm square. 24 pochoir plates 3 of which are double pages with a brief introductory page and a limitation page at the end. Scarce with only two institutional holdings reflected on OCLC First Search both in France. Caricatures bear a superficial resemblance to those of Sem. The subject matter -- the rich pampered louche effete -- come in for gentle drubbing by both artists. But Chastel's caricatures strike us as more cutting edge more modernist and compositionally quite virtuosic in the manner that they can somehow incorporate cubist aesthetics all the time rendering likenesses that we suspect would have been instantly recognizable by contemporaries. And without being strictly speaking realistic Chastel recreates convincingly the atmosphere and spirit of scenes depicted. This being an album about the fashionable channel resort of Deauville we here are shown people at the gaming tables at the race track sur la plage and engaged in drinking dancing smoking and almost always peacocking -- looking to see and be seen! Condition: chipping of the paper along the spine as virtually inevitable given the material. Light soiling on the paper pastedown. Some gentle edge creasing of the leaves within a result of their not having the the exact same measurements and their never having been together. Chez Jacoub Aulard & Cie. books
