Description:
Bombay: Vakil & Sons (Private) Ltd., [ca. 1967].. Small folio. Plain wrapper, with typesetter's rubber stamps. Corners dog eared and downturned, a few chips and tears. Very good for the cumbersome format. Uncorrected page proofs of the first edition. Evidently the master set of galleys, with numerous corrections and revisions throughout in an unknown hand, perhaps editorial, perhaps authorial.

Description:
Moscow, 1956.. Original one-sheet size Russian film poster (104 x 65 cm; 25.75 x 40.5"). Old folds, one short edge break at one fold, otherwise very good. An original highly pictorial poster for the 1956 Russian release of the 1955 Mexican film, ESPALDAS MOJADAS [i.e. WET BACKS]. The feature length b&w Spanish language film was an ATA production, both written and directed by Alejandro Galindo. The cast included David Silva, Victor Parra, Martha Valdes, Oscar Pulido and Pedro Vargas. The film garnered three 1956 Ariel Awards, including a Special Award for the Film of Greatest National Interest. It is a melodramatic depiction of the extreme hardships endured by illegal emigrants to the United State while crossing the Rio Grande - including many being shot and killed by guards on the US side - and while working and traveling in the US without papers. The protagonist eventually returns across the Rio Grande and is shot and wounded, but does make his way home. The film was released in Mexico on 16 June…

Description:
Paris: Imp. Lemercier [for:] Librairie Nouvelle, [nd. but ca. 1850s].. 19 plates and 18 plates. Loose sheets. Images, including captions, ca. 27 x 18.5 cm. Margins vary. Some creasing to the larger margins, two plates exhibit foxing and a couple more show some slight marginal tanning, otherwise very good or better. Decent representation of two of the sub- elements of Gavarni's extended work, which when completed, included 329 lithographic plates. The first element lacks plate 1 of the twenty published, and the second lacks plates 4 and 5 of twenty published (duplicates of 2 and 7 are also present, but not included in the count above). Ray treats the series at some length, describing Thomas Virelogue as "one of Gavarni's most brilliant inspirations," and the work as a whole as "a neglected masterpiece of nineteenth-century French graphic art." RAY (ART OF THE FRENCH ILLUSTRATED BOOK) 157.

London: Printed by Thomas Harrison [later: Edward Johnston] in Warwick Lane, 2/5 January to 25/28 December 1790.. A slightly broken run of over 90 issues encompassing (with exceptions noted below) whole numbers 13163 through 13268. Small folio. Chiefly 4 or 8pp per number.

Shortly after the Court returned to London, beginning with whole number 24, the name was altered to reflect the change, and it persisted through the following centuries as the publisher of official information in regard to politics, business, public notices, elections…

Various places, 1962 - 1970.. Seven items. Printed wrappers, self-wrappers and tear sheets. One has a mended tear, two on newsprint creased and uniformly tanned, generally good to very good. The majority relate to Geismar's work on Henry James. One item is present in duplicate, and all are warmly inscribed by the author to John Howard Griffin (author of BLACK LIKE ME, and much else). Geismar was one of Griffin's earliest literary champions, singling out his first novel, THE DEVIL RIDES OUTSIDE, as one of the most accomplished American novels of its era, and became a close friend and correspondent. Geismar's important essay on Griffin appears in AMERICAN MODERNS FROM REBELLION TO CONFORMITY (1958).
