Description:
Portland, OR: Collectors Press,U.S. 2005. 4to. 188 pp, illustrated. Beautifully photographed, rare, and valuable, these nutcrackers from around the world are collected and celebrated in one place for the first time ever. What began as an innocent purchase during a production of the Nutcracker Ballet has blossomed into a world-renowned collection almost 40 years in the making. Arlene Wagner (also known as The Nutcracker Lady) and her husband have amassed more than 5,000 pieces. Housed in the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum, which is also a National Heritage Foundation site, the Wagner's collection is on display to the public. A status sign for royalty and the wealthy in sixteenth-century Europe, delicately carved, ornate pieces were intended more for show than for function, while simple, sturdy designs reflect the basic utilitarian nature of nutcrackers. 1933112085 . Fine. Hardcover. 2005.

Description:
Hong Kong, Oxford, New York: Oxford University Press 1989. Oblong FolioLimited Edition. Eastern binding, with tissue guarded plates. The ancient Chinese philosopher, Chuang Tze, sought in his writings to explain the relationship between man and nature. In particular, his short treatise, "Autumn Floods", dealt with the nature of infinity, by means of a dialogue between river and sea. The photographer Peter Yung has produced a photographic interpretation of Chuang Tze's ideas, which juxtaposes Chuang Tze's text, both in Chinese and English, with a series of aerial photographs. These photographs were taken over a period of 13 years, and involved travel to Irian Jaya, Thailand, the South Pacific, Nepal, Europe, North America, China and Japan. This is a heavy item and may require additional postage if being shipped outside of Europe. 0195851706 . Fine. Hard Cover. 1989.
