Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition ( 'First Printed 1970'). Jacket illustration of Chelsea Reach by Walter Greaves. As you can see from the photos, the blue covers are very clean and in top-notch condition. I don't see any wear on any of the six edges or four corners. The gilt and red lettering and design on the spine is very bright. The book is square, not slanted, and very solidly bound from cover to cover. The pages are in excellent condition. In scrolling through, I didn't see any soiling at all. There is a little toning at some of the margins of the glossy mapped inside covers and end papers, very minor. I didn't see any creasing on any of the pages. No dogeared corners. There aren't any markings. No attachments. On the half-title page a Katharine Steckley or Stickley has neatly penned her name as well as the date, February 1972. One might have expected that she had something to do with the book. She may have, but I didn't find her name in the index or elsewhere. I didn't try very hard so maybe there's a connection. Or maybe she was simply a previous owner. Either way, there is no other writing to be found anywhere in the book. There is a full-page color frontispiece and there are 25 black and white illustrations. They all appear to be in excellent condition. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. It is in very good condition. It is very clean. It has a few tiny scuffs at the corners, one a bit larger at the bottom edge of the spine. The flaps are solid and clean. They do have toning at the top and bottom margins, and the top corner of the front flap is price-clipped. The jacket will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. 'Chelsea was the artists' quarter of London for a century. In its climate, boys like Walter and Henry Greaves apprenticed in their father's boatyard, began to draw and paint Riverside scenes, primitive and untaught. To its bohemianism, a refugee from 1860's upper-middle-class stuffiness, came Whistler, an astonishing new influence, whose pupil and friend Walter Greaves became. For years the friendship prospered; then came Whistler's resentment, the rejection of Greaves, and enter Oscar Wilde. Later, amazingly, came sudden fame for Walter Greaves, followed by denunciations and a scandal, caused by a muddle, or was it a plot (?) about the origin of certain pictures: who painted which? It is a fascinating story, told out of a deep knowledge of its background.'.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Jacket and illustrations after L. S. Lowry (illustratore). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly rubbed, some faint scratches to mid front jacket, price clipped and price replaced with publisher's sticker (£8.95), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 337pp, illustrated, illustrated endpapers. British journalist, tv presenter and biographer Shelley Rohde (1933-2007), moved to Manchester in the 1960s as a reporter for the Daily Mail and a presenter on Granada Television. She began to investigate the local artist L. S. Lowry (Laurence Stephen Lowry, 1877-1976), and was eventually to become an acknowledged expert on him. Her documentary on him, 'L.S. Lowry: A Private View', was made after she had interviewed the artist personally, which she did several times during his later life. This was in itself an achievement, given that Lowry was known to be difficult to pin down to an interview appointment and to any clear content and was inclined to amuse himself by making up stories. He first told Rohde he had given up painting long ago, but it was noticed that the paint on a canvas was wet. It later became the basis for this book.
