See Nicolas Barker's appreciative obituary in the Independent, 7 April 1999, which notes that after selling his entire stock to the University of Texas in 1968, 'He moved his business to the other side of Great Russell Street, and briefly opened another shop, selling prints in partnership with Rob Douwma.' (The British Museum website states that 'Weinreb & Douwma was on the corner of Great Russell Street and Bloomsbury Way during the 1970s and 1980s.') The obituary of the recipient Andrew Block (1892-1987) in 'The Private Library' was subtitled 'the doyen of booksellers'; his business was established in 1911. An attractive piece of printing, as befits a printseller, and a nice piece of London ephemera, as befits the first editor of the London encyclopedia. Printed in black and red on 15 x 10.5 cm bifoliate card. In fair condition, a little grubby and lightly worn. Nicely designed with effective use of blank space. The cover has a Monty Pythonesque couple of overweight and overaged cherubs, clanking tankards of ale over head as they skip towards the outer margin, trailing cloth to preserve their modesty. Above them, printed in red: 'Weinreb + Douwma invite you'. The only other printing on the card is the continuation of this message, also in red, across the head of the central opening: 'to celebrate the opening of the new shop on Monday 26 January 1970 from 6 to 8 pm at 93 Great Russell Street London WC1 telephone 01-636 4895 | RSVP'. Beneath this, on the recto of the second leaf, Weinreb writes in his stylized hand: 'Would be glad / if you could come / Ben'. From the papers of the eminent London bookseller Andrew Block of Barter Street (established 1911). See image.…

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 327 pages. Published in 1984. Collection of "private eye" thriller/mystery short stories. The single most important - and most beautiful - book ever published by The Mysterious Press in the 20th century. Deluxe Slipcased Edition of 26 lettered and signed copies. Should not be confused with the Limited Edition of 250 numbered and signed copies. Although the books are exactly the same, the labelling of the Deluxe Edition with the Roman alphabet instead of Roman numerals is not arbitrary, and is clearly intended to distinguish between the two, the Roman-Lettered copies being obviously much fewer in number therefore more collectible. This is a distinction that the publisher has continued to this day. An austerely elegant production by The Mysterious Press: Regular-sized volume format. Black cloth boards with gilt titles embossed on the spine, as issued. Short stories by sixteen major contributors. In sequence: Lawrence Block, Max Allan Collins, Michael Collins, Loren D. Estleman, Stephen Greenleaf, Edward D. Hoch, Richard Hoyt, Stuart M. Kaminsky, Rob Kantner, Michael Z. Lewin, John Lutz, Marcia Muller, William F. Nolan, Sara Paretsky, Bill Pronzini, and L. J. Washburn. ALL of these writers are now established names of the genre. Some of them are "Permanent Members" of the thriller/mystery canon. Matching cloth slipcase. Printed on archival stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents, in its ultimate collectible format, "The Eyes Have It: The First Private Eye Writers of America Anthology". The ground-breaking and single most valuable thriller/mystery anthology of its kind ever published in our time. Reaffirms the pleasures one gets from reading "gumshoe" narratives, a popular art whose greatest writers enjoy canonical status. "Provides a combination of intellectual engagement, escapism, and satisfying resolutions. Readers are drawn to the puzzle-solving aspect, allowing them to be active participants in a story. Additionally, the genre offers a safe way to experience suspense and explore dark or taboo subjects from a secure distance. Finally, the genre often delivers a satisfying conclusion, where a crime is solved and order is restored, even in more ambiguous sub-genres like noir". The essence of cinema is suspense, which is why Alfred Hitchcock is, arguably, the greatest film director of the 20th century: He re-defined the film medium in the terms these writers developed and mastered. Notably, Rob Kantner ("Alfred Hitchcock Presents"), who wrote for him extensively. An absolute "must-have" title for thriller-mystery collectors. This is a copy of the Deluxe Slipcased Edition of 26 Roman Lettered copies: Letter "F". It is very prominently and beautifully signed in various ink and fountain pens on the Back Limitation Page by ALL of the writers and Editor Robert J. Randisi. This title is a great book. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Deluxe Edition available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Should NOT be confused with the Limited Edition of 250 numbered copies, which was issued simultaneously. A rare signed copy thus. Some of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine collectible copy. Signed by Author(s).…
