Ephemera. Condizione: Very Good. A small archive of works by Michele Andree Guy: "La France Contemporaine," in French, 9 leaves (208 x 270 mm), typed on the recto only and bound with a clasp at top corner; "Alphonse de Chateaubriant, Romancier," in French, 11 leaves (208 x 270 mm), typed on the recto only and staple-bound at the top corner; and the translation into English of "Alphonse," 11 leaves (203 x 328 mm, lined paper), handwritten in black ink on the recto only, with corrections in ink and pencil, staple-bound at tope corner. All in excellent condition, some light wrinkling or flattened creases along the edges, nowhere infringing upon text. Alphonse de Chateaubriant was a prize-winning French novelist who became an ardent supporter of Nazism after a trip to Germany in 1935. The essay included here focuses on his writing (making no mention of his abhorent political beliefs), and a pencil notation indicates that it may have been a submission to the Bermondsey Book literary magazine, edited by Frederick Heath and published December 1923 to May 1930. However, we find no record of publication.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 33 typed pages with 21 good quality original ink drawings and lettering around the text. (10.5 x 8.3 inches). Watercolour illustration mounted to the front cover with blank ink drawings and lettering surrounding it. Some wear to the paper covered boards and chipping to the paper on the spine. Pages a bit loose but still all attached to the binding. An interesting self issued magazine with a very personal 6 page article of the writer?s impressions of a trip to London, plus puzzles, letters, poems and stories, each with original ink illustrations. Page 2 has a list of the magazine subscribers with dates they are allowed to borrow and read, and then pass to the next person. An interesting mix of articles and the standard of the accompanying artworks are generally very high. I can find no mention of this magazine anywhere so don?t know who produced it, where it was issued, although a few references to Cambridge and the University may give some clues, or how many numbers it ran for, but is is a charming and well produced volume.…

Souvenir typescript excerpt from chapter one of the great satirical novel Catch-22, beginning: "It was love at first sight. The first time Yossarian saw the chaplain he fell madly in love with him." signed by Heller in black ballpoint pen. Catch-22 is a satirical war novel by American author Joseph Heller. It is his debut novel. He began writing it in 1953, and the book was first published in 1961. Often cited as one of the most significant novels of the 20th century, it uses a distinctive non-chronological third-person omniscient narration, describing events from the points of view of different characters. The separate storylines are out of sequence so the timeline develops along with the plot. The novel satirizes military bureaucracy and greed. Condition: Some staining to cloth along top edge and at foot of spine. Jacket lightly rubbed with a few small tears along edges, some with tape repairs to reverse, small puncture to back panel at fold else very good in like jacket housed in custom orange-brown marbled cloth clamshell box.

A 1936 unauthorized edition, limited to 50 copies, had been published with a double M in Somerset on the title page, as seen in this printer's dummy. My South Sea Island was originally published in "The Daily Mail" in London in 1922. The unauthorized edition had been destroyed but for two copies, due to the spelling error in the author's name, and was reprinted immediately. All pages pasted to paper with spots from glue showing along corners. Printed plate of page 4 loose but intact and present. [WITH] Abramson's three page typed rendering entitled "Hell's Paving Stones," describing a conversation between Maugham and himself on collecting in general, and Maugham's publications in magazines in particular. Maugham had forgotten where he had published "My South Sea Island," and misplaced his own typescript of it. Abramson eventually located the piece in a 1921 issue of The Daily Mail. No copies of the issue were available and requested Photostats were defective. As a result Abramson decided to print it himself and contacted his printer. The following one and a half pages reflect a conversation between Abramson's printer and the "publisher." The final paragraph describes the surprise discovering that Somerset was spelled with two Ms in the first 50 copies printed. Abramson closes with "And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how I came to write "The Raven."

Thick 4to. [4], viii, [1], 201 leaves, including several large folding hand-coloured manuscript tables, charts, diagrams (old scotch tape at folds as originally prepared). Green cloth, gilt lettering stamped on front cover (minor edgewear, rubbing), VG exemplar. An intriguing unpublished typescript manuscript of the American labor movement, focusing on the forces that effected the labor movement's growth, and analyzing those forces or factors. The author felt that not enough efforts had been made historically prior to World War II on applying the science of statistical analysis to labor unions, their membership, and the potential impacts on the economic life of the United States. In addition, he employs statistical analysis of the union membership by many different unions, trades, and occupations, in order to measure the strength of the labor movement, reducing dependence on the analysis of strike frequency, threats of strikes, elections, or other factors which can be indeterminate. Although he does draw upon the work of Barnett, "Growth of Labor Organization in the United States, 1897-1914," and Wolman "The Growth of American Trade Unions, 1880-1923," Current believed their numbers were flawed in the 19th Century, and includes a substantial statistical analysis of how he corrects those numbers, as well as those from other historical sources. Of additional interest are the two critical letters bound into the volume, with the first from famed Wisconsin labor historian Selig Perlman (1888-1959) which notes that Current "is entitled to credit for ingenuity, industry, and optimism. The valuable part of the manuscript is the statistical one. . . and full credit for debunking some of the loose estimates of membership at the peaks of 1836 and 1872." Perlman himself has received recently significant criticism regarding his racist views and limited understanding of the evolution of the labor movement which did not try to include race, status, ethnicity, or other sociological factors. Perlman's letter The second from W.D. Knight, notes that Current's study may impede on work underway for publication by Professor Moberly. Current (1923-2013), received his BA from the University of Wisconsin, later worked for Kennedy Economic Development in Oregon, and aided the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, wrote on the conditions of migrant workers in the Willamette Valley in the 1950s, and authored several works on philately and stamp cancels.…
