Soft cover. Condizione: As New. Limited Edition. THE CRITICAL MESS is an illustrated compendium of articles by and about legendary collector of Americana Michael Zinman, with more than two dozen chapters, including "The Book Eater", Mark Singer's profile for the New Yorker ; essays by Bill Reese, James Green ; and much more. From the late 1970s onward, Mr. Zinman's collecting habits evolved into what he has called the critical mess theory of collecting : get enough examples of something and you can begin to see what patterns emerge. As James Green writes, "he set out, quite simply, to acquire every available early American imprint and to build a collection that would surpass all previous private holdings and all but the largest institutions." That extraordinary collection is now at the Library Company of Philadelphia. Mr. Zinman has subsequently formed many other extraordinary collections. Color illustrations throughout. 196 pp., 6 x 9 inches. As new in black wrappers. …

ZINMAN, Michael, editor. The American Bible. Original Leaves from Rare and Historic Bibles Printed in the Colonies and the United States During the Seventeenth, Eighteenth, and Nineteenth Centuries. Ardsley, N.Y., 1993. 38 leaves from bibles, matted, arranged in four cloth portfolio boxes, leather labels. Folio. Fine. From an edition limited to 100 sets. This landmark publication presents for the first time the history of the Bible in American through a display of thirty-eight original leaves from the most precious and significant editions of the Scriptures printed in the present geographical area of the United States. The bibles span a period of over 200 years, from 1663 to 1878. These beautiful pages are from the collection of the noted Americanist, Michael Zinman, who has selected them and written an explanatory text for each, and who provides a preface as well. Also included is an essay by Professor Mark A. Noll. The original leaves are divided into four groups: bibles in the languages of the natives of America, bibles in English from the 18th and 19th centuries(two portfolios), and bibles in other languages. The first portfolio contains eight leaves, including one from the first bible printed in America, translated into Massachusett(1663), usually called the Eliot Indian bible, and another from the second edition of 1685, as well as significant appearances in Mohawk, Hawaiian, Cherokee, and other languages. The second and third portfolios are the first illustrated bible printed in America(1791), one from Noah Webster's modernization of the bible in English (1833), one from the first Catholic Bible(1790), and one from the first publication of the new Testament in the Confederacy (1862). This section also contains many other important "firsts" relative to the appearance of the Holy Writ in America. The fourth portfolio contains ten leaves, including one from the first bible in German printed in America, by Christopher Saur(1743), and one from the first bible printed on paper manufactured in America (1763). Also represented here are the first bibles in Hebrew, French, Greek, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, and Swedish. The leaves, some of them containing illustrations, are suitable for framing or display, and are already appropriately matted. These unique leaves represent a significant aspect of the American heritage: the ro.…

The four portfolios contain leaves from 10 18th century Bibles in English, 10 19th century Bibles in English, eight Bibles in the languages of the native peoples of America, and 10 Bibles in other languages. Each Bible represented has an important place in the printing and cultural history of America.
