Contemporary blue morocco, with gold lettering and ruling to spine and front cover. Decorative endpapers. Title from the original front cover pasted onto fly leaf. Lavishly illustrated throughout with 97 in-text and full-page monochromes reproducing some of Henri Matisse's artwork, this double-issue of Christian Zervos' "Cahiers d'Art" is a splendid monograph on a major figure in modern art.

Description
This giant of the telecommunications world headed RCA (Radio Corporation of America) from 1919 to 1970 -- but began as a lowly Belarus immigrant office boy in 1907 with the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America in New York, working his way up the radio and television ladder. TLS, 1p, 8½" X 11", New York, NY, 1966 May 10. Addressed to Arnold F. Gates, Literary Editor of the Lincoln Herald (1914-93, noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar). Near fine. On "Radio Corporation of America" letterhead, Sarnoff discusses a biography of him that Eugene Lyons had authored: "Thanks you for your kind letter... and the reprint of your excellent review of my biography which appeared in the 'Lincoln Herald.' I am naturally pleased that you found the book so rewarding, and I appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing to me...." (Early in 1966 Harper & Row had published a book by Sarnoff's cousin Eugene Lyons, "David Sarnoff: A Biography.") Large bold signature in blue ink. Accompanied by a fine glossy 9" X 7" black and white news agency photograph (International News Photos), a candid closeup of Sarnoff smiling alongside a beauty contestant winner. Caption at bottom, which dates this 23 April 1956, describes the scene: "David Sarnoff, RCA chairman and chairman of the National Security Training Commission, names Barbara Lyman, Washington Cherry Blossom Queen, an honorary colonel in the Washington Army Reserve at a kick-off luncheon for military reserve week.

Smith or "Lon Smith" was the author of many books on hunting and shooting, including Modern Shotgun Shooting, Shotgun Psychology, and Modern Gun Dogs.

The illustrator, Paul Brown, was one of the great artists of outdoor life, especially equestrian pursuits. His illustrations appear in many Derrydale Press publications, and he was an illustrator for the catalogues of Brooks Brothers. Clean and sound, in publisher's tan/gray cloth. In an unclipped dust jacket titled in red and black on flecked paper. Fine. Inscribed in ink by the author on the half-title, "Happy shooting days, sincerely, Lawrence B. Smith, '46", and additionally signed by Paul Brown in pencil.
