Description
8 pp. 8vo, 19th-cent. marbled boards (joints restored), spine gilt. Paris: Poultier & Constantin, 1807. The rare sale catalogue, fully priced in a contemporary hand, of Louis François Prault (1734-1806), ancien Imprimeur du Roi and son of the great publisher and bookseller Laurent François (1712-80). Prault’s firm printed many auction catalogues in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Because of the Constantins relationship with the Prault family, who printed almost all of their sale catalogues, either Guillaume Jean Constantin or his son, Amédée, was the expert for this sale. The present catalogue describes Prault’s choice collection of paintings (by Greuze, Lancret, Teniers, Wijnants, van Goyen, etc.), drawings (by Titian, Caravaggio, Panini, Le Sueur, Cochin, etc.), as well as sculpture and ceramics. There is a total of 63 lots, all priced. Very good and uncut copy. Engraved bookplate of Georges Pannier (1853-1944), the Parisian art dealer, and stamp of the Bibliothèque Heim on verso of title-page. ❧ Lugt 7183.

Description
New York: Dramatists Play Service, Inc.. Near Fine. (c.1937). Unstated edition. Softcover. [nice clean copy with minor external wear and one slightly scrunched lower page corner]. (B&W photo frontispiece, stage diagram) A comedy, set on a Connecticut farm, that had a brief (65 performances) run on Broadway in the spring of 1937, and then seems to have become (at least temporarily) a staple of various summer-stock companies. (The topliners of the N.Y. production were Linda Watkins, Kenneth MacKenna, and Irene Purcell.) According to a contemporary newspaper review, the play "tells the story of the mousey-like wife of a celebrated playwright who, though seemingly helpless against the philandering impulses of her husband, none the less has a strength, wit and capability greater than others suspect her of, and ably keeps her husband in line." The playwright's only other notable credit seems to have been an adaptation of the Christopher Morley novel "Thunder on the Left," which had an even shorter Broadway run in late 1933. .
