Fine in very good slipcase
Description
San Francisco: Arion Press, 2002. Hardcover. Fine in very good slipcase. Hardcover. Number 174 of 400 numbered copies for sale, with 26 lettered copies printed for complimentary distribution. This is a beautiful production of Milton's immortal work. The printer Andrew Hoyem writes that this edition pays typographic tribute to two earlier editions of Milton's epic poem: the second edition of 1674, the year of Milton's death, and the second Baskerville edition of 1759, which Hoyem owned and long admired. This edition is presented without explanatory footnotes and omits the Barrow and Marvell poems. However, the earlier examples of textual scholarship prompted the press to obtain a new textual version and to provide an introduction written especially for this edition by the renowned scholar Helen Vendler that offers a fresh perspective on the work. Miltonist John T. Shawcross developed a modernized text. Bound in black cloth with a brown leather spine label with titling in gilt. Light sunning to spine and label. Printed Goudy Text and Baskerville types on special wove paper made for the press by the Zerkall mill in Germany. The arrangement of pages emulates those of the Baskerville edition but with significant differences as described in the colophon. Housed in a black cloth slipcase with a purple leather title label to spine. With a fleur de lis design on the front cover in light purple. Slipcase has evidence of handling and a shallow bump to the top edge. Overall in about fine condition in a very good slipcase. Does not include prospectus or portfolio. Measures 6 7/8 inches by 10 inches. 397 pages including colophon. PRI/111324.

Pasadena, CA: Pasadena Community Information Center, [197-]. 26p., 8.5x11 inch photoreproduced pages stapled at corner, some foxing, toning, and edgewear. Unsure if this was the original form in which this document was circulated, or if this is a photocopy of the official version. Not found in OCLC or elsewhere as of March 2025. This draft was among the books in the library of Irwin Silber and Barbara Dane. "The Pasadena Community Information Center (P.C.I.C.) is a Black Revolutionary cadre Organization. We utilize Dialectical Materialism as our scientific method of analysis, and Marxist-Leninist principles in order to change (completely transform) present social/ economic conditions in society. We have chosen (as a result of our investigation and study) a Non-Aligned stance as the most affective way of lending to a more objective condition for analysis. We also see that the only way to have successful socialist revolution, is to see the objective links between the Labor movement and the Community, consolidated by a revolutionary party. In reference to Women and Third World people (particularly Black) we will address these aspects, in relationship to non-alignment in our final draft. This paper has been written to bring out, and elaborate on some of the problems of unity within the left. To put forward various suggestions of resolution. And to fully point out the importance of a Non-aligned stance as the leading force in resolving these problems.
