Very Good Indeed
Description
Signed & Inscribed First Edition, First State copy, a presentation copy, by the internationally famed director to noted Polish writer/director Jerzy Skolimowski, writer of Polanski's breakthrough film, KNIFE IN THE WATER. Much better than very good copy, slightly foxed to topedge leaves, in like dust jacket showing light wear and a modicum of stain to spine & back panel, not affecting the author portrait. This copy is a rarity indeed: it bears a full-page inscription by Polanski in Polish to Skolimowski (translation provided by him on a laid-in sheet). In blue ink: "Romek. So you see what is happening / I am signing my biography to you / And it is in English / You could not have foreseen this / during those hot evenings / on Narutowicra Street / when you were served / fruit juices by Kuba / Love/ R." Signature a rarity today, highly sought after; an inscription by him, particularly one with this degree of meaning & history, in such an association on a presentation copy, is an extraordinary uniquity.

Description
Paris: D. de Selliers, 2006. Hardcover. VG, slight rub marks on covers, sticker residue inside endpaper.. Blue cloth covers, gilt lettering. 1 v. (382 pp.): coul. illustrations. This book brings together 110 poems from the 12th to the 15th century that constitute a remarkable part of our literary heritage. A libretto reproduces these poems in their original language: Oc language, oïl language and middle French. Guillaume IX, Arnaut Daniel, Colin Muset, Rutebeuf, Adam de la Halle, Guillaume de Machaut, Christine de Pizan, Charles d'Orléans, François Villon, more than fifty poets represent the four founding centuries of our poetry. From the delicacy of the first love songs to the refinement of the ballads, this book reveals a universe endowed with unexpected emotional strength and freedom of mind. In his preface, Michel Zink, a member of the Institute and a professor at the Collège de France, shows how these four centuries of medieval lyricism, full of love, resonates with the shimmering art of the extreme end of the Middle Ages. From precious manuscripts made mainly in the 14th and 15th centuries, 200 works accompany the 110 poems. They reinforce the allegorical universe of poets by the fine contours, the brilliance of the colors, mixing flamboyant Gothic and courteous refinement. Bartholomew of Eyck, Jean Fouquet, the brothers of Limburg, Simon Marmoin, Robinet Testard are among the great masters. Beyond an original iconographic repertoire - Deduce gardens, castles of Love, offerings of heart - these paintings bear witness to the creativity and talent of artists of the Middle Ages. This book combines the emotion of poetry with the riches of medieval painting.

Description
1920. Ephemera. Very Good. Brochure [18 cm x 15 cm; 9 cm x 15 cm folded] Illustrated self wraps. Very lightly creased. Brief contemporary notation (dated "1920") in pencil on the front wrap. At the time, George Relf was Manager, and Wesley Austin was Assistant Manager. "For seventy-six years the Hotel Utah presided as 'the Grande Dame of Hotels' in the Intermountain West and was internationally recognized for its elegance and extraordinary service. Called 'the Hotel' by locals and travelers alike, this ten-story white palace hosted legislators, Latter-day Saint conference-goers, conventioneers, visitors, skiers, and every U.S. president since William Howard Taft in 1912. "The Hotel Utah was built as a cooperative effort by the business and ecclesiastical leaders of the Salt Lake community to bring everyone together. It succeeded. Shares in the venture were sold and the hotel's prominent location on the corner of South Temple and Main Street, previously the site of the Bishop's Tithing Office and the Deseret News, was donated by the LDS Church. After two years of construction and a $2 million price tag, the Hotel opened 9 June 1911 'in a blaze of splendor' with a grand party for 500 of Utah's notables." - Heidi Swinton (Utah History Encyclopedia edited by Allen Kent Powell).
