Nine issues, circa 8-24 pp. each. Tabloid, folded to quarto size (22 3/4 x 17 3/8 inches, folded to 11 1/4 x 8 5/8 inches). Original colorful self-wrappers. Creasing along central fold lines, light browning along some edges, overall very good condition. Aurora, Missouri: The Poster Project LTD., 1991-1995. First issue signed by editor Wes Wilson. A complete run in nine issues of the irregularly-published journal dedicated to the art of psychedelic rock posters and underground comic art, edited by noted American artist and psychedelic poster designer Wes Wilson (1937-2020). Brightly illustrated throughout, the issues contain regular contributions by Robert Crumb, Andrei Codrescu, Eric King, Jacaeber Kastor, Gary Grimshaw, Walter Medeiros, Paul Getchell, Ben Edmonds, Paul Grushkin, John Platt, Dick Wentworth, and others, alongside advertisements for poster shows and exhibitions, short articles, poetry, and classified ads. There are also reproductions of posters as well as original photographs and comic art, all of it executed in an experimental computer graphic page design consistent with consumer-grade desktop publishing software from the 1990s. Primarily notable for its graphically spectacular blending of 1960-1970s poster art with an emerging computer graphic design aesthetic of the early 1990s, Off the Wall also provided a linkage between the left-wing political commitments of the psychedelic era and the more diffuse drug culture and music scenes of the nineties. It was the first journal completely devoted to psychedelic poster artists. Scarce: as of February 2025, OCLC locates three holdings in United States institutional libraries.

Fine in a near fine jacket.
Description
New York: Braziller, 1973. First Edition. Fine in a near fine jacket.. Inscribed first edition of Bidart's debut collection, containing arguably his most famous poem, the chilling "Herbert White" - a terrific association copy inscribed to the book's editor and designer. Ford was an almost unique figure in the American poetry community. Long-time poetry editor at both Knopf and Braziller (as well as Atheneum), he is singular in that he also designed many of the books he edited and thus helped define not only the taste but also the visual style of mainstream American poetry in the second half of the last century. These dual gifts made him much-beloved among poets, for whom he could help mold a volume into a seamless whole of form and content. Ford edited and designed collections for Elizabeth Bishop, Donald Justice, Philip Levine, W.S. Merwin, and (as here) Bidart. Hardcover. Octavo. Original gold (duh) cloth. Jacket has touches of rubbing and a bit of toning at edges. Unclipped. Clean and sharp overall. Inscribed by Bidart to GOLDEN STATE's editor and designer Harry Ford: "To Harry Ford, / grateful for his beautiful job on this book - / Frank Bidart / July 5, 1973."

Corners bumped, scattered very light foxing to text, plates bright and clean, no ownership or library marks. Very good in custom archival mylar covers. From the PREFACE: "The present volumes represent the fourth English edition of the well known Jacobi-Pringle 'Atlas of Dermochromes.' The chromolithographs are mostly taken from wax models in the Breslau Clinic. A large number of new plates are now included which have been added by Dr. Karl Zieler, and are used by him in his valuable textbook. The new text is not a translation, but is an original contribution, the descriptive matter being limited to the essentials necessary for diagnosis and treatment." HENRY MacCORMAC (1879-1950), was a British dermatologist during the early twentieth century. MacCormac was a member of a distinguished medical family that included Henry MacCormac and Sir William MacCormac. Henry MacCormac was educated at the University of Edinburgh and graduated MB.ChB. in 1903. He qualified as a member of the Royal College of Physicians of England shortly thereafter. He served as a dermatologist in the department of dermatology at Middlesex Hospital.

Any kind of book. Just the type of enthusiastic endorsement of books and reading that Powell was so enthusiastic about. But Cheney gives the text a beautiful treatment worthy of a culture that seems to be fading away day by day. August Frugé was the longtime director of the University of California Press who broke new ground by expanding the book list beyond academic works to include titles about nature, history, and literature for a broader audience.

And yet there are those who love it!" -Daniel Webster, Oral Argument, March 10, 1818, Dartmouth College v. Woodward Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1816-1819) established significant precedents concerning state authority and the nature of private enterprise. Dartmouth College was incorporated under a royal charter in 1769 as a private corporation. In 1816 the New Hampshire Legislature attempted to transform the college into a state institution. Daniel Webster, representing the college trustees, convinced the U.S. Supreme Court that the royal charter was a contract that could not be invalidated by subsequent state legislation. The court concurred. Its decision initiated a significant constitutional limitation on state authority. It also helped to define corporations as relatively unregulated private economic entities that contributed to the public sphere through enlightened self-interest. Shirley offers a vivid account of the case, enriched by extensive quotation of primary archival sources. Reprint of the first edition. "The complete history of the Dartmouth college case is very curious and deserves more than a passing notice. Until within three years it is not too much to say that it was quite unknown, and its condition is but little better now. In 1879 John M. Shirley published a volume entitled the 'Dartmouth College Causes' which is a monument of careful study and thorough research. Most persons would conclude that it was a work of merely legal interest, appealing to a limited class of professional readers. Even those into whose hands it chanced to come have probably been deterred from examining it as it deserves by the first chapter, which is very obscure, and by the confusion of the narrative which follows. Yet this monograph, which has so unfortunately suffered from a defective arrangement of material, is of very great value, not only to our legal and constitutional history, but to the pol.
