Description
New York: Kulchur Press, 1967. First Edition. Near fine in original acetate jacket.. Scarce hardcover issue of this collaboration by Berrigan and Padgett, illustrated by Joe Brainard, mostly composed between 1962 and '65. Individual pieces are unattributed in the text, though credits note several contributions from other artists and writers, notably Gerard Malanga and Peter Orlovsky, and "Peter Schjeldahl says he wrote parts of WHAT THE THUNDER SAID. He didn't." From Lita Hornick's great press, includes Berrigan's fictional "interview" with John Cage. A fragile book, this is an exceptional example. 9.75'' x 7.25''. Original color pictorial boards. In original acetate jacket. Trace shelfwear at extremities. Tiny scuff to two preliminary pages. Else clean, bright, and sound.

Description
Leyden Samuel Luchtman & Sons, 1751. Two vols. Tall 8vo., full burgundy turkey morocco with triple gilt fillet borders that cross at the corners; flat spine divided by horizontal gilt bands (a thick fillet surrounded by two thinner lines), with assorted gilt fleurons in each compartment--stars, flowers, etc. A large gray-green title label, hand lettered, and a smaller one at the bottom with the name of the publisher and the date of publication. Marbled endleaves, board edges gilt, inner gilt dentelles, a.e.g., with the oval leather Huth bookplate in each volume. In very fine condition and identical to a set of bindings (on a book by the same publisher) described as having ponce been in the Lamoignon library. A most scholarly edition of the works of Suetonius (De vita Cæsarum, published ca. 121 and De viris illustribus, composed 106-13, of which we have De grammaticis et rhetoribus and a few Lives of Roman writers), with extensive contemporary commentary and annotation, plus engraved portraits of the XII Roman emperors along with reproductions of coins struck in their honor. Much of the significance of Suetonius is due to his surviving works, because of their intrinsic interest, their place in the history of biography, and their influence on historiography; his influence extended to the Christian writers and his place in the history of biography is important. Having a well printed Latin edition, embellished with fine engravings and wood-engraved head and tail-pieces, in such an elegant, contemporary binding and from an excellent collection, makes this copy particularly desirable.
