Description
New York: Mother Earth Publishing Assocation, 1912. First Edition. Very Good+. First edition, first printing. Signed by Alexander Berkman on the front free endpaper with a dazzling and inspirational full-page inscription to a former owner, "Don't try to be of the herd. You are an individual, dif-ferent from all others. There would be more strength + originality in the world if we dared to be ourselves. Dare it. Alexander Berkman." [xvi], 512, [8; ads] pp with tissue-guarded frontisportrait of the author. Bound in publisher's grey cloth stamped in black on the spine; lacking the scarce dust jacket. Near fine with slight lean to binding, light wear to extremities, and toning.The anarchist's classic autobiography detailing his 14-year imprisonment for the failed assassination of industrialist and financier Henry Clay Frick during the Homestead Strike, alongside his critique of the carceral state and treatment of criminals. It was also one of the earliest works to call for the sympathetic treatment of homosexuals. Berkman's inscriptions, which are a rarity in themselves, are at times rather poignant, but rarely are they as rousing as this example.

Very good plus.
Description
[London]: [Transworld Feature Syndicate], 1970. Very good plus.. Vast archive of professional fashion, advertising, and editorial photographs from the late 1960s and 1970s, almost all by noted photographer Peter Levy. Large collection of professional fashion (and other) photographs, the majority with stamp credit to individual photographers and/or Transworld Feature Syndicate, Inc. The overwhelming majority (about 95%) are credited to Levy, though with a few other names noted including Jon Abbot, Ronnie Hertz, and others. The images were presumably intended for use in advertising due to the variety of subjects, but most are focused on fashion. Vivid scenes of men and women sporting outfits on the beach are included, as are in-depth shoots of female clothing, hair, and accessories. A deep archive, representative of a wide variety of the decade's styles: from the straight-haired, clean-faced Twiggy-esque holdovers from end of the '60s, to any number of snoods, turbans, and topless women in straw boaters, echoing the '20s revival that brought Mia Farrow's Great Gatsby to the screens of 1974. Models are for the most part uncredited, with the exception of Sue Smith, still remembered for her wrestling bout with Andy Kaufman; and several women identified by first name only: Holly, Ingrid, Eddie, Nina, Cathy, Marie. A significant majority of photographic subjects are women, with some notable forays into male swimwear in 1974, the year of the lounging onesie and the yellow plaid beach singlet magnificently memorialized here. 667 color slides in 36 plastic album leaves housed in an archival box (provided). Sleeves sometime worn and soiled, but slides all quite clean.
