London: George G. Harrap & Company Limited, 1923. First Edition. Quarter Vellum over Boards. Very Good/Good. A futuristic journey that was from its very conception sweetly moored in the misty past! 4to. 31 by 24 cm. 48 pp and 48 tipped-in (or mounted) color plates. The singular story and its illustrations are truly sui generis; the fabulous concoction of fantasy rendered here draws equally from both the text and illustrations. Condition: Short closed tear, upper spine extremity. Touches of soiling on vellum spine, but the vellum overall is bright and comes off as clean. Neatly written short ink gift inscription dated 1928 on FFEP. Within green leaves, upon which text and plates are mounted, has age toning around edges, manifest in light browning. DJ with a few chips, the largest being the rear upper edge, yet the most conspicuous being by the upper spine extremity. Also chipped by lower extremity. All chips have jagged, or irregular edges. Rear with a few crinkle lines and one dime-sized stain. The DJ now protected from further decay by mylar and white backing. We rate the DJ merely Good because of these chips, but if considering only the front cover, it would come out better.

Description
The albumen print shows Remington standing full length, holding a painter's palette and brushes docketed on verso, "Fred Remington on stage at Leary's Studio." Additional notation from the former owner of the photograph, photography collector and dealer Howard Daitz, notes Remington's birth and death dates and basic biographical information. In a third hand, the artist's name is written in pencil in the upper right corner. The photograph measures 8 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches attached to 7 x 9 inch board and both show some overall sunning, fading and aging. The two lower corners are bent at their tips. There is a crack in the albumen print at midpoint of left margin of about two inches appears to have been secured by affixing the print to the hard board. Our research suggests this is a unique image of Remington.

Description
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1936. Octavo (22.5 x 16 cm.), 484 pages. Illustrated. FIRST EDITION. A fascinating account of the evolution of the New Orleans' French Quarter underworld, with Prohibition tales and stories of gambling, prostitution, voodoo purveyors, and political corruption. One of a series of book-length explorations of the low life of various cities undertaken by the great Herbert Asbury, perhaps best known for his Gangs of New York, which served as the foundation for the film of the same name by Martin Scorcese. In 1928, well before repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, Asbury reintroduced America to Jerry Thomas' Bon Vivant's Companion, the classic "earliest" cocktail manual. His final book, The Great Illusion: An Informal History of Prohibition, was published in 1950. Internally clean and sound, in black linen-backed boards. The unclipped dust jacket is near fine, with just a bit of light wear to the edges and some age-toning.
