Description
1823. EGAN, Pierce. Boxiana; or, Sketches of Ancient and Modern Pugilism. London: Sherwood, Jones and Company, 1823-29. Five volumes.

Egan devotes a major part of Boxiana to a history of the boxing careers of about over a hundred boxers, often including a round to round account of the famous fights of a particular boxer, such as Jim Belcher, Tom Cribb, Dan Mendoza, Tom Molyneaux, 'Gentleman' John Jackson and many others. First published in 1812, Boxiana proved so popular that Egan expanded the work to an eventual four volumes; the fourth volume was written by another author after Egan briefly lost the rights to the series, but after securing the rights to the title he published a further two volumes as part of a New Series. With Volume II only of the New Series. Without the portrait of Alexander Reed in the last volume, but with an additional plate depicting ""A Sparring Match at the Fives Court"" in Volume III. Owner signature.Plates occasionally trimmed a bit close, a few leaves with marginal paper repairs in the last volume. Very handsomely bound.

Description
N.p.: N.p., 1963. Vintage borderless reference photograph from the 1963 British film, showing actors Albert Finney and Susannah York. With manuscript ink annotations on the verso. From the collection of artist and author Duncan Hannah. Duncan Hannah was a key figure in the burgeoning New York underground arts scene, befriending Andy Warhol and his superstars, Lou Reed, Allen Ginsberg, Patti Smith, Salvador Dali, and many others. A graduate of the Parsons School of Design, his paintings were exhibited in the influential 1980 Times Square Show alongside work by Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, and several of his paintings are held in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Based on Henry Fielding's popular 1749 novel, wherein a young, good-natured man of questionable origins is turned loose on the world (and more to the point, the world's women). Nominated for ten Academy Awards and winning four, including Best Picture and Best Director. Set and shot on location in England. 7 x 9 inches. Near Fine.

New York, NY: H. Holt, 1996. Hardcover. VG. Bw illustrated dj with red text, gray boards with black cloth spine and silver text on spine. 550 pp. Some bw illustrations. One of the giants of the twentieth century, Marcel Duchamp changed the course of modern art. Visual arts, music, dance, performance--nothing was ever the same again because he had shifted art's focus from the retinal to the mental. Duchamp sidestepped the banal and sentimental to find the relationship between symbol and object and to unearth the concepts underlying art itself.
