Rome: Nella Stamperia di Gio. Battista de Caporali, per andare all'Orso, 1729. FIRST EDITION. Hardcover. Fine. Bound in later carta rustica. A fine, fresh copy on crisp paper. Very faint soiling to upper margin. A large historiated initial, decorative head- and tail-pieces. With the arms of Cardinal Polignac on the title page. A very rare account of the elaborate transformation of Piazza Navona to celebrate the birth of the Dauphin Louis, son of King Louis XV of France (1715-1774) and his royal consort María Leszczyńska (1703-1768). The Rococo painter Pier Leone Ghezzi (1674-1750), charged with staging the events, had the piazza “restored” to its ancient glory as the stadium of Domitian, the foundations of which are buried beneath the piazza and give the modern space its distinctive, oblong shape. The spectacle was captured by the Roman painter Giovanni Paolo Pannini (1691-1765), who produced a painting of the Piazza in its glory, of which two copies exist. One is in the Louvre, the other in the National Gallery of Ireland. The piazza was transformed by the erection of magnificent columns, quadriform temples (all painted to look like marble), monumental statuary, and fountains that flowed with wine (which was distributed to the spectators). The center-piece of the scene, Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers; Borromini’s church of Sant’Agnese served as the imposing backdrop for this splendid display. All of these elements, including the inscriptions, the symbolism of the statuary, the royal blazons, the festoons of laurel, flowers, and flowers that unified the components, the torches and candelabra that illuminated the whole scene, the various instruments played, etc., etc. are described in detail. The performances are also described. Musicians played from elevated stages, delighting the crowd with song. There were fireworks (conducted by the papal bombardieri of Castel Sant’Angelo), a cavalry parade, and a dramatic performance written by the celebrated librettist Pietro Metastasio (1698-1782), with music by Leonardo Vinci (1690-1730). The performance took place in the French ambassador’s residence, Palazzo Altemps, at the northern end of the piazza. The final page of the account names the performers, the set designer, and the engineers in charge of the fireworks. The second part of the volume comprises sonnets composed in honor of the Dauphin, the boy’s mother, María Leszczyńska, and the French ambassador to the Vatican, Cardinal Melchior di Polignac.

Description
Financier of the Revolution forced into bankruptcy court: "Sixty days after date, I promise to pay unto Mr. Mathias Kurlin Junr or Order Thirteen Hundred & forty six Dolls & Sixty Seven Cents for value recd." ROBERT MORRIS. Autograph Document Signed, December 12, 1794. 1 p., 7⅛ x 3¾ in. On the document's verso is a note reading "Exhibited to us under the commission against Robert Morris, Philadelphia, 15th October 1801." Signed by John Hollowell and Thomas Cumpston, commissioners appointed to oversee the bankruptcy proceedings after Morris had languished in debtor's prison for three years. Historical Background Robert Morris (1734-1806), signer of the Declaration of Independence, merchant and land speculator, is best known for his role as financier for the Continental Congress. With the national government virtually bankrupt, Morris risked his own personal fortune by purchasing supplies for the army, pressuring the states for cash contributions and securing a major French loan to finance the Bank of North America. He spent his remaining years in various public positions, including senator of Pennsylvania. Morris speculated extensively in Western land after the war, forming the North American Land Co. with James Greenleaf and Jonathan Nicholson. Soon after, however, the land market collapsed and Morris was ruined. The final blow came in 1798, when a minor creditor's claim sent him to the Philadelphia debtor's prison. It has often been said that while George Washington was president, he felt he could not pardon his long-time friend, but visited Morris in debtor's prison as a show of support. That story is only half true. Morris didn't enter debtor's prison until 1798, two years after Washington's presidency, so Washington couldn't have pardoned him, but he did visit Morris in prison, where the latter remained for three years until his wife was able to bail him out.

Description
Philadelphia: Johnson and Warner, 1811. Early American edition. First English edition was printed in 1802 and first American edition in 1803. Present dedication page dated October 1, 1802. One twelvemo volume (5 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches; 137 x 85 mm). iv, [1, contents], [1, blank], 5-292 pp. We could find no copies of either the first American or First English at auction. We could find only one complete copy of the 1803 edition in a library. Contemporary full sheep. Spine ruled in gilt. Morocco spine label. Boards rubbed and scuffed. Pages with toning and soiling as usual with American paper of this time. Pages 214-215 with some soiling, obscuring a few words. Small tear from upper outer corner of dedication page (pg iv), not affecting text. Previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown. Early ink ownership signature on front free endpaper. Overall a very good copy. "[Pilkington] decided to take advantage of her experience as a teacher and her interest in education and to become a professional writer for children. She had already published a volume of poetry in 1796 and now turned her hand to writing the first of many morally didactic tales. Three were published by Elizabeth Newbery in 1797... Pilkington quickly branched out into educational literature and wrote a succession of works designed for the growing market of girls' boarding-schools, including A Mirror for the Female Sex: Historical Beauties for Young Ladies (1798), Biography for Girls (1798), and Mentorial tales for the instruction of young ladies just leaving school and entering upon the theatre of life (1802). Although she regarded the religious and moral dimensions of education as paramount, she echoed both Hannah More and Mary Wollstonecraft in arguing that girls should be given an intellectual education and in asserting that 'the female mind is certainly as capable of acquiring knowledge as that of the other sex' (A Mirror for the Female Sex, 61)."

Description
Hollywood, 1954. Very Good. Lovely inscription by Liberace with a small vignette drawing of a grand piano beside his appropriately flamboyant signature. The inscription was to a Norma, and it reads: "To Lovely Norma, I think this is a most memorable Day for many reasons." The photo, framed by light card on the facing page, shows the young but easily recognizable Liberace smiling at Norma to his right, while Norma is looking straight at the camera, as is Andre Philippe, to Liberace's left. The photo is black and white and was surely taken by a roving photographer who worked the nightclub. Liberace in 1954 was at the height of his fame and popularity, which isn't to suggest that his star waned shortly thereafter, because it didn't. He had also played the Club Mocambo many times prior to 1954. We don't know, though, that he had a gig at the club the night of this photo. Andre Philippe, born in the Bronx as Everett Cooper (1927 to 2007), was an actor best known for his work on television, with a featured role in the series "Mr. Novak" in the early 1960s, guest roles on countless other television series, and smaller parts in many movies, some still well-known such as "Harry and Tonto". In the photo Andre Philippe looks like a young Desi Arnaz, and almost unrecognizable from his look during the core of his acting career. But from the signature there can be no doubt that he is one and the same. We do not know who Norma was. The photo and inscriptions are on the inside of a folded sheet photo sleeve from the club, with its name, location, and what was probably its logo on the front cover. Closed, the photo sleeve measures 17 by 21.5 cm. The photo, visible under its framing, is 11.5 by 16 cm. Light wear. Typical deterioration of the photo.

Albany GA: BearManor Media. (c.2015). First Edition. Softcover. Fine. [a very nice, as-new book, with no discernible wear]. (Scripts from the Crypt, No. 3) Series Trade PB (B&W photographs, facsimiles) Everything -- and I really do mean everything -- you could possibly want to know about this 1951 Grade-B (optimistically) "outlandish monster melodrama." Includes: an introduction by John Landis; the full original screenplay; an article about the making of the film; a tribute to its screenwriter-director, Curt Siodmak; an essay on its music score (by Raoul Kraushaar); an interview with producer Herman Cohen; a timeline of the life and career of its star, Lon Chaney Jr.; a reproduction of the original pressbook; "and more" (if you can take any more). This book is ample proof (if any was needed) that there are no cinematic depths too low to be plumbed by film scholars; I personally won't be satisfied until every single film in the Medveds' historic book "The Fifty Worst Films of All Time" has been honored with its own lavishly-illustrated monograph. (Or maybe they already have, and I just haven't been paying attention.) ****NOTE that additonal postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy oversize paperback; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** .
