Arguably one of Bobby Ross's most well-received series is his Sex Series. This series is being offered for sale for the first time since purchased by its original owner in 1981. These are the original graphite drawings framed by the artist. Each is meticulously drawn showing difficult-to-imagine details and measuring 6" ht. x 5" w. inside the matting and exterior frame size of 13" ht. x 12" w. A fabulous set of signed graphite drawings. Additional images available upon request. This set will require additional postage for FedEx and insurance.

Triolet Rare Books, ABAA (United States)
Description
London: London Gallery Editions, 1939. First edition. Publisher's wood-grain boards, lettered on the front board and spine (design by Hans Bellmer). Photographic endpapers. Photomontage frontispiece; 37 black and white photographs and a drawing, text in black and red. Some minor foxing to boards, slight chipping to head of spine. One of 500 numbered copies, this is number 132 (H.C.). Originally created as a unique visual diary dedicated by Penrose to Lee Miller as a souvenir of their travels through the Balkans in 1938. The following year, Penrose created this edition: "I amused myself further by finding a friendly printer who happily put at my disposal his entire stock of type which I used freely in unconventional lay-outs to emphasise what I had to say." In his afterword to the Getty facsimile published in 2003, curator Weston Naef said of it, "the 1939 edition of The Road Is Wider Than Long occupies an unheralded place in the history of early modern artists' books. It is one of the few books by a Surrealist artist to have been illustrated with photographs. It is also one of the first artists' books to use the new and inexpensive method of offset lithography printed on ordinary commercial printing paper rather than traditional lithography printed on expensive handmade paper and issued in a very limited edition." Roland Penrose was the primary carrier of surrealism from France to England. He organized the International Exhibition of Surrealism in London in 1936, and a solo show of Max Ernst's in London in 1937. Leonora Carrington saw this show and was immediately captivated; "I fell in love with Max's paintings before I fell in love with Max." She met him at a dinner party soon afterwards, and their amour fou began immediately. Max and Leonora remained close to Penrose and his partner (later wife) Lee Miller, both of whom visited them when they lived in Saint-Martin d'Ardèche in the south of France before the war disrupted their bliss. This copy is inscribed to Leonora Carrington and Max Ernst, with a drawing of an eye within a heart and a warm dedication to his longtime friend and mentor Ernst, "qui a eté la boussole vertical de ma route depuis LONGTEMPS." Although the inscription is undated, the book must have been given to Max and Leonora in 1939, the year of publication, the year in which their idyllic existence in southern France was destroyed. Penrose and Miller's journey through the Balkans was similarly overshadowed by impending war; an evocative and poignant object.

St. Petersburg: A. Golovachov Press, 1866. FIRST EDITION. With 1 folding engraved plate and numerous text illustrations. Original orange printed wrappers, spine slightly torn; interior occasional spotting, still a very good copy preserved in a folding clamshell box. First edition. Sechenov's theory of cerebral behaviour mechanisms was the basis for the development of neurophysiology and objective psychology in Russia, as well as the investigations of Pavlov and Bekhterev. This work contains Sechenov's discoveries that higher brain function is a material reflex consisting of three sectors: pleasure, fear and distress. He conceived that inhibition could be learned and as a person matured the degree of inhibition increased. The government attempted to censor his work and destroy the published materials, but through these lectures he disseminated his ideas amongst university students and earned himself the title of "father of Russian physiology.

Description
London: Printed at the Ballantyne Press for Hacon & Ricketts [i. e., Vale Press], 1899. ONE OF 210 COPIES on paper (and 10 on vellum). 150 x 117 mm. (5 7/8 x 4 5/8"). 44, [4] pp. VERY PRETTY ROSY BROWN MOROCCO, GILT IN AN ARTS AND CRAFTS DESIGN, covers quartered by gilt tendrils emanating from a central four-pointed star, these blossoming into tulips that frame the cover, raised bands, spine compartments with tulip sprig and gilt lettering, turn-ins framed in gilt with spray of five tulips at each corner, moss green watered silk pastedowns and endleaves, top edge gilt, other edges untrimmed. Paragraphs marked with small leaves, two five-line white-vine initials, and two full woodcut grapevine borders, all designed by Charles Ricketts. Printed in red and black. Ricketts, p. xxvi; Tomkinson, p. 167. Joints showing just minor wear, a small scattering of tiny dark spots on rear cover, otherwise very fine. Offered here in a floral Arts and Crafts binding, this is the very appealing Vale Press edition of Rossetti's Medieval-inspired short story. Originally published in the inaugural January 1850 issue of the Pre-Raphaelite journal "The Germ," "Hand and Soul" follows the fictional 13th-century Italian painter Chiaro dell' Erma through his art and spirituality. One of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, our author, the poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-82), was an early and profound influence on William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, and through them on the Arts & Crafts Movement that, among other things, revived letterpress printing. The Vale Press was a direct extension of that movement. Founded in 1896 by Charles Ricketts, its goal was to promote beauty and an artistic sentiment in printing. The press released nearly 50 titles issued during its eight-year life, and both its impressive output and considerable artistic success can be attributed to the fact that Ricketts, who was remarkably skilled as a designer, painter, and illustrator, was in control of every facet of the operation. Cave tells us that the Vale Press books were "far truer to the spirit of fifteenth-century printing than Kelmscott work," entirely fitting the Medieval revival sentiments so dear to Rossetti and evident in the text. The binding, while unsigned, is obviously the work of a talented craftsperson; its composition, with effective use of simple gilt fillets combined with a lively floral border, is reminiscent of the designs of Cobden-Sanderson..

A charming box of children's puzzles, that doubles as a metamorphosis/transformation. In total there are five (5) different puzzles, each with its own character. This example is complete. The characters can be mixed and matched (hence the "metamorphosis") to create completely new characters in a fun twist on the traditional puzzle. Note well the stereotypes (racist, sexist, ageist, xenophobic or otherwise) at play here. The characters include: Uncle Sam; a whiskered gentleman; a minstrel; an Irishman; and an old maid. Each puzzle measures approx. 9.5" by 6.5" by 0.25", and is made from a coated chromolithographed print pasted onto five different blocks of wood. The box measures approx. 10.5" by 7.5" by 2.5", and has a sliding lid. Ives, Blakeslee and Co. manufactured toys for American children ranging from puzzles and mechanical toys to toy pistols, magic lanterns, rattles and toy banks.

Description
1952. [Interracial Relationships] [Pulp] Gordon, Ian. Harlem Is My Heaven (The Night Thorn). New York: Berkley Publishing Corp. First edition, 1952. Original illustrated wrappers depict a white man on his knees embracing a Black woman dressed in a vibrant off-shoulder blouse and skirt, her expression distant and reflective. 8vo, 159 pages. This mid-century pulp novel explores the taboo topic of an interracial relationship in the United States during the 1950s. Originally published under the title The Night Thorn, the novel belongs to a wave of sensationalist fiction that dramatized racial and sexual boundaries under the guise of urban noir and erotic pulp. Set in Harlem, a historically Black neighborhood in New York City known for its vibrant cultural life and political activism, the story likely engages with race as both a social boundary and an eroticized construct. Novels like this often walked a fine line between critique and exploitation-feeding white readers' curiosity about Black urban life while reinforcing stereotypes or fantasies of forbidden desire. While Harlem Is My Heaven cannot be understood as a progressive or empathetic portrayal by today's standards, it offers valuable insight into how popular literature reflected and shaped mid-century American attitudes toward race, sex, and identity. Overall very good condition.

Description
San Francisco: Fraenkel Gallery, 2021. First edition. New in shrinkwrap. Folio. Cloth; dust jacket. "The world in a front yard: Robert Adams records the seasonal shifts and transformations of the near and the intimate. For much of his long career, Robert Adams (born 1937) has photographed the regions where he has lived, recording the transformation of the Western landscape into suburbs in Colorado, or documenting the destruction left in the wake of the timber industry in the Pacific Northwest. In recent years his focus has often turned to more intimate landscapes, as he has depicted the area around his home near the Oregon coast, where he has lived for more than 20 years. Standing Still celebrates a small front yard--its verdancy, and the changing light and seasons throughout the year. The black-and-white photographs record a lawn and its border of shrubs and small trees; a stone bird bath, deer and Adams' wife, Kerstin. They show a landscape immersed in fog and dusted with snow, or bathed in warm sunlight. In this quiet place, "each day can be the first day," writes Adams" (the publisher).
