Description
London: Bloomsbury, 1999 First edition, first printing, first state with "Joanne Rowling" on copyright page and line-break on p. 7 (According to Errington, "The book trade has generally thought that there were 2,500 copies of the first issue. The total edition consisting of all three states is 5,150 copies based on figures provided by the publisher."). Publisher's red and purple pictorial paper-covered boards, with an illustration of Harry and Hermione riding Buckbeak, lettered in orange and green; in its matching dust jacket. Near fine book, with previous owner's name written in pen on front free endpaper; near fine unclipped dust jacket, with light fading to spine, and light wrinkling to head of spine. Overall, a great copy. Errington A7(a). A pivotal novel in the series, The Prisoner of Azkaban was published before the series reached the level of popularity and cult following that it has today, but still managed to reach critical acclaim. In his third year at Hogwarts, Harry Potter and his friends search for the villainous outlaw Sirius Black after his escape from the wizard prison Azkaban. Unlike the first two books in the series, The Prisoner of Azkaban does not end with a cut-and-dry triumph over evil, but rather begins to pose the question of how media portals and popular perception affect whether someone is considered good or bad- a notion that will reoccur and becoming increasingly central to the story line as the series progresses.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Dust Jacket Included.

Description
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1929 First edition, first printing in second state dust jacket, price intact. Publisher's dark blue cloth, stamped in orange; original salmon dust jacket, front panel and spine ruled in black and red, lettered in black. Near fine book, with small mark to spine label, light spotting to fore edge of text block, previous owner’s bookplate to front pastedown, and previous owner’s inscription to front pastedown; very good dust jacket with light toning and some light marks to spine, a touch of soiling to front panel, chips to top right of front panel, lower corners, and fore edge of front panel, some chipping and light creasing along top edge of rear panel, small chip to spine affecting the “D” and “O” in “DODSWORTH,” and a bit of chipping to spine ends. Overall, a pleasing and presentable copy in its scarce original dust jacket. Pastore 15. One of Lewis's most acclaimed novels, Dodsworth tells the story of American automobile manufacturer Sam Dodsworth's retirement and subsequent travels through Europe with his wife Fran. The text is largely comprised of the Dodsworths’ reactions to and interpretations of the differences between European and American culture, intellect, and society. Notably, Lewis wrote Dodsworth at the height of his literary career and just before becoming the first American author to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. Indeed, bibliographer Stephen A. Pastore praises Dodsworth as "Lewis at his finest.". First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Dust Jacket Included.

Description
New York: Hudson Hills Press, 1991. THIRD EDITION. With 431 color plates and 30 additional color plates of unpublished works and posters. Publisher’s cloth, original dust jacket; in excellent condition, like it was never opened. Third edition, expanded from a publication originally released in 1980 and then revised in 1984. The monograph by Terenzio and Motherwell’s catalogue raisonné provides a definitive study of the artist’s work as a print-maker. It brings Motherwell’s work up to date, covering more than 450 pieces in virtually every medium, including engravings, silkscreen, lithography, etching, aquatint, mezzotint, monotype, collage and others. Each work is documented and reproduced. Included is a bibliographical outline, a listing of print exhibits, bibliography and index. Motherwell (1915-1991), abstract artist and print-maker, was the youngest of the New York school of artists that included Jackson Pollack, Mark Rothko and Willem de Kooning. His work often touched on political and social events and movements. And unlike his abstract expressionist colleagues, Motherwell became a renowned and celebrated print-maker. His work has been the subject of numerous exhibitions and retrospectives.
