Title: Autograph letter signed "C.Sns," quite possibly to his librettist
Author: SAINT-SAËNS, Camille 1835-1921
Seller: J & J Lubrano Music Antiquarians LLC (United States)
Description: 3 pp. of a bifolium. Octavo (ca. 159 x 101 mm). Dated "Sunday." On black-bordered ivory mourning stationery. In French (with translation). Saint-Saëns writes that his correspondent "has done well to be insistent" about the ending of an unidentified work, and has implemented the necessary corrections. "This ending was necessary. 'L'ombre abrite' is impossible. I put 'dans l'ombre, près del la fenêtre', and I substituted 'doux enfant' for 'jeune enfant'. That is obvious, I know, but it is a platitude. Never, neither in prose nor in verse, should one put a useless adjective. By finishing short and simple, my piece gains a lot from this addition." Small annotation to blank final page. Slightly worn and soiled; creased at folds. "Like Mozart, to whom he was often compared, [Saint-Saëns] was a brilliant craftsman, versatile and prolific, who contributed to every genre of French music. He was one of the leaders of the French musical renaissance of the 1870s." Sabina Teller Ratner et al. in Grove Music Online.

Title: Oficina de Educacion Fisica. Reglas Oficiales de Futbol Americano [cover title]
Author: [Mexico]. [American Football]. Contreras, Francisco
Seller: McBride Rare Books (United States)
Condition: Very good.
Description: Mexico City, 1936. Very good.. 83pp. Illustrated. Original printed wrappers, stapled. Some tanning to covers and text, minor edge wear, minor marginal chipping to top of first text leaf. Presentation copy of a rare work printing the rules and regulations of American football, compiled by the founder of La Federacion de Futbol Americano, Dr. Francisco Contreras. The author includes a full-page inscription on the inside of the front wrapper, signed "Coach Dr. Panche," dated September 22, 1935. The illustrations interspersed throughout the work include a plan of a football field, various gameplay techniques such as hiking the ball, blocking, and tackling (both legal and illegal ways), as well as a handful of common referee's signals. An interesting work indicating the initial popularity of American football in the first half of the 20th century, which waxes and wanes with the generations in other countries around the world. OCLC lists only one copy of the present work, at the Biblioteca Nacional, though somewhat oddly, the date of publication is given (likely erroneously) as 1939, though the front wrapper title has in it the 1936 date.
