Description
New York: Monarch Books, 1964. Gouache and tempera on art board, 19.5 x 14 inches, total board size 25.75 x 20 inches. With Monarch Books' printed label on verso. Minor edge wear and thumb-soiling to margins, publisher's registration marks framing the edges of the painting. A visually stunning original painting produced as cover art for a seemingly unpublished Monarch Books mass market paperback title in the 1960s. The artist, Ralph Brillhart (1924-2007), painted just over a dozen covers for Monarch in three years. Monarch itself lasted only eight years, publishing lurid pulp fiction and sci-fi between 1958 and 1965. The painting is composed of three creepy green-masked figures in a field of fire at left, next to a field of textured tempera in dark purple, all set above a tranquil scene of a futuristic midcentury home comprised of two clear glass bubbles, radio antennae, and a tall tower with red and white alternating stripes along the length of the pole. After an exhaustive search of the history of Monarch Books online, we simply could not find a record of this novel's publication.

Description
New York: Liveright Publishing Corporation, 1940. First edition. Hardcover. 534pp. Thick octavo [19.5 cm] Thickly woven blue cloth covered boards with gilt stamped titles. Very good. The spine is barely perceptibly rolled. Bookseller's tiny label on the rear pastedown. The dust jacket is in fair condition. There is a large loss from the bottom edge. Frank Waters wrote 27 books, including novels, biographies, histories, and essay collections. The majority of his fiction and non-fiction mirrors Waters’ wide interest in the culture and religion of Navajo, Hopi, Pueblo, and pre-Columbian peoples. He felt that all his books were immediate failures in the beginning. However, they were constantly reprinted in small printings and translated into foreign languages until finally gaining worldwide recognition.
