Title: The Southampton Cook Book. Published by the Ladies' Aid Society of the Congregational Church, Southampton, Mass
Author: [First Congregational Church (Southampton, Mass.). Ladies' Aid Society]
Seller: Rabelais - Fine Books on Food & Drink (United States)
Description: Westfield, Mass: Press of The Valley Echo, 1900. Octavo (20 x 13.25 cm), 92 pages. Advertisements. Illustrated. FIRST EDITION. An unreported church cookbook with three hundred recipes, the majority attributed. Fully of its era, emphasizing baked goods, sweets, and puddings - with five separate approaches to Walnut Cake, and five renditions also of Lemon Pie. Settlers from Northampton, in what is now the central western county of Hampshire, moved to Newtown-on-the Manhan - today called Southampton - in 1730, holding a lot of land open for a future Congregational minister. Their first meetinghouse was completed in 1752, and the permanent structure that took its place in 1788 still stands. The ladies of the Church developed a local reputation for activism; the Women's Missionary Society of First Congregational, founded in 1803, claims to be the oldest continuously operating organization of its kind in the country. In 1900 a bolt of lightning struck the steeple and set the Church ablaze. It was saved by a fire brigade, but little imagination is required to speculate why a fundraiser such as The Southampton Cook Book might have been useful. Internally somewhat discolored and with a few pages chipped at the edges (not affecting text); one small mark in pencil. In stapled, black lettered, cloth-backed, blue wrappers; soiled, creased, and worn. one newspaper clipping glued to inside of rear wrapper panel. Four handwritten recipes in pencil. Good. Unrecorded. [OCLC reports no copies; not in Brown, Cagle, or Cook].

Title: Almanach Illustré du Père Ubu [Bonnard Illustrations] [Limited Edition]
Author: Jarry, Alfred (1873-1907)
Seller: Blind Horse Books [ABAA - FABA] (United States)
Condition: Near Fine
Description: Lausanne: Éditions du Grand-Chêne, 1949. Near Fine/Very Good. THE GRAPHIC ENERGY OF THE PARISIAN AVANT-GARDE IN A PROTO-DADA MASTERPIECE OF THE THEATRE OF THE ABSURD BEFORE ABSURDISM. A striking mid-century revival of a foundational work of French modernism, faithfully reproducing the two-color aesthetic of the 1901 Ambroise Vollard original. This collaboration between Alfred Jarry and Pierre Bonnard represents a pivotal moment in the development of the European avant-garde; Jarry's absurdist, proto-Dada text is paired with Bonnard's 'Nabi' period line drawings. These illustrations, printed in red and blue, utilize flattened forms and simplified contours to reject academic naturalism in favor of a decorative, anti-naturalistic graphic style. Produced with the characteristic precision of Swiss printing, this edition preserves the grotesque satire of the Ubu mythos for a post-war audience. KEY FEATURES +++ Visuals: Illustrated throughout with red and blue line drawings by Pierre Bonnard. +++ Limitation: Copy one of 1000 numbered copies printed on 'papier vélin sans bois'. +++ Binding: Original printed wrappers with titles in red and black; housed in the original issued glassine. +++ Imprint: Lausanne, Éditions du Grand-Chêne; completed 31 January 1949 at Imprimerie Held S.A. +++ Specs: Octavo (6.5 x 9 inches); 9-59, [2] pages. CONDITION: Near Fine. The bindings are tight and square with only minimal evidence of shelf handling. Internally, the text is clean with light, even age-toning consistent with the paper stock. The original glassine wrapper is present and well-preserved, showing only expected toning and light wear at the top edge. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - Alfred Jarry was the iconoclastic creator of 'Ubu Roi', a play that famously incited a riot at its 1896 premiere and effectively birthed the Theatre of the Absurd. The 'Almanach' allowed Jarry to expand the grotesque character of Père Ubu into a satirical commentary on the 20th century. Pierre Bonnard, a central figure of 'Les Nabis', provided the perfect visual counterpoint; his simplified, symbolist graphic style mirrors the raw, primitive energy of Jarry's writing. While the 1901 Vollard edition is a six-figure rarity, this 1949 Lausanne printing is highly regarded by collectors for its typographic clarity and its role in re-introducing Jarry's 'Pataphysics' to the Dada and Surrealist movements that claimed him as their spiritual ancestor. SUBJECTS: Alfred Jarry, Pierre Bonnard, Les Nabis, Avant-Garde Theatre, Pataphysics, French Modernism, Limited Editions, Illustrated Books, Livre d'Artiste, Swiss Imprints. BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCE: Monod 6348 (for 1901 ed); see also The Artist and the Book 1860-1960.
