Description
Jaipur, India: The Information Bureau, Government of Jaipur / Bombay: The Times of India Press, 1948. Save for marginal annotation to one image, this is a fine copy in red cloth boards with black-stamped design. Shallow chips to corners of the uncommon jacket, thus near fine. A superior copy of this landmark book, with publisher's ephemera.. First Edition. Octavo. An Advance Review Copy of Henri Cartier-Bresson's first appearance in book-form— preceded only by a MoMA catalogue—featuring 64 black-and-white images from the photographer's visit to Jaipur for the marriage of Princess Premkumari Sahiba; accompanied by a touristic text from Max Olivier. Published by the Government of Jaipur's Information Bureau as part of a post-Independence marketing campaign, this advance copy is accompanied by two leaflets from the Bureau's Publicity Officer, who echoes the praise of the work's introduction, which positions Cartier-Bresson as the leading exponent of "documentary humanism." Frontispiece portrait by Sam Tata.

Description
New York, 1930. Paperback. Very Good. ill & photo (portraits), 8p. No separate wrapper. 31cm. Text in three columns. Modest browning. Edited by James Denson Sayers. An uncommon racist monthly issued by the White League, June 1930-March 1931 (only 10 issues published). Lead article in this issue is "The Negrophile is Civilization's most Virulent Enemy," by George Allen England (filling pages 1-3 and concluded on the bottom half of the first column on page 4). England, 1877-1936, was a English writer of science fiction, etc. This article makes it clear that England was also an unabashed white racist. Here is part of his first paragraph: "I believe the conclusion unavoidable, that the Negro has always been, is, and will ever continue to be, an inferior race; and as a corollary, that any mingling of Negro and White blood will inevitably result in a lowering of the whole race. From this, what further conclusion can be drawn than that the negrophile, who favors and works for such a mingling, is the most virulent enemy the White race and its civilization today are facing.
