Title: INNERMOST ASIA: Detailed Report of Explorations in Central Asia, Kan-su & Easter
Author: STEIN, M. Aurel
Seller: Rare Oriental Book Company, ABAA, ILAB - AN ART AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COMPANY (United States)
Description: London 1928, Oxford. Rose cloth, 4 vol. set: vol. 1-2 text, vol. 3 plates & plans, vol. 4 maps, bibliography, unclipped mended dust jackets in mylar protectors, 25.5 x 34 cm., brilliantly bright superb clean copy. FIRST & ONLY EDITION . *** **** *** . . FIRST & ONLY LIMITED EDITION OF 765 SETS . A monumental work, well-illustrated study on the trade route countries of Central Asia. Always a rare set when complete. . * "With descriptive lists of antiques by F.H. Andrews & F.M.G. Lorimer; & appendices by J. Allan et al." Volume 1, 2: text, 1159 pages, with text illustrations. Vol. 3: 137 plates, 59 plans. Vol. 4: 51 color folding maps in matching rose cloth case, with index tabs. . *** M. AUREL STEINS PERSONAL COPY: This is a very nice copy which was likely owned by the author as his personal letter was found used as a book mark in one of the volumes. The letter is 19 x 25.5 cm., plain toned white paper, written by Sir Aurel Stein using a very wide fountain pen and blue ink. The letter is in remarkable condition and has been folded twice, but now is quite flat and solid. . * WITH A VERY RARE HOLOGRAPHIC LETTER FROM AUREL STEIN: "At Highbroom, Ewhurst, Guilford: February 15, 1925 Dear Sirs, Thanks for your letter of the 9th inst. and the account rendered with it. I note in the account of entry of 10/6 charged for the Return of Income Tax for the years 1922-3 and 1923-4. As I was absent from the United Kingdom during the whole of these financial years, no Income Tax was due from the royalties received in these years on my behalf. I accordingly request the favour of an explanation as to how this charge arises against my account, and hope for a refund of the amount. Yours faithfully A. Stein" . * Perhaps Aurel Stein got his reply from the Income Tax office and or this was a copy of his letter. It was found lost as a "book mark" found in this set. A lovely insight to Stein, and his thoughts on how the British government had wrongly charged him Income Tax. A lovely holographic letter, written in pen and ink, in his usual and steady hand. Stein letters are rare and seldom found on the market. . *** FIRST & ONLY LIMITED EDITION OF 765 COPIES. We understand that this set was issued in a Limited Edition of only 765 complete copies, the balance of 250 sets were incomplete as they lacked 48 maps. . * THE MAPS AND MAP BOX VOLUME: The matching map box is also in bound in rose cloth, 25.5 x 34 cm., and is 5 cm. thick. There is some minor and usual wear to the upper and lower part of the hinged flap, with some old mends. The contents consist of 47 maps each with white index tabs, plus 4 other maps index tabs: "A,B,C,D," and the index, complete as issued. . *** CONDITION: . Bound in the publisher's cloth, as issued. . This is the brightest and freshest copy we have ever had in our 45 years of tenure. The cloth of the main three volumes is nearly flawless, with bright rose color, brilliant gold stamping on the spines and front covers. There is no scuffing whatsoever, and the head/tails of the spines are fresh with a few of the usual wrinkles expected. The joints are strong, tight and the book appears to be by and large unused. There are a few bumped corners: vol. 1: the front upper right corner has a very small bump; vol. 2: faint and very tiny hint of a bump on front lower right, else none; vol. 3: front right and left, and rear corners tiny bump, front lower right a larger bump, please see scans posted to our website for photographs. . * DUST JACKETS: The set of three volumes all have the original dust jackets each protected in Mylar covers. There was some of the usual wear to the unprotected dust jackets, and some restoration with matching paper was performed from the inside to stabilize the tears and small missing pieces. Overall the jackets are nice with some repairs to the upper and lower spine as well as corners and a few other spots here and there. Finding this set with the dust jacket is exceptionally rare and unusual. The set if ever found most always lacks the dust jackets. . *** . BIBLIOGRAPHY: . Stein 1862-1943. * Arntzen I 506. *.

Title: How to Unlock Your Subconscious Mind Through the Science of Mental Analysis
Author: Benedict, Elsie Lincoln; Ralph Paine Benedict
Seller: Burnside Rare Books, ABAA (United States)
Condition: Near Fine
Description: East Aurora, NY: The Roycrofters, 1921. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition, first printing.374 pp. Bound in publisher's half slate blue suede over paper boards stamped in black and morocco spine label stamped in gilt. Near fine with toning, faint soiling to covers, wear to extremities. A bright copy of this scarce work by the motivational speaking power couple. The work explores the scientific principles of examining the subconscious mind, dream analysis, success methods and "mental miracles." The suffragette turned motivational speaker was a pioneer in New Thought texts, laying the foundation for Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie. Affectionately coined "The Wonder Woman", and advertised as the world's best known lecturer, Elsie Lincoln Benedict spoke to over three million people in her lifetime. She was a millionaire by age 30 and drew a larger crowd than sitting President Wilson during the 1920 Human Analysis lecture series in Seattle, a testament to her universal appeal.

Title: Saboteur (Original publicity photograph from the 1942 film)
Author: Alan Baxter, Robert Cummings, Priscilla Lane, Norman Lloyd (starring); Alfred Hitchcock (director); Peter Viertel, Joan Harrison, Dorothy Parker (screenwriters)
Seller: Royal Books (United States)
Description: Universal City: Universal Pictures, 1942. Vintage studio still photograph from the 1942 film, showing actors Robert Cummings and Priscilla Lane. Date stamp and provenance stamp on the verso. From the archive of noted Hollywood still photographer Ray Jones. Born in Wisconsin on January 1, 1901. Jones worked for Paramount Pictures in the early 1930s, and was the first still photographer to win an Academy Award. He went on to be the head of the still photography department at Universal Pictures, where he worked well into the 1950s. A high spot among Alfred Hitchcock's early thrillers, and the director's only collaboration with author Dorothy Parker, who contributed to the screenplay. The film included much more location footage than most of the director's pictures, including Boulder Dam, locations in New York City including Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center, and of course Liberty Island for the famed closing scene on the Statue of Liberty. 10 x 8 inches. Very Good, moderately wavy on the bottom and top edges, with touch-ups on the recto.
