BROADWAY First edition. Signed by the artist. Original printed cardboard with stapled cotton ties. Photographic artist's book documenting New York's Broadway. 249 images laid out horizontally, three images to a panel, on 83 individual panels, each attached end-to-end so that it becomes an uninterrupted continuum of street views tracing New York City's most celebrated thoroughfare as it travels the length of Manhattan from its Southernmost point at The Battery all the way to the Spuyten Duyvil. With the Manhattan bus map inserted to the rear as called for. A very good copy of a delicate production with a little rubbing and spotting to the extremities. Folded out in full the contents extend to 99 feet (30 metres).One of only 200 copies. Signed by Henderikse in pencil on the upper cover. Broadway's binding and format is quite evidently modeled on Ed Ruscha's 1971 book Dutch Details which he had published as a project related to Sonsbeek 71 at the Groninger Museum. This exhibition, which also included Henderickse's work, focused on site-specific work, non-traditional media such as artists' books, and other new forms to which the era's conceptually oriented art practices were giving rise.

Jazz New York: George Braziller, Inc.,, 1983. Folio. Contents loose as issued in printed wrappers. With the publisher's dark blue cloth-backed solander box and buff card slipcase. 152 leaves and 20 colour plates. An excellent copy in a slightly rubbed solander box and lightly worn slipcase with short closed tears a light creases to extremites. First facsimile edition of Matisse's late masterpiece, originally published in 1947. With an introduction by Riva Castleman and text translated into English by Sophie Hawkes. "At the age of seventy-five, during a twelve-month confinement to his bed, Matisse composed Jazz. The title itself evolved from the affinity Matisse felt between his own method of improvisation and that of jazz musicians. Actually, most of the scenes of Jazz are taken from circus life and represent sword swallowers, knife throwers, cowboys and tank swimmers. Several of the performers existed in life, for instance Codomas and Monsieur Loyal, a famous clown. The illustrations for Jazz were not conceived as original prints. Instead, they are splendid colour reproductions of the signs Matisse worked out with scissors, paste and pins. The artist first covered large sheets of white paper with thin washes of brilliant colours [brilliantly rendered in this edition]. From these he cut out figures and forms which he then arranged with paste and pins into bold patterns. These collages of painted pieces of paper (Matisse called them 'drawings with scissors') were reproduced by pochoir (stencil) using the same colours Matisse himself had originally mixed" (Leymarie, Read, & Lieberman, Henri Matisse, 1966, pp. 28-29).

The CIVIL warS: A Tree Is Best Measured When It Is Down | De Rotterdam Schouwburg (Original poster for the premiere of the Rotterdam movement of the 1984 opera) Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Rotterdam 1983 - Original poster for the 1984 opera directed by Robert Wilson with music by Philip Glass, David Byrne, Gavin Bryars, and others, as performed in Rotterdam on September 11, 1983.

American Primitive. Boston: Little, Brown, 1983. First edition of the poet's Pulitzer Prize-winning collection. Octavo, original green cloth. Inscribed in the month of publication on the front free endpaper, "For Roger and Betty, with many good wishes. Mary. April, 1983." Additionally signed by Mary Oliver on the title page. The recipients were neighbors and close friends of the author in Cape Cod. Fine in a fine dust jacket. The hardcover edition is scarce, as it was issued simultaneously in paperback and association copies inscribed in the month of publication are rare. Mary Oliver was described by The New York Times as "far and away, [America's] best-selling poet." She has won both the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and the National Book Award in 1992. Oliver's poetry has been called an "indefatigable guide to the natural world, particularly to its lesser-known aspects" (Kumin, 1993). "Visionary as Emerson [ she is] among the few American poets who can describe and transmit ecstasy, while retaining a practical awareness of the world as one of predators and prey," reviewed The Nation. Holly Prado of Los Angeles Times Book Review noted that Oliver's work "touches a vitality in the familiar that invests it with a fresh intensity." [Bookseller: Raptis Rare Books]

The Armageddon Rag #9 of 500 Signed Limited Editions in slipcase New York: Poseidon Press and Nemo Press. F/F. 1983. 1st Edition. Hardcover; 1st Printing. 1st edition/1st printing of the 500 limited editions - issued at the same time as the trade edition but both counted as 1sts since they have different ISBNs and are different sizes, bindings, numbers published, etc. This book is #9 of 500 of the signed limited 'collector's edition' with dustjacket, in publisher's red cloth-bound slipcase. The book is Fine - tight, clean, no soiling or wear and no markings other than the author's signature and number on the limitation page. The dustjacket is also Fine - price intact, clean, crisp, no fading, edgewear, tears or chips. The slipcase is Fine, with no wear or soiling. A beautiful production. If you've only read Mr. Martin's fantasy, you need to give his early sci-fi and/or horror a try - he's excellent at any combination of those two. Most of his earlier stories really can't be labeled strictly as one genre or the other - so I'll just say he's great at speculative fiction in all its varieties. If you prefer trade editions for his earlier works, look for some both signed and unsigned in our inventory. ; B&W Illustrations; 9-1/4" x 6-1/4"; 333 pages; Signed by Author .
