LUCAS, George - FOSTER, Alan Dean (ghostwriter).
Star Wars. From the Adventures of Luke Skywalker.
New York: Del Rey; Ballantine Books 1976 1977. Another galaxy another time First hardback edition signed by the ghostwriter Alan Dean Foster on the title page which solely credits George Lucas. This novelization of Star Wars: A New Hope was originally published as a paperback five months prior to the release of the film in May 1977 and represented the world's first encounter with a long-form story from the galaxy far far away. This copy is from the book club edition published in July 1977 and preceding the first trade hardback edition of November. This copy has the printer's date code "S27" in the gutter of the final page as required for the first printing. Foster's version is "perhaps most notable for allowing its readers to experience the interiority of characters from the film. Although the film establishes Leia's willingness to shoot the stormtroopers the novelization allows its readers to imagine the consequences of her act more vividly by narrating the stormtrooper's thoughts and aspirations" Webster p. 51. It also includes colour photographs from the film with captioned explanations of the Star Wars universe presciently described as images that "may become a milestone in the space fantasy genre" facing p. 42. The front panel of the dust jacket was designed by the lead poster designer for the original trilogy John Berkey and the rear panel gives credit for the film. The novelization includes several key details omitted from the finished film but later retconned into the series including Palpatine p. 1 the Sith p. 7 and perhaps most infamously a medal for Chewbacca p. 183. By contrast the most famous opening line in film is here given as "Another galaxy another time". Octavo. With 16 pp. of colour photographic illustrations printed on black paper stock with accompanying text. Original grey boards spine lettered in blue fore edge untrimmed. With dust jacket. Spine ends and corners bumped cockling to pastedowns; jacket spine flaps and verso browned unclipped: a very good copy in like jacket. Jeremy W. Webster "Leia Shot First: Transmedia Storytelling and the National Public Radio Dramatization of Star Wars" Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling 2018. paperback

LUCAS, George - FOSTER, Alan Dean (ghostwriter).
Star Wars.
New York: Ballantine Books 1976. A long time ago in a publishing house far far away. First edition signed by the ghostwriter Alan Dean Foster on the title page though solely credited to George Lucas. Published five months before the film's release this popular novelization was the world's first encounter with a long-form story from the galaxy far far away. The cover bears one of Ralph McQuarrie's famous concept illustrations a critical element in 20th Century Fox's decision to greenlight the Star Wars project. Before audiences had seen the special effects heard the sound design or absorbed John Williams's orchestral score Lucas's fast and intense story sold millions of copies. This book version is "perhaps most notable for allowing its readers to experience the interiority of characters from the film. Although the film establishes Leia's willingness to shoot the stormtroopers the novelization allows its readers to imagine the consequences of her act more vividly by narrating the stormtrooper's thoughts and aspirations" Webster p. 51. The novelization includes several key details omitted from the finished 1977 film but later retconned into the series including Palpatine p. 1 the Sith p. 8 and a medal for Chewbacca p. 219. By contrast the most famous opening line in film is here given as "Another galaxy another time". Octavo. Original pictorial wrappers designed by Ralph McQuarrie edges yellow. Bookseller ink stamp to first leaf. Extremities of wrappers creased and rubbed rear wrapper and bottom edge warped occasional spotting. A very good copy. Jeremy W. Webster "Leia Shot First: Transmedia Storytelling and the National Public Radio Dramatization of Star Wars" Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling 2018. unknown

Lucha Libre Negro Navarro
Lucha Libre Match featuring Famed Luchadors Negro Navarro Black Power and El Signo Broadside Puebla Mexico 1989
1989. Mexico Lucha Libre Lucha Libre: Arena Puebla. Puebla Mexico: January 9 1989. Printed broadside on thin newsprint paper. Measures 14" x 9.25". Bold broadside advertising a lucha libre match held at Arena Puebla on Lunes 9 de Enero de 1989 a las 9:00 p.m. The main event is billed as the "Grandiosa Reaparición de los Misioneros de la Muerte!!!" "Grandiose Reappearance of the Missionaries of Death!!!" one of the most infamous heel trios in lucha history featuring Negro Navarro Black Power and El Signo. They were matched against El Texano Dos Caras and Tamba a high-profile face team. Lucha libre first popularized in the 1930s quickly grew into one of Mexico's most enduring cultural spectacles defined by its masked heroes and villains elaborate identities and the dramatic storytelling of the ring. By the 1980s it had become a cornerstone of Mexican popular culture blending sport theater and myth in a way that resonated deeply across social classes and borders. The headlining trio on this 1989 card the Misioneros de la Muerte "Missionaries of Death" comprised Negro Navarro El Signo and Black Power. Formed in the late 1970s they were one of the most feared and influential rudo stables in lucha libre history known for their aggressive style technical skill and ability to generate massive heat with audiences. Their battles against trios like Los Brazos and Los Villanos helped define the trios match format that remains a staple of Mexican wrestling today. Revered for their role in elevating the art of the six-man tag the Misioneros are remembered as innovators who reshaped the dynamics of lucha storytelling and solidified the dominance of faction-based rivalries in the sport<br /> <br /> The undercard includes a series of celebrated names; "Los Juniors" Blue Demon Jr. Huracán Jr. and El Hijo de Black Shadow versus Kahos Lobo Rubio and Zandokan -- Valente Fernández La Mascara and El Fantasma versus Scorpio Sr. Scorpio Jr. and Barba Negra-- Kendo Star Lasser and Danny Boy versus Rizado Ruiz Ruddy Reyna and El Hijo del Diablo. Additional notes on the broadside include rules and pricing; "Todas estas luchas serán a 2 de 3 caídas sin límite de tiempo" "All these matches will be best two out of three falls no time limit" and "Las personas que arrojen objetos a los luchadores serán consignadas a las Autoridades competentes" "Anyone who throws objects at the wrestlers will be turned over to the authorities" as examples. The poster features striking black-and-white illustrations including a masked luchador with a championship belt at upper left alongside halftone portraits of individual wrestlers giving spectators a glimpse of the billed stars. Light toning and edgewear original fold creases. Overall very good condition. A scarce surviving Arena Puebla lucha libre broadside notable for headlining the Misioneros de la Muerte and featuring early appearances of Blue Demon Jr. and other "junior" heirs of Mexico's legendary masked heroes marking a generational transition in lucha libre history. unknown

MARCONIS DE NEGRE, Jacques-Etienne
Le Rameau d’or d’Eleusis
Paris: the Author 1861. Sepia lithographed frontispiece and 6 full-page sepia lithographed plates. Contemporary gilt black sheep-backed marbled boards. Minor foxing otherwise a very good copy in original condition. First edition of this privately published manual of freemasonry by the founder of the Rite of Memphis a Templar-based branch of the practice. Intended for use by novices the text covers the history of the Order from the initiation of King Solomon lists the Grand Lodges with their masters number of members and dates of foundation explains the symbols numbers and letters used in masonry iconography and details the 95 rites that members must exercise. The author describes the chants and responses said during rituals clothing to be worn for various levels of membership calendar of events insular legal system process for promotions religious concordances financial structure and differences in orders depending on their rites and locations. One of the final chapters outlines the five stages of initiation for women to become members. The ornate bistre plates illustrate legends and allegories of freemason foundational lore. <br /> Jacques-Etienne Marconis 1795-1868 was a French author and freemason. His father served in the Napoleonic army where he became obsessed with Egyptian religion and myth. Upon his return to France in 1815 he founded a freemasonry lodge called the Pilgrims of Memphis but the chapter was disbanded only one year later. He entrusted the archives to his son who reformed and revived the charter in 1839 but his small group of pilgrims failed to receive dispensation from the freemasonry governing body the Grand Orient of France. In 1859 Marconis applied again to the Grand Orient for masonic chapterhood and it was finally granted. This book represents the final iteration of the foundation of the Rite of Memphis a project that took over 40 years to come to fruition.<br /> OCLC locates no copies in U.S. libraries.<br /> Caillet 7116; Dorbon 689. the Author unknown
