Murphy, Christopher Leo; Taylor, John K.(editor)
Facts, Fiction & Philately - United States of America & Canada
145 pages including index. A collection of historic curiosities that are, or may be, associated with North American postage stamps. For the stories presented in this work, numerous dusty history books and reference works have been researched for those little "gems" of information that present the "other side" to generally accepted beliefs and conceptions. Very often, historic information is based on what others wish us to believe rather than the truth. It is only through the passage of time that the shroud of deception wears thin and mouths silenced in death "speak from their graves" in tattered letters and faded diaries. Adds a new dimension to topical stamp collecting by introducting "Philatelic Curiosities" - strange, unusual and bizarre facts associated with postage stamps. Illustrated in black and white. Clean and unmarked with very light wear. Excellent copy. Book

Structures for Behaviour: New Sculptures By Robert Morris, David Rabinowitch, Richard Serra and George Trakas: Art Gallery of Ontario 13 May - 9 July 1978
132 pages. Black and white photographic plates throughout. "...Celebrates the work of four contemporary sculptors who by continually questioning the premises of their work have established major international reputations and have made some of the most prominent and challenging contributions to such forums as last year's Documents 6 in Kassel, West Germany... This exhibition will pose challenges to more traditional ways of viewing sculpture by asking that we cast ourselves as complete participants within the space of the sculptures in order to become vulnerable to the experience they offer". - from the foreward by William J. Withrow, Director, Art Gallery of Ontario. Light edgewear to grey card covers. Unmarked. Book
