‎Bradbury Ray novel; Mugnaini Joseph artwork‎

‎THE HALLOWEEN KITE" - ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATION FROM THE HALLOWEEN TREE‎

‎N.p.: S.i. 1972. Original illustration by Joseph Mugnaini rendered in pen & ink on white stock measuring 10 1/8" x 7.5"; tastefully and archivally matted and framed behind plexiglass to an overall size of 13 1/8" x 11.5". Original holograph caption presumed in Mugnaini's hand mounted on verso of frame reading: "Page 40 "the kite slowly ascended the cold river of flowing air". Near Fine. Accompanied by a letter of provenance by the author's daughter Alexandra Bradbury. Offered together with an early printing of The Halloween Tree in Currey's "B" binding without dustjacket as issued - a Fine copy excepting some pinpoint wear to extremities - signed by both Bradbury and Mugnaini on the half-title page and again by Mugnaini following the dedication page. Superb original illustration by Joseph Anthony Mugnaini 1912-1992 distinguished Italian-American artist and illustrator and a friend and collaborator of Ray Bradbury's since the early 1950's. A key illustration from The Halloween Tree a beloved work which has transcended the children's book genre since it was first published in 1972. The "Halloween Kite" was the vehicle by which the main characters travel to the Halloween's of years past. Mugnaini's caption slightly re-worded by Bradbury appears on p.43 of the book with the illustration appearing on the following page: "And the kite slowly ascended the cold river of swift flowing air each boy in turn seized with the whim spurred by his wits became more and yet more of the tail." The illustration was particularly significant to Bradbury as it hung on the wall in his southern California home for more than 40 years; nine years after publication when Bradbury and Mugnaini were planning what images would appear in their portfolio Ten Views of the Moon Bradbury had his friend re-create the Halloween Kite for one of the lithographs ultimately titled "Halloween." Provenance: From the private collection of Ray Bradbury from ca.1972-2014 and acquired directly from the Bradbury estate. S.i. unknown‎

Very Good. 195 pp. ; Edition Schott; 3586 ; hrsg. von Hans Breuer unter Mitw. vieler Wandervögel ; M. Genehmigung d. Verl. Friedrich Hofmeoster Leipzig ; OCLC: 175109122 ; This distinctly German songbook was published by the physician Hans Breuer who in 1904 as a medical student influenced by the then-popular Wandervogel movement began wandering the countryside in his free time gathering folk songs. By 1908 he had published the first set of these in Darmstadt as Der Zupfgeigenhansl or "The Pick-Fiddle John". The publishing history of Der Zupfgeigenhansl is extremely convoluted but in later editions the collection usually contains about 260 songs and is divided into 16 themes: Parting -- Minnedienst or Chivalry -- Love Plaints -- Ballads -- Sacred Songs -- Evensongs -- Joy -- Summer -- Journeying SOngs -- Sea Songs -- Parlor Songs -- Soldier's Songs -- Festive Songs -- Rural Songs -- Dance -- Rounds. A number of the songs in these later editions were gathered from song collecting i n the field others were collected from older published sources but the main source was the songbooks published by Böhme as well as works by Herder Zuccalmaglio's German Folksongs and some from Das Knaben Wunderhorn by Brentano and Arnim plus t he Deutschen Liederhort by Erk and Böhme. Also the older manuscript sources like the Carmina Burana or the Lochamer Liederbuch have contributed a few items. ; green cloth with black lettering ; no dustacket ; previous owner inscription on fornt endpaper ; foxing ; chord chart at back ; silhouettes in black throughout ; VG Mainz : Schott ; Frankfurt am Main : mit Genehmigung des Verlages Friedrich Hofmeister, [1950]. hardcover‎
