First Piatigorsky Cup Program
Program for the First Piatigorsky Cup: International Grandmaster Chess Tournament July 2 to 27 1963 48 pages with photographs including photographs of the contestants table and diagrams. Octavo 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" bound in original publisher's spiral binding in blue felt wrappers with black and silver Piatigorsky Cup stamped to cover. Included nine first day tickets for the cup. Signed or inscribed by all the contestants to Mrs Piatigorsky. <br /><br />The Piatigorsky Cup was a triennial series of double round-robin grandsmaster chess tournaments held in the United States in the 1960's. Sponsored by the Piatigorsky foundation only two events were held in 1963 and 1966. the Piatigorsky Cups were the strongest U S Chess tournaments since New York 1927. Jacqueline Piatigorsky was married to cellist Gregor Piatigorsky. One of the strongest woman chess players in the U S and a regular competitor in the U S Women's Chess Championship she designed the cup and was the primary organizer of the tournaments. The prize funds were among the largest of any chess tournament up to that time. Every player was guaranteed a prize and all traveling and living expenses were paid. The First Piatigorsky Cup was held in the Ambassador Hotel Los Angeles in July 1963. The tournament field of eight included players from five countries. the soviet representatives Paul Keres and World Champion Tigran Petrosian finished equal first to share the cup with a score of 8 1/2/14 receiving more than half of the $10000 prize fund $3000 for first. Keres won most of the games in the tournament six but lost twice to Samuel Reshevsky. The Cup was Petrosian's first tournament since winning the 1963 World Championship match with Mikhail Botvinnik and was one of two first prizes he shared in his six-year reign as champion. He was the first reigning champion to play in an American tournament since Alexander Alekhine at Pasadena 1932. After losing the second round to Svetozar Gligoric Petrosian was never in danger the rest of the tournament. The remainder of the tournament field included to Americans Reshevsky and Pal Benko two Argentinians Oscar Panno and Miguel Najdorf and two Europeans Gligoric Yugoslavia and Frank Olafsson Iceland. U S Champion Bobby Fischer decline an invitation after his demand for $2000 appearance fee was refused by the tournament organizers. Gligoric led halfway through the tournament with 4 1/2/7 but scored only three draws in the last seven games and finished fifth behind Najdorf and Olafsson. Petrosian finished the strongest with 5/7 in the second half. Before the last round Petrosian led with 8 points followed by Keres with 7½ and Najdorf and Ólafsson with 7. Both Petrosian and Keres had Black in the final round. Petrosian drew his game against Reshevsky but Keres beat Gligorić to result in a tie for first place with 8½ points each.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b> Edges sunned inscriptions to front end paper and title else spiral spine cracked else very good.

KAWAGUCHI (or SUGAWARA), Yoshikazu
Banmin chiyo no ishizue Important Cautionary Firefighting Instructions for the Entire Nation
Woodcut illus. five are double-page. .5 13 .5 ads; .5 ads 17 .5; .5 ads 14 .5 folding leaves. Three vols. 8vo orig. green patterned semi-stiff wrappers orig. block-printed title labels on upper covers new stitching. Kyoto: Honya Juemon 1789.<br/> <br/> First edition and very rare; this work was written as a result of the devastating Great Kyoto Fire which broke out on 7 March 1788 and lasted several days. It caused serious damage including the destruction of the Imperial Palace and the Nijo-jo Castle. The fire so shocked the bakufu that senior councillor Sadanobu Matsudaira was sent to Kyoto to investigate and consult with the Imperial Court.<br/> <br/> The first woodcut depicts how one can prepare for a quick escape in case of fire. This single-page illustration shows how to leave one’s street clothes at nighttime so that they can be put on quickly for a fast evacuation. The first double-page illustration is a map of Kyoto where the great fire occurred. The following two double-page woodcuts show scenes of the raging fire with citizens fleeing carrying their valuables. The next two-page woodcut shows refugees of all classes on the outskirts of Kyoto moving away from the city. The final double-page woodcut shows survivors beginning to rebuild their houses.<br/> <br/> The text gives detailed instructions on how to prevent fires and in the case of a fire breaking out what to do to contain and extinguish it.<br/> <br/> The block-printed title labels read “Banmin hinoyojin chinki†“Cautionary Instructions on Containing Fires for the Entire Nationâ€.<br/> <br/> Fine copy. Minor mostly marginal worming carefully mended in the first volume. unknown

Tokyo: circa 895. . Handcolored albumen photograph. 20.3 x 26 cm. Numbered 1634.Ogawa Kazumasa aka Kazuma or Isshin 1860-1929 is considered a pioneer in the development of photography and photomechanical printing in Japan. In 1882~4 Ogawa studied portrait photography and the dry plate process in Boston. He also studied collotype printing with the Albert Type Company.

Ogawa published/distributed under the name Ogawa Shashin Seihan-jo and Ogawa Shuppanbu. In the early 1890s Ogawa incorporated the copper type printing process with the collotype process thereby making it possible to print descriptive titles on the same plate with the collotype image.

Kent Corita or Sister Mary Corita born Frances Elizabeth Kent 1918 86
AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED BY THE POP ART PIONEER
A holographic letter on Immaculate Heart College letterhead from the American Roman Catholic religious sister and Pop Art pioneer. Undated it was likely written in the mid-1960s prior to her return to secular life in 1968 as Corita Kent.<br/> <br/>The letter was written in reply to Eugene Anthony "Gene" McNerney Jr. 1899-80 a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia who worked as newspaper artist and magazine illustrator before embarking on a distinguished career in the Marine Corps. Attributing the delay in responding to her hectic schedule she writes "We're not really ungrateful - just inefficient . after teaching three successive summer sessions it almost seems tame to be back in regular session." Kent also makes reference to an ad she placed in Graphis Annual and two individuals associated with her work with the Department of Fine Arts concluding with an invitation to an open house and sale.<br/> <br/>Kent served as the chair of the Department of Fine Arts at Immaculate Heart College in Los Angeles. After the Second Vatican Council she transformed the college's annual Mary's Day procession into a community celebration which was part of the sister's campaign to bring secular people together. During this time Kent's work became increasingly political addressing events such as the Vietnam War and humanitarian crises. Incorporating brilliant colors and bold shapes her art was her activism. Tensions between the order and church leadership were mounting with the Los Angeles Archdiocese criticizing the college as "liberal" and Cardinal James McIntyre labeling Kent's work as "blasphemous" which hastened her departure from the order. Most sisters followed suit and the Immaculate Heart College closed in 1980. Kent continued to create spiritually-informed artwork primarily silkscreen or serigraphy which played an important role in the renaissance of the poster as a medium of communication and continues to influence graphic design well into the 20th century.<br/> <br/>One page 8 ½" x 11" folded into thirds for mailing. Some uneven toning; otherwise very good. unknown books
