GERSHWIN, George & Ira; BRICUSSE, Leslie
George and Ira Gershwin Song Book The
New York: Simon and Schuster 1960. A Superb Association Copy Across Two Generations of Great Songwriters<br /> Inscribed by Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse<br /> A First Day Cover Signed by Ira and with a Clipped Signature of George<br /> And an Original Sketch by Ira<br /> <br /> GERSHWIN George & Ira. The George and Ira Gershwin Song Book. Foreword by Ira Gershwin. Illustrated by Milton Glaser. Arrangements by Dr. Albert Sirmay. New York: Simon and Schuster 1960.<br /> <br /> First edition first printing. Folio 12 x 9 inches; 305 x 229 mm. xiv 178 pp. Illustrated throughout with bold color designs by Milton Glaser. <br /> <br /> Spiral bound quarter orange cloth over black cloth boards front cover decoratively stamped and lettered in blind spine lettered in black. Spine slightly faded otherwise near fine. Housed in the original slightly worn color pictorial slipcase.<br /> <br /> A superb inscribed copy from the library of Leslie Bricusse enriched with a George Gershwin First Day Cover envelope signed and with a sketch by Ira.<br /> <br /> On the verso of the front free endpaper is mounted a First Day Cover February 28 1973 honoring George Gershwin signed in black ink by Ira Gershwin together with a carefully pasted clipped signature of George Gershwin uniting the brothers once again in a single presentation.<br /> <br /> On the color title-page Ira Gershwin has inscribed:<br /> "For Leslie Bricusse / with admiration / and all best - From sketch Ira Gershwin / Beverly Hills Nov. 4 '68"<br /> <br /> The sketch depicts a small stylized bowing figure - rendered in quick fluid lines - leaning forward in a gesture of theatrical deference. Rather than a portrait it is best understood as one of Ira Gershwin's characteristic spontaneous doodles: whimsical understated and gently performative. The figure reads almost as a self-effacing stage bow - an elegant visual flourish that mirrors the tone of the inscription itself. Such drawings when present add a distinct personal dimension to Gershwin inscriptions and are highly prized.<br /> <br /> This copy embodies a rare and meaningful intersection of three major figures in twentieth-century musical theater:<br /> George Gershwin - whose music defined an era; Ira Gershwin - custodian of that legacy and voice of its refinement<br /> and Leslie Bricusse - heir to that tradition bridging Broadway and the modern musical.<br /> <br /> The layered inscriptions correspondence and added materials create a dialogue across decades - transforming the volume from a musical anthology into a living document of artistic lineage.<br /> <br /> A deeply evocative association copy - uniting autograph material presentation inscription and original artwork-linking the Gershwins directly to one of their most important successors.<br /> <br /> A copy that transcends its bibliographical importance to become a piece of musical and cultural history. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1960 unknown

George Gershwin Inscribed Special Detroit Symphony Concert Display Program.
Detroit January 20 1937. Special Detroit Symphony Concert display program featuring Gershwin as conductor and pianist. One page small octavo Special Detroit Symphony Concert display program selections of 'Porgy and Bess' and 'Rhapsody in Blue' clipped and adhered to the front advertisements to the rear. Presentation copy inscribed by George Gershwin "to Charlotte Good wishes George Gershwin." In near fine condition with a few tiny punctures and light corner creasing. The piece is 5.5 inches by 8.75 inches. Famed musician George Gershwin signed this program only six months before his death. The Special Detroit Symphony Concert featuring Gershwin conducting and on the piano highlighted some of his best work including 'Rhapsody in Blue' and 'Porgy and Bess.' The concert was well-received and Gershwin was invited to perform the next season; however after Gershwin returned to Beverly Hills to prepare for another concert he began to suffer blinding headaches and a recurring impression that he smelled burning rubber. At his Los Angeles performance on February 11 1937 Gershwin normally a superb pianist suffered coordination problems and blackouts during the concert. These headaches and olfactory hallucinations continued for months until his collapse and subsequent coma. In the early hours of July 11 1937 doctors at Cedars removed a large brain tumor but unfortunately Gershwin died that morning at the age of 38. unknown

George Gershwin's Song Book
New York: Random House 1932. A Superb Association Copy Across Two Generations of Great Songwriters<br /> Signed by George Gershwin and Inscribed by Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse<br /> <br /> GERSHWIN George composer. George Gershwin's Song Book. Illustrated by Constantin Alajalov. New York: Random House 1932.<br /> <br /> Limited first edition one of 300 copies signed by George Gershwin and Alajalov this being copy No. 201.<br /> <br /> Large quarto 12 3/4 x 9 1/2 inches; 324 x 241 mm. Frontispiece portrait photograph of Gershwin at the piano by Maurice Goldberg. xii 160 pp. followed by an 8-page bibliography. Profusely illustrated with striking full-page color designs by Alajalov. Complete with the often-missing 8-page sewn booklet containing the song "Mischa Yascha Toscha Sascha" here preserved in the rear pocket.<br /> <br /> Publisher's full blue morocco expertly and almost invisibly rebacked with the original spine laid down covers decoratively ruled and lettered in gilt with characteristic sweeping gilt lines extending from spine and fore-edge blue endpapers top edge gilt. Front inner hinge with neat reinforcement. <br /> <br /> A handsome and well-preserved copy of a book seldom encountered in superior condition. Exceptionally accompanied by the original color pictorial dust jacket from the trade edition - an unusual and highly desirable survival.<br /> <br /> Additionally inscribed by Ira Gershwin on the limitation page: "To Leslie Bricusse / With unlimited admiration and affection / From Ira Gershwin / Beverly Hills June 1973."<br /> <br /> Accompanied by a loosely inserted fine typed letter signed TLS from Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse dated June 13 1973 in which Gershwin warmly congratulates Bricusse on his score for Feeling No Pain and notes with characteristic wit that he has "taken the liberty" of adding his signature to the page already signed by his brother and Alajalov humorously expressing the hope that this "doesn't decrease the value of the book."<br /> <br /> One of the most celebrated American musical publications of the twentieth century George Gershwin's Song Book represents the composer's work at its most refined and enduring. Issued in a luxurious limited format it brings together a selection of Gershwin's finest songs drawn from Broadway and Hollywood arranged for piano and voice and presented with the vivid and sophisticated color illustrations of Constantin Alajalov whose work lends the volume a distinctive Art Deco elegance.<br /> <br /> Signed examples are always sought after; however the present copy is elevated far beyond the norm by its remarkable association. The inscription from Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse links two of the most important figures in twentieth-century songwriting. Bricusse an Academy Award - winning lyricist and composer was responsible for such enduring works as Stop the World-I Want to Get Off The Roar of the Greasepaint The Smell of the Crowd Doctor Dolittle and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory as well as songs including "What Kind of Fool Am I" "Feeling Good" "Goldfinger" and "Pure Imagination." Their longstanding friendship is reflected in the warmth of the inscription -"unlimited admiration and affection" - a phrase that speaks to genuine personal regard rather than formality.<br /> <br /> Provenance: From the collection of Leslie Bricusse assembled over many decades with the close involvement of David Brass who first met Bricusse in 1968 and remained a trusted advisor and friend until his death in 2021.<br /> <br /> A copy of exceptional depth and character: not merely a signed limited edition but a document of musical lineage linking the Gershwins to one of their most distinguished successors. Rarely does a copy so clearly embody both the artistic achievement of its creators and the enduring influence of their work. New York: Random House, 1932 unknown

Original printed wrappers; near fine.<br /> <br /> Inscribed by Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse:<br /> "For Leslie B. From Ira G. / Feb. 1971 / Beverly Hills."<br /> <br /> A Musical Lineage in Print:<br /> A deeply evocative association set uniting three defining figures in American and British musical theater. The 1938 Armitage volume - long regarded as the most important early tribute to George Gershwin - is here transformed into a personal artifact through Ira Gershwin's inscription and accompanying letter to Leslie Bricusse.<br /> <br /> The accompanying 1937 Hollywood Bowl Memorial Concert program issued only weeks after Gershwin's death captures the immediate cultural response to his passing. Preserved for more than three decades it was later gifted by Ira to Bricusse - an act that resonates as a symbolic passing of the torch.<br /> <br /> That Ira Gershwin should present both the definitive early book on his brother and a contemporary memorial document to Leslie Bricusse - himself one of the great lyricists of the next generation - creates a compelling narrative of artistic continuity.<br /> <br /> The accompanying letter adds a further layer of intimacy revealing a warm collegial exchange between two masters of song.<br /> <br /> An Exceptional Association Copy - A rare convergence of:<br /> The key early Gershwin monograph 1938<br /> A contemporary memorial artifact 1937<br /> A signed presentation linking directly to Leslie Bricusse<br /> A supporting autograph letter providing context and warmth.<br /> <br /> Together these elements form a museum-level association grouping preserving a tangible thread between the golden age of American songwriting and its distinguished successor.

A fine unusually well-preserved example.<br /> <br /> Loosely inserted is an original typed letter on Doubleday letterhead dated May 11 1987 signed by Harold Kuebler Senior Editor and addressed to:<br /> <br /> Liza Minnelli<br /> c/o Creative Management Associates<br /> New York<br /> The letter announces the forthcoming publication of Edward Jablonski's biography and solicits Minnelli's endorsement noting: Jablonski's nearly fifty-year engagement with the Gershwin circle; His correspondence with Ira Gershwin; Use of Gershwin Archives material interview tapes and unpublished photographs and the publisher's hope that Minnelli might provide a supporting quotation.<br /> Stamped "Received May 22 1987 Michael R. Black" indicating internal agency handling.<br /> <br /> An appealing and context-rich pre-publication artifact linking the scholarly authority of Edward Jablonski with the living performance tradition of Gershwin interpretation embodied by Liza Minnelli.<br /> <br /> Advance Uncorrected Proofs are by nature ephemeral - produced in small numbers for reviewers insiders and promotional outreach. What elevates this example is the surviving publisher's letter which captures a precise moment in the book's launch strategy: Doubleday actively seeking validation from leading performers closely associated with the American musical canon.<br /> <br /> Minnelli as daughter of Judy Garland and a major interpreter of the Great American Songbook represents exactly the sort of cultural authority the publisher hoped to enlist. The letter thus provides a fascinating window into the marketing and reception of Gershwin's legacy in the late twentieth century. Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, Inc., 1987 unknown

GERSHWIN, George & Ira; JABLONSKI, Edward; STEWART, Lawrence D; BRICUSSE, Leslie
Gershwin Years The
New York: Doubleday & Company 1973. From Ira of The Gershwin Years" - Inscribed to "Leslie of The Bricusse Years"<br /> <br /> GERSHWIN George & Ira. The Gershwin Years. By Edward Jablonski and Lawrence D. Stewart. Introduction by Carl Van Vechten. New York: Doubleday & Company 1973. <br /> <br /> First edition. Quarto 10 1/4 x 7 1/8 inches; 260 x 181 mm. 1-10 11-416 pp. Publisher's maroon cloth spine lettered in gilt blue endpapers. In the original pictorial dust jacket light rubbing at extremities. A near fine copy.<br /> <br /> Inscribed on the half-title in a bold expansive hand:<br /> <br /> "To Leslie / of The Bricusse Years - / From Ira / of The Gershwin Years - / With admiration / Ira Gershwin / Beverly Hills / Sept. 26 1973."<br /> <br /> A superb witty and highly personal inscription from Ira Gershwin to Leslie Bricusse playfully aligning Bricusse's career with that of the Gershwin brothers.<br /> <br /> A particularly choice composer-to-composer association copy uniting:<br /> <br /> The Gershwin legacy - arguably the defining partnership of American popular song with Leslie Bricusse among the most successful lyricists of the postwar era Willy Wonka Doctor Dolittle Goldfinger.<br /> <br /> The inscription is not merely cordial but cleverly self-referential transforming the book's title into a compliment -"The Bricusse Years" - a subtle passing of the torch from one great lyricist to another.<br /> <br /> Given Bricusse's close ties to major figures of the American musical theater tradition copies with this level of personal engagement are distinctly uncommon and carry strong cross-collecting appeal music film Broadway and Hollywood.<br /> <br /> The Gershwin Years remains one of the most substantial early biographies of the Gershwin brothers richly illustrated and drawing on extensive documentation including material relating to Porgy and Bess.
