Webster, Richard - RARE FIRST PRINTING HARDBACK
Why Freud Was Wrong : Sin Science and Psychoanalysis
Basic Books 1995 A slightly damaged copy; there is what looks like a machine fault at the base of two pages. The title page and the contents page have nearly identical small tears about half an inch long. They affect nothing in terms of content but this does affect the price. What is normally twice the price asked here is a bargain for someone. A justly celebrated look at Freud by a former 'disciple'. Binding is tight and book looks unread. Perfect jacket protected. Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine. Basic Books hardcover

Werkman, Hendrik Nicolaas [Posth.] / Henkels, F.R.A / Martin, Kurt / Grieshaber, HAP / et al
Hommage à Werkman [Hendrik Nicolaas Werkman]
A posthumous homage to Dutch typographer and artist Hendrik Nicolaas Werkman, publisher of the magazine "The Next Call" and pioneer in the art of avant-garde printing. As a member of the Dutch resistance in World War II, Werkman operated an illegal printing press and was shot by the Gestapo in 1945. His colleagues and peers compiled this homage book more than a decade later to commemorate his work. The book contains both examples of Werkman's own art prints, as well as art and text from the many contributors - totaling around 100 distinct pieces of artwork from all involved, as well as multiple pieces of artistically-arranged texts about (or related to) Werkman. Contributors include F.R.A Henkels, W. Sandberg, Kurt Martin, HAP Grieshaber, H.L. Greve, Riccarda Gregor, Herbert Schwobel, Emil Kiess, Raoul Ubac, Wilhelm Geyer, Walter Renz, Werner Oberle, Fritz Ruoff, and the students of the Karlsruhe academy of arts. [ATTRIBUTES:] 295x210mm. ~120 unnumbered pages. Beige board hardcover with tan cloth spine. A reproduction of the cover of issue #9 of "The Next Call" appears on the front cover. [CONDITION:] Cover corners bumped and mildly worn. Front cover very lightly scratched. Otherwise, this loving homage to a pioneer and martyr is in very good condition.

First edition, 61, [1 blank]pp., the text appears in Dutch and French on facing pages, 4 folding plates, marbled endpapers, recent full green calf by Gray of Cambridge (note in pencil by Bernard H. Breslauer to this affect), spine gilt, unopened, uncut. "Containing the first full and authoritative account of the Muller stereotyping process, the earliest known (save the doubtful claim of Valleyre); preceeding Ged's experiments by a comfortable margin. It was overlooked or ignored by the 19th-century historians, who dismissed Muller's products as merely soldered forms of type metal. Its existence was unknown to me or my expert advisor when I was preparing William Ged and the Invention of Stereotype (The Library, 1960). Its significance was recognized (through Ellic Howe's copy) by Percy Muir in 1963". (John Carter). Bigmore & Wyman, III. p.78. From the library of Bernard H. Breslauer.

Wilde, Oscar.
THE PORTRAIT OF MR W. H.
75p. Title page printed in red and black. Printed on Japan vellum. Partially unopened. Small 24mo. Original stiff printed Japan vellum wraps with large red initial on front cover. Slightly soiled. Limited Edition of only 425 copies. Third Edition. Nice example." The story is about an attempt to uncover the identity of Mr W.H., the enigmatic dedicatee of Shakespeare's Sonnets. It is based on a theory, originated by Thomas Tyrwhitt, that the Sonnets were addressed to one Willie Hughes, portrayed in the story as a boy actor who specialized in playing women in Shakespeare's company. This theory depends on the assumption that the dedicatee is also the Fair Youth who is the subject of most of the poems. The only evidence for this theory is a number of sonnets (such as Sonnet 20) that make puns on the words 'Will' and 'Hues." - Wiki. Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. Today he is remembered for his epigrams, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, his plays, and the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death. - Wiki. PRESS/W39. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
