Distribution in turn was aided by Frances Steloff at the Gotham Book Mart. <br /> <br /> The works Gemor published--eight titles all together six of them by Nin herself--were frequently illustrated by Nin's husband Hugh Parker Guiler who went under the pseudonym Ian Hugo. The colophon in this work notes that Hugo "used the tecnique sic which William Blake called 'revealed' because it was revealed to him by his brother in a dream. This is the first time this technique as developed by S.W. Hayter has been employed since Blake invented it." <br /> <br /> Winter of Artifice was first published by the Obelisk Press in 1939 but the contents were revised for this edition which Nin's bibliographer Benjamin Franklin yes that's right claims is one of the hardest to date. Nin's diary usefully notes that the work was delivered fully bound on May 15 1942. <br /> <br /> Franklin A3b. Gemor Press unknown

Bello Civili Hug Grotii Farnabii Notis Integris Et Variorum Selectissimis Accurante corn. schrevelio
London: Prostant Venales 1818. Leather. Very Good. 9" by 5.5". None. A comprehensive scholarly edited copy of Lucan's famed epic poem 'Pharsalia' or 'De Bello Civili'. A New Edition of this work. This poem details the war between Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great's Roman senate forces. 'De Bello Civili' was the manuscript name for this work. It is also known as 'The Parsalia' and commemorates the decisive victory of Caesar during the Battle of Pharsalus Thessaly Northern Greece in 48BC. It was started in 61 AD and enjoyed widespread circulation until due to a falling out between the Emperor Nero and Lucan the work was banned by Nero. Edited by and with notes by Hugo Grotius a Dutch jurist and economical theologist. With further review by Cornelis Schrevel a Dutch physician and scholar. Lucan was a Roman poet from Hispania Baetica. He is often seen as one of the most prominent figures of the Imperial Latin period. He found great success compared to other poets with his youth and speedy writing on his side. Lucan was once friends with the great emperor Nero but they fell out after Nero forbade the publication of many of his poems. Lucan later joined the Gaius Calpurnius Piso conspiracy against Nero. Once this was discovered he committed suicide. In a full calf binding. Externally rubbed to the joints and extremities. Patches of rubbing to the joints. Fading to the board edges. Prior owner's inscription to the recto of front endpaper Hafel. Internally firmly bound. Pages are generally bright with just the odd spots. Very Good Prostant Venales hardcover
