1955réf. 414208Cambridge Massachusetts: The Poets' Theatre Workshop 1955. Hardcover. Good. Broadside illustrated in color on stiff cardstock. Measuring 10.25" x 13.75". Two incorrectly used printed apostrophes are whited-out by hand some horizontal creases and a small light stain near very good. Poster for Manning’s stage adaptation of Joyce’s novel that Manning arranged in 1955 as The Voice of Shem. Manning was a regular cast member at the Abbey Theatre a playwright and was a filmmaker. After a distinguished career in Ireland she moved to Boston where she served as managing director of the Idler Theatre at Radcliffe College in the 1940s and was one of the founding members of the Poet’s Theatre in Cambridge in 1950. The poster notes that tickets were on sale at the Mandrake Book Store on Boylston Street in Cambridge. Interesting period-style illustration of a beer quaffer blathering over the cantilevered corpse of Finnegan. The original performances were in April of 1955; this return engagement ran for little more than a week in late November and early December 1955. OCLC locates no copies of the poster although copies of Manning's adaptation in book form published by the Harvard University Press are plentiful. We found a black and white rendition of the poster image online on a French blog but could find no illuminating information there. Presumably these posters would have been extremely ephemeral.

The assemblage contains photographs and ephemera related to the dancing career of Joyce Pickens. Originally from New York Pickens traveled the United States and Canada performing at clubs and supplementing her income by staying on in some cities to teach the newest dance crazes to hip citizens. In an offprint of an article from a May 1964 Toronto Daily is a discussion of how the Discotheque trend had arrived from Paris and Pickens had stayed on to teach the dances dubbing her "Toronto's original discotheque girl." They quote her as saying "We're headed into another era like the 'roaring twenties.' When the big bands died people gave up going out to dance except at private parties. Now with the discotheque they can have all the variety and sounds they want. everything at the flick of a turntable switch." The photos show Pickens posing in a variety of costumes as a cowgirl a flamenco dress even a bikini and in numerous clubs and venues including California's Moulin Rouge Club. Also tipped in are business cards for some of the backing bands that she danced with such as Alfredito and his Mambo Orchestra Barry Del Rae and Andrew Alvarez. There are also a handful of curious drawings one of a hand-colored treasure map another pencil drawing labeled "Holiday Inn." The end of the album has small newspaper clippings containing advertising for costumers and nightclubs. An interesting and plentiful collection of the earliest gestation phase of the disco area. hardcover books

Slocum & Cahoon A-43. ◆Glassine a little wrinkled one corner just lightly bumped otherwise A PRISTINE COPY. This is a fragment from "Finnegans Wake" beautifully printed in Holland on thick paper using an unusually large round and vaguely Medieval typeface. Our copy could hardly be in better condition--as close to mint as one could hope to find and with all original components. Joyce's daughter Lucia 1907-82 was diagnosed with schizophrenia when in her early twenties and was permanently institutionalized by 1935. She had desperately tried and failed to become a dancer and Joyce was determined to find a new artistic outlet for her believing it would be therapeutic. He hit upon the design of ornamental capitals like this one and even went so far as to give publishers the money to pay her for her work. Gotham Book Mart unknown books

1944réf. 55458New York: Harcourt Brace and Company 1944. First printing. Near fine in a very good plus jacket. Inscribed first edition association copy of this effort to unpuzzle Joyce's famously inscrutable masterpiece - signed to the famed Jungian analyst Erlo van Waveren. Erlo van Waveren practiced psychotherapy in New York with his wife Ann for more than four decades. Both studied with Carl Jung and were regular attendees at the Jung Institute. Campbell himself was famously influenced by Jung and edited an edition of his work an influence heavily reflected in this Campbell's first book which investigates Joyce's "monomyth" an idea deeply indebted to the renowned psychologist's idea of the "collective unconscious." The van Waverans were also instrumental in the establishment of the Bollingen Series which published Campbell's most important work THE HERO WITH A THOUSAND FACES. It was Elro and Ann who introduced Paul and Amy Mellon benefactors of the series to Jung after whose Bollingen Tower the series was named and whose work served as its driving influence. A warm and significant association. 8'' x 5.25''. Original green cloth boards. Original price-clipped yellow printed dust jacket. 2 xiv 366 2 pages. Inscribed by Campbell on the front endpaper: "For / Erlo van Waveren / unconscious and all / from / Joseph Campbell." Jacket with touches of sunning edgewear. Couple of faint spots of soll.
