2012ref. CC.1A.EFirst Edition. New. One of 26 Lettered copies. Signed by the printer and the illustrator. The Lettered Deluxe issue printed on Crisbrook Waterleaf handmade paper is in loose imperial quartos with hand-marbled paper-wrappers and presented in a cloth-covered slip-case. The first-ever appearance in print of James Joyce's story for children The Cats of Copenhagen in a special edition of 200 copies limited to 26 Lettered copies 170 Numbered copies & 4 copies Hors Commerce. Exquisite surprising and with a keen almost anarchic subtext The Cats of Copenhagen is a slightly younger twin sister to The Cat and the Devil the only other known example of James Joyce writing a story for young children. Both works penned within a few weeks of each other in 1936 are in letters posted to his only grandchild Stephen James Joyce. Michael Caine has printed this large-format letterpress edition with virtuoso skill setting the text in a wondrously expressive array of original early twentieth-century hand-cut Italian and French founts to capture the imagination of readers young and old. Casey Sorrow brings to life Joyce's curious 'Københavnere' with ingeniously playful pen-and-ink drawings specially commissioned and printed by typographique cliché. The Lettered Deluxe issue printed on the last sheets of Crisbrook Waterleaf from the renowned and now historic Barcham Green handmade papermakers is in loose imperial quartos with paper-wrappers of Christopher Rowlatt's hand-marbled fantasia and presented in a vibrant cloth-covered slip-case.

1925ref. 11317New York: Viking Press 1925. Sixth printing. Hardcover. Very good /very good. Octavo 299pp. A crisp clean very good or better copy in the publisher's blue cloth stamped in blind on the front board with gilt spine title. In the scarce dust jacket also stating "Sixth Printing" with some small chips to the spine ends darkening to the spine panel and a medium piece flapping at the base of the spine though intact; still very good and with no sophistications. Publisher's $2.00 price present on both the spine and the front flap. Joyce's first novel is very uncommon in the early printings and this sixth overall American printing represents the first done by Viking executed in the first year of that company's existence and as such one of its first publications. Heubsch which had published "Portrait" up to this point was acquired by Viking that same year and thus took over future reprints. Decidedly uncommon in dust jacket and--while a notable edition on its own--certainly also an appealing placeholder for anyone saving their pennies for the first American printing in dust jacket which will set one back five figures.

ref. 14180Shelton CT: First Edition Library 1983. Limited Edition. Softcover. Fine. Varying sizes; three books in four total volumes housed in publisher's clamshell boxes with applied leather labels as issued. A very fine set with no flaws except for very gentle bumps to some corners of the clamshell boxes; still a lovely gift-quality set. Each of these three books was published in Paris in English and distributed in a discreet or clandestine manner due to being banned in the United States or United Kingdom due to explicit sexual content. All three are very difficult to locate in fine unrestored condition and each commands very high prices at auction or in the trade. As such these facsimiles which are exact replicas almost to the millimeter of the first editions are adequate budget-friendly substitutes or placeholders. Though issued as a set we tend to find copies of these titles sold individually and they are often mistakenly broken up by unwitting booksellers or estate liquidators. A pleasingly intact set.

The type was entirely reset in the eighth printing to incorporate a variety of textual corrections with those plates used through the eleventh printing issued in 1930. The novel was originally issued in 1922 in a limited run of 1000 copies. Slocum & Cahoon pp. 25-26 Condition and Description: Octavo ~7.5 x 6.75" publisher's blue wrappers printed in white 735 pp. Wrappers rubbed. Flaking to the paper at the joints and extremities most heavily to the crown. Tanning to the edges and spine. Wrappers remain attached but with two short splits at the ends of the rear joint as shown in the final two photos. Binding firm. Pages tanned but clean without any prior owner's markings. "History Stephen said is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake." Ulysses is widely regarded as one of the best and most defining novels of the century. Despite its later canonization the novel was widely banned upon release with distribution relying on subterfuge and smuggling operations to evade law enforcement. Despite these efforts large portions of the first February 1922 and second October 1922 printings were seized and destroyed. All but a handful of the third printing January 1923 met the same fate. Many copies were stripped of their recognizable wrappers or rebound into the new covers of unrelated titles as camouflage. The novel would not be legalized in the United States until 1933 and the United Kingdom in 1936. Copies from the 1920s are relics of an era when free speech in the arts was under threat.

The second edition of the first work of economics in English consciously intended to be used as a textbook: as the author himself notes in a preliminary 'advertisement' the work was to be 'found convenient as a text book in those institutions of liberal education in which the "Wealth of Nations" makes an essential branch of their letters'. A lucid abridgement by English radical Jeremiah Joyce 1763-1816 of Scottish philosopher Adam Smith's monumental Wealth of nations it condensed the two thick quartos of the original edition London 1776 or the by then well known bulky triple-decker octavo editions of the late eighteenth century into a single convenient octavo volume.

The project was then taken over by Joyce's German publisher Rhein-Verlag who held a competition to find a translator for Ulysses. The competition was won by Georg Goyert and in August 1926 he met with Joyce in Ostend to revise the text. The publication was successful and on 19 November Joyce sent a postcard to Claud W. Sykes stating that 'The edition was sold out in 3 weeks' J. Joyce op. cit. III p.167. The limited edition of 1000 copies for sale was issued in a half morocco binding as here and in green wrappers; as Slocum and Cahoon note 'The emphasis on the private nature of the publication and the strict limitation of copies was caused by some fear . that Ulysses might be subject to censorship'. This was the first time Ulysses was translated into another language. A French edition followed in 1929.The Quentin Keyes copy sold at Christies in 2004 for 4200 pounds. Slocum and Cahoon D-45.2.".

1955ref. 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.
