1941ref. 0001680SITKA ALASKA AK HAVRE MONTANA USA. Very Good. 1941. On offer is a very interesting very bluntly written detailed World War II manuscript diary handwritten John C. Troy 39601846 from Havre Montana. Using a large 5½ x7 ½ x 1 ¼ premium "My Year in the Army" undated journal with his name and city gilt stamped on the cover Mr. Troy is a character and has quite some personality which he unabashedly shares with his diary. Using the free endpapers he sets the tone when he writes: "Sitka Alaska The home of many fishermen. It has four bars three whore houses three whiskey stores and three cafes. When it's the army's pay day one has a hard time in finding room in any of them." For the most part the book is about 90% diary but as it is undated he uses it as a 'catchall' too - names addresses autographs drawings maps poetry transcribed songs and much much more. He also peppers the narrative with little stickers much like small postcards all of the Sitka area. He writes as little as a paragraph sometimes many pages on a particular day. Beginning with "Here it is the army life and likes and dislikes of it." he starts on April 10th 1941 declaring the "largest hangover of my life" through to late April 1942 all the while in Naval Air Station Sitka. He writes on every facing page and then doubles back when he reaches the end creating a massive 300 pages in all. This is one of the most interesting manuscript relics of World War II we have ever had the pleasure of reading. Overall VG.; 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF JOHN C.

ref. 391970San Francisco 1980. Unbound. Near Fine. Collage paste-ups for seven flyers created and obtained from artist Eddie Troia for shows at The Temple aka The Temple Beautiful and The Geary Temple in San Francisco in 1979 and early 1980. Cut and paste elements on letter and legal sized sheets some with holograph text written with white out on overlays. Some elements with typical rippling from paste near fine. A collection of paste-ups documenting punk shows at The Temple an old Synagogue near the Fillmore and the Jim Jones Temple which became a punk venue in 1979 but ceased having punk shows the following year. The building was damaged by the 1989 earthquake and was subsequently torn down. The mock-ups are for shows by quite a cross section of the punk avant-garde and industrial bands in SF at the time with shows by Impatient Youth Flamin' Groovies Alley Cats Suburban Lawns No Alternative Minimal Man The Offs Mutants X Subhumans Mondellos Roy Loney & The Phantom Movers Soul Rebels Dead Kennedys Phone Bill Zeroes Sleepers and B People. Eddie Troia was a playwright artist and manager for Jane Dornbacker. His art is characterized by a sure use of confident holograph titles with well-chosen images from pop culture contrasted with a cleanness resulting from the skillful use of glassine overlay. Striking and beautiful artwork documenting a very important but short-lived venue of the era as well as a valuable look at the graphic techniques of flyer creation before the computer. It is getting more and more difficult to find original mock-ups from meaningful performances especially in a grouping. unknown
1626ref. 4177Venice: Giovanni Antonio Giuliani 1626. 16mo 142 x 99 mm. Collation: A-G16 G16 blank removed. 222 pages. Double column small roman types. Large woodcut on title 20 small woodcuts in the text printed from four blocks two used once each the others repeated. Printing flaw A9v. A couple of tiny marginal tears slight creasing to leaves at end. 20th-century tree-marbled glazed paper over flexible pasteboards. Provenance: “Bagio” inscription on front pastedown; Ex fondatione Giorgii --- illegible ownership inscription on title. Unrecorded edition of a popular verse account of the fall of Troy. Part of the “prehistory of the Italian romance epic” Everson the Trojan tale circulated in several versions during the late medieval period. Like the other Italian versions this anonymous poem in 20 cantos in ottava rima may have been loosely based on the 13th-century Latin prose narrative Historia Troiana by Guido delle Colonne. Both poems emphasize Rome’s Trojan lineage. The earliest recorded edition of this version dates to 1483 GW 12519 1 extant copy an inconvenient fact for a later attribution to the poet Jacopo di Carlo who was in fact the printer of the 1491 edition. In the sixteenth century the educated classes enjoyed the tale which was sometimes even read in schools. The spread of literacy stimulated the production of cheaper chapbook editions like this one thriftily printed in very small types with repeated impressions of the woodblocks of battle scenes. The larger title cut printed from a worn block which is missing part of the border shows a small skirmish of soldiers in medieval armor. Editions appeared throughout the 17th century mainly in Venice but also in Padua and Verona. Together ICCU and OCLC list thirteen 16th and 17th century editions from 1562 to 1671 NOT including this one. All are rare.
