1931réf. 112417Garden City NY: Doubleday Doran & Company Inc 1931. First edition of Emmett Dalton's autobiography. Octavo original cloth with smoking gun vignette to the front panel pictorial endpapers frontispiece portrait of Emmett Dalton after a photograph taken in 1892. Signed by the author on the half-title page "Sincerely yours Emmett Dalton." Near fine in the rare original dust jacket with light rubbing. The Dalton brothers led one of the last gangs of horseback outlaws. Ironically three of them - Bob Grant and Emmett - started their careers as deputy marshals. They soon decided that more money could be made from horse rustling and in 1888 they organized a band that carried on a thriving trade. When they came under suspicion toward the end of 1890 the brothers went to California where on February 6 1891 at the small station of Aila they held up a Los Angeles-bound passenger train. The robbery failed when the baggage clerk excaped and the Daltons were unable to break into the safe. Grat was captured and sentenced to twenty years in prison but escaped from the train carrying him to Folsom. The gang resumed operations in Oklahoma where during the next two years they robbed three trains before turning to the more lucrative trade of bank robbery. Modeling their plans on the James brothers the Daltons struck the two banks at Coffeyville Kansas on October 5 1892 hoping as Bob said "to beat anything Jesse James ever did - rob two banks at once in broad daylight." However the identical fate that befell the James gang at Northfield Minnesota awaited the Daltons. Confronted with a large crowd of armed townsfolk the gang attempted to shoot its way to safety; in the battle Bob Gat and two other gang members were killed and Emmett was severely wounded and captured. It is the basis for the 1940 film directed by George Marshall and starring Randolph Scott Kay Francis and Brian Donlevy. Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc hardcover books

Interior with minor signs of wear except for volume 2 which shows tiny wear marks on a few pages.; OUT OF PRINT SCARCE REFERENCE CATALOGUE. LIMITED EDITION OF 1500 COPIES OF WHICH THIS IS NUMBER 168.; The Topkapi Saray Museum collection of Chinese Ceramics is one of the largest and most important in the whole world yet comparatively little of it has ever been published. The wares assembled here present a continuous review of porcelains made for export from the 13th century to the 19th century which in its range of styles and designs is without equal in any other surviving collection. With some 4500 pieces dating from the Yuan and Ming dynasties and a further 5500 from the Qing the present three-volume work covering the entire collection constitutes the most extensively illustrated book on Chinese ceramics yet published and provides an unrivaled source for dating and the study of design. The main part of the work consists of a complete and definitive catalogue in which every piece is itemised. Each entry is accompanied by one or more monochrome illustrations scaled in size according to importance and many are also shown in colour. The work contains 5000 illustrations in all of which 200 are large-size colour plates. The volumes divide the catalogue into three major sections "Celadon Wares" "Yuan and Ming Porcelains" and "Qing Porcelains". These sections and their sub-divisions are arranged chronologically and are prefaced by extensive introductions by Regina Krahl and John Ayers. Virtually all the celadon wares are products of the famous Longquan kilns and the majority date from the 14th and 15th centuries; numbering in all some 1350 pieces they comprise the most extensive body of such material in existence. In blue-and-white and white wares of the 14th and early 15th centuries too which are widely regarded as the finest products of the Yuan and early Ming the group of 125 pieces has no rival in size or quality while the representation of later Ming export blue-and-white is rich in the extreme; the polychrome and monochrome classes of Ming ware also including some notable rarities. As for the Qing wares of all categories these two comprise a uniquely extensive range of designs still virtually unpublished and of great value to students of Chinese porcelain. The first volume is introduced by a series of essays surveying the background to the collection and various aspects of the ceramics themselves. Dr. Unsal Yucel and Dr. Julian Raby throw new light on how porcelains both entered and left the palace in what quantities and at what dates; Dr. Raby also contributes a penetrating examination of the nature of Ottoman taste in this field showing how porcelain was regarded at the Court and for what purposes and on what occasions it was used. Further important articles examine in detail the use of Chinese and Arabic marks on the porcelains. A full working bibliography a concordance and a thorough index complete the work.
