Brossure editoriali illustrate con sopraccoperta originale in carta pergamena. Una piccola mancanza al margine basso del dorso del secondo volume. Esemplare ancora a fogli chiusi, stampato su carta di ottima qualità e con tavole dai colori vivaci e curatissimi. Tiratura limitata di 400 esemplari, il nostro è l'esemplare numero 83 , uno degli esemplari tirati “sur velin pur fil Lafuma”. Firma autografa di Fontane sotto il numero della tiratura. La più bella e curata monografia dedicata all'opera e alla vita del grande illustratore e caricaturista francese celeberrimo per le sue illustrazioni dei periodici satirici “La Lune”, “L'Eclipse” e “Le Charivari”. Le sue caricature, sotto forma di grandi ritratti litografici colorati a mano, erano considerate molto accurate, divertenti ma mai crudeli, tanto che essere ritratti da lui era diventato, nella seconda metà dell'ottocento, un motivo d'orgoglio. Fra i personaggi ritratti, celebri furono i ritratti di Sarah Bernhardt, Otto von Bismarck, Émile Zola, Victor Hugo, Nadar, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Adelina Patti, Charles Dickens e Richard Wagner. Fra i personaggi che però non apprezzarono il proprio ritratto satirico ve ne fu uno che gli creò notevoli problemi, Napoleone III che censurò “La Lune”, anche se poi il giornale rinacque come “L'Eclipse”. Gill è ancora oggi considerato come uno dei più grandi caricaturisti della sua epoca. Importante prima edizione, in tiratura limitata, di questa monografia. Rif. Bibl: IT\ICCU\NAP\0097437.

1949ref. 188141949. Moon Bucklin. The Darker Brother 1949 brought Moon's 1943 novel of a Black Florida family's migration to Harlem into the postwar mass-market paperback trade centering the racial discrimination Ben encounters after moving North. The novel follows Ben from Florida to Harlem where expectations of greater freedom confront housing employment and interpersonal racism; his later military service returns him to the segregated South. Published originally during World War II the narrative placed these experiences within the movement of African Americans from the South to northern cities and the persistence of racial discrimination beyond the Jim Crow South. Moon Bucklin. The Darker Brother. New York City: Bantam Books November 1949. Bantam edition. First paperback printing. 246 pp. Original pictorial wrappers. 8vo. No dust jacket as issued. The front wrapper depicts Ben and his fiancée Birdie on a Harlem street confronted by a white man clutching papers with buildings and street activity visible behind them. Red blue and gold dominate the illustration. Across the upper margin appears the publisher's line "He came up North for freedom and got---Harlem!" The rear wrapper announces "Born the Wrong Color" in red lettering and summarizes Ben's experiences of racial prejudice. The cover's language and confrontation scene recast Moon's novel for the postwar paperback market by emphasizing racial conflict as its principal selling point. First published by Doubleday Doran in 1943 The Darker Brother follows Ben his mother and sister from Florida to Harlem and traces the consequences of racial violence and discrimination as Ben searches for work plans a future with Birdie and enters military service. Contemporary reviews recognized race relations as the novel's central subject while Moon continued addressing racial discrimination in A Primer for White Folks 1945 and The High Cost of Prejudice 1947. The 1949 Bantam edition is particularly revealing for the history of African American representation in popular publishing: its wrapper converts a novel about Black migration and racism into the visual and promotional vocabulary of the mid-century paperback juxtaposing the promise of northern freedom with the publisher's stark Harlem street scene. Minor creasing to the lower right corner of the front wrapper and minor chipping to the spine neither affecting text or illustration; internally clean and overall very good condition. unknown
