Baker's Bob Dexter Series. The Bomba series originated under Edward Stratemeyer's Stratemeyer Syndicate using the publisher's house pseudonym Roy Rockwood with primary text ghostwritten by Howard R. Garis and John W. Duffield.

Early Stratemeyer Syndicate juvenile w/ Edward Stratemeyer writing as Arthur M. Winfield in the original 40-cent Enterprise Books series. Ships in box from the USA quickly & w/care. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SYNOPSIS & HISTORY: Preserved with its original pre-WWI red-stamped paper dust jacket this rare vintage 12mo hardcover edition of Bob the Photographer; or A Hero in Spite of Himself captures the turn-of-the-century transition from 19th-century dime novel paperbacks to publisher-bound juvenile series fiction. Authored by Edward Stratemeyer under his Arthur M. Winfield pseudonym the storyline follows orphaned youth Bob Hazelton navigating studio photography railroad intrigue and wilderness perils while thwarting a train conspiracy. The narrative blends Horatio Alger pluck-and-luck themes with period industrial fascinations specifically view-camera photography and steam railroading. The physical volume features blue cloth boards stamped in orange and black with a detailed view-camera illustration a glossy monochrome frontispiece and plain endpapers. Enclosing the binding is an authentic circa-1910 paper dust wrapper displaying red artwork the 40-cent Enterprise Books price mark and publisher series advertisements along the flaps and rear panel. The front flap advertises The Enterprise Books listing down to Lost in the Land of Ice while the rear flap advertises The Bobbsey Twins listing down to The Bobbsey Twins at the Seashore. Bibliographically carrying a 1902 copyright date by A. Wessels Company and a Grosset & Dunlap title page this printing state dates to circa 1910 based on back cover advertisements listing The Tom Swift Series down to Tom Swift and His Electric Runabout published in 1910. Edward Stratemeyer's work during this era connects to the brief Stitt Publishing Company window 1905 to 1906 a pivotal phase in the development of the Stratemeyer Syndicate. Stratemeyer's factory assembly model pioneered the production framework that later spawned The Rover Boys The Bobbsey Twins The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. Paper dust wrappers from popular libraries and early juvenile series suffered an estimated 99.5% attrition rate as early readers routinely discarded fragile wrappers. Surviving pre-WWI paper wrappers represent major antiquarian rarities in juvenile series collecting. As an intact dime-novel-era artifact preserving its original publisher wrapper the book provides an important physical record of early 20th-century popular print culture. Grosset & Dunlap hardcover

réf. 51-7299Paris: Jean-Jacques Pauvert 1955. 4to. 19 x 26.8cm. 69.pp Original wraps. Founded by Eric Losfeld–who went on to publish Jean-Claude’s notorious Barbarella comics in the early 1960s–Bizarre lasted for just two issues before falling off the map in 1953. The magazine was soon revived however by Jean-Jacques Pauvert and Michel Laclos who kept its torrent of iconoclastic wit cultural criticism and artistic daredevilry running uproariously from 1955 right up to the eve of the Paris uprisings in the spring of 1968. No stranger to controversy Pauvert made a name for himself in the immediate postwar years publishing at times clandestine editions of Sade. His new bookshop on the Rue Bonaparte was quickly put under police surveillance when it opened in 1956 just a year after he restarted Bizarre and the besieged bookseller/ publisher found himself at the center of the “Affaire Sade” as the French government stepped in to ban the publication and sale of such works. Clashes with authority and public controversy also hounded other contributors to the journal including its ‘s star illustrator Siné. An anarchist with sharply anti-capitalist anti-colonialist and as many would later find anti-semitic views Siné felt pressured to quit his position as political cartoonist for L’Express due to his virulent opposition to the Algerian War which provoked public outcry from many readers and for a time in the early sixties he worked on Révolution africaine a journal financed by the Algerian resistance organization FLN. When the uprisings came in 1968 Siné again joined with Pauvert to found the magazine L’Enragé an important document of the rebellious spirit of the late sixties and early seventies recently acquired by Beinecke as part of the Philippe Zoummeroff Collection of May 1968 Paris / BIZARRE.

The plates depict the home rural and urban the city the farm a vineyard tools a church interior a city market a winter skating scene a mountain landscape a railroad station a forest etc. The point was to educate children about the features of all these places and spaces and incidentally impart the vocabulary -- the many nouns -- associated with them. Nowadays the plates are simply wonderfully decorative with their bright chromolithography and evocation of a lost world. And the great Meggendorfer was responsible for three of the plates! Light wear to the cover. One of the plates has a minor closed tear by its fold. But as we indicated an unusually appealing copy. Verlag von J. F. Schreiber hardcover books
