1971Best.-Nr. 134701Adelaide: The Author 1971. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/Dust Jacket Included. Adelaide The Author 1971. Octavo xxiv 309 pages with 13 maps plus 30 pages of plates. Black-decorated green cloth lightly bumped at the head of the spine; a near-fine copy with the two-colour pictorial dustwrapper lightly bumped and very lightly sunned on the spine. The author was chaplain to a succession of eight commando squadrons during the Second World War. There is a lengthy gift inscription on the front free endpaper from 'Des C. Smith Chaplain 43 Batt. RSAR 1967 - 10/9/72'. Text on both flaps of the dustwrapper includes the following: 'Funds accrued from the sales of this book will be donated to Legacy. Here again we gratefully acknowledge the splendid contribution that has been made by Mr Bert Bache 2/2nd in designing and giving this impressive Dust Jacket'. The text on the rear flap ends with an errata sic: 'Refer page 211 para 2: "Loves" should read "Lives'''. Loosely inserted is an order form and a contemporary photocopy of the amended original prospectus: 'Only 10 copies left of first edition. For the further financial sake of Legacy 100 new orders required for a reprint of the book. Be both a buyer and a salesman'. The original prospectus notes that the book is 'a hard cover with an Arresting Dust Jacket'. We have not identified a reprint but we have handled identical copies of the book with a variant dustwrapper: it is printed in green on white paper unillustrated with minimal lettering on the spine and front panel. Perhaps this decidedly unarresting version without the printed erratum might in fact be the first-issue dustwrapper. [The Author] hardcover

Alongside their written taxonomical descriptions each species is depicted by its own black-and-white photogravure plate. Thomas Richards Govt. Printer, hardcover
1942Best.-Nr. 10392Bergamo: Istituto Italiano d’Arti Grafiche 1942. Esemplare con mancanze sulla tela del dorso cifra sul frontespizio internamente ben conservato. Legatura editoriale con dorso in tela cm 20x24 pp 125 1 fotografico in nero. Bianca pagina 75 che secondo la didascalia dovrebbe ospitare la quarta fotografia di Alex Franchini Stappo “La grande porta” - questa è presente alla pagina numerata 73 al posto di “Case” che risulta quindi omessa in questo esemplare. I testi di presentazione dei fotografi ciascuno presente con un piccolo ritratto e 4 scatti furono composti d’intesa con Giuseppe Cavalli Lucera 1904 - Senigallia 1961 da Mario Finazzi Bergamo 1905-2002 cui si deve anche la cura grafica del volume. Libro/manifesto del “Gruppo degli Otto”: Vincenzo Balocchi Giuseppe Cavalli Walter Faccini Mario Finazzi Alex Franchini Stappo Ferruccio Leiss Ermanno Marelli Federico Vender. Raccolti attorno all’avvocato Vincenzo Cavalli vicino agli ambienti di Casorati Cagli e Donghi gli Otto propongono una fotografia raffinata e antiretorica un’estetica metafisica e distante tanto dagli stilemi della propaganda di regime quanto dal realismo di indagine sociale e dal pittorialismo romantico «per esprimere piuttosto un concetto di fotografia ""pura"" semplice nella forma sempre essenziale e rigorosa e dal tono ""alto"" lattiginoso fattori questi che attribuivano all'immagine un valore estetico estraneo al soggetto ma determinato piuttosto dal ""modo"" in cui questo era stato visualizzato fotograficamente.» Italo Zannier DBI sub Voce Cavalli Giuseppe. Da questa ricerca nascerà il Manifesto della Bussola pubblicato da Cavalli con Finazzi Leiss Vender e Luigi Veronesi nel maggio 1947 sulle pagine della rivista Ferrania: «Noi crediamo alla fotografia come arte … Chi dicesse che la fotografia artistica deve soltanto documentare i nostri tempi commetterebbe lo stesso sorprendente errore d'un critico d'arte o letterario che volesse imporre a pittori o poeti l'obbligo di trarre ispirazione da cose ed avvenimenti determinati e solo da quelli dimenticando con siffatta curiosa pretesa l'assioma fondamentale che in arte il soggetto non ha nessuna importanza».
