The title page and several adjacent leaves as well as a few at the rear of the text are heavily stained.

1656réf. 151129Paris: Chez Augustin Courbe 1656. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. 45 522 12 p. 39 cm folio. Engraved frontispiece title page vignette decorations on dedication page and preface. Each chapter has full-page engraving and page top decoration making 12 of each as well as decorated first letters. Illustrations are by painter Claude Vignon engraved by Abraham Bosse. Two called-for portraits by Robert de Nanteuil are not present. Rebound in burgundy leather with 6 raised bands gilt impressing on spine. New endpapers. Title has chipped top corner. Faint dampstain on text block edge. Some small stains and darkened pages. French text. Note the dedication to the Duke of Longueville. Chapelain received a pension from this nobleman allowing him to write this heroic epic about Joan of Arc. The poem's subject also allowed him to celebrate Jean de Dunois a medieval ancestor of the house of Longueville who was one of the great military leaders of the Hundred Years War. Apparently Chapelain let thirty years go by before he published the first half of this masterpiece leading some to argue that Chapelain wished to spin out his pension as long as he could. This is one of the first French books engraved by a painter. Claude Vignon 1593 1670 was a French painter printmaker and illustrator who worked in a wide range of genres. Abraham Bosse ca. 1604 1676 was another French artist mainly as a printmaker and etcher. Most of his output was illustrations for books but many were also sold separately.

1860réf. 41018np 1860. 8pp caption title as issued. Untrimmed and uncut. A single folio leaf folded. Very Good plus. Lincoln's great Cooper Union Address argues that the Framers and early Congresses contemplated a narrow and ever-diminishing role for slavery. Examining Constitutional and early Congressional debates he demonstrates that contemporary statesmen viewed slavery "as an evil not to be extended but to be tolerated and protected only because of and so far as its actual presence among us makes that toleration and protection a necessity." Lincoln's argument fusing the interests of all anti-slavery men whether abolitionists or not ranks among his greatest contributions to American political thought. It received wide press coverage catapulting him into presidential contention for it transported the new Republican Party into the center of American constitutional and legal thinking. He thus made it easy for moderate Northern Democrats Whigs and Know-Nothings to vote Republican in 1860. Monaghan 55. LCP 5944. unknown

1946réf. A51026New York NY: New Collectors Group. Very Good. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. SIGNED EDITION. This copy includes a letter from Hannes Box to SF author P. Schuyler Miller on company letterhead and signed by him with his whimsical mouse at the bottom of the page. The book is one of 1000 numbered copies completed by and illustrated by Hannes Bok - this is book number 454. First Edition with the book is in Very Good condition and has the First State binding of black fine mesh cloth and the illustration of a nude woman on page 19. The book is lacking the plain paper dust jacket. The book is in mostly clean bright condition though there is some light bumping to the spine ends and corners. The text pages are clean and bright. The letter to P. Schulyer Miller is similar to one that Bok sent to Miller at another point in time unfortunately neither letter is dated though I have a hunch that this letter came first in time. The letter starts with thanking him for his order and then proceeds to discuss some of the difficulties Bok was having with getting this book and The Black Wheel due to shortages paper I assume. He then goes on excitedly to talk about future books and the market. Also included is a bookplate of P. Schulyer Miller. I've only found one comparable to this at Heritage Auctions. auction lot number 82143.; B&W Illustrations; 109p. pages; Pictured 6/30/25; Signed by Illustrator . 1946. New Collectors Group hardcover
