ref. 75-0918NY NY: E. P. Dutton 1979. First Edition. 4to. Soft Covers. Front and back covers show minor signs of wear. Very Good. 89 pp.Both color and black and white plates.Publisher's note: "'The poster is only a means to an end a means of communication between the dealer and the public something like telegraphy. The poster plays the part of a telegraph official: he does not initiate news he merely dispenses it. No one asks him for his opinion. He is only required to bring about a clear good and exact connection.' This statement defining the art of the poster was made in 1933 by A. M. Cassandre a French artist generally considered to be the greatest in his field during the 1920s and 1930s. This handsome book for the first time publishes 60 of his posters in color together with an essay on Cassandre's life career and style and a virtually definitive listing of 117 posters."Provenance: From the library of Pasquale Iannetti. NY, NY: E. P. Dutton, 1979 paperback

2008Exhibition catalog is in excellent condition with one small mar at upper spine. Binding is solid and square, covers have sharp corners, exterior shows no blemishes, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Organized by the Museum of Modern Art in Paris with the cooperation of the foundation of Georges Rouault, the Archives of Henri Matisse with the coordination of the Brain trust, Inc. of Tokyo. Text is in French and Japanese. 198 pages with a great many full size prints from both artists. In the spring of 2006, the Rouault Foundation's rediscovery of Henri Matisse's letters to Georges Rouault, coming to respond to Rouault's letters that have remained classified in the Henri Matisse Archives, shed light on the "lively sympathy of art" which linked the two artists throughout their lives, from their beginnings in the studio of Gustave Moreau at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, at the end of the XIXth century, until their last meeting, in Cimiez, in February 1953. The correspondence found to date opened in the summer of 1906, when Matisse resided in Collioure, to resume in the 1930s; while Rouault enters into professional contact with Matisse's son, Pierre, who devotes three special exhibitions to Rouault in his New York gallery between 1933 and 1947; it intensified during the Second World War. Theatrical projects, personal health concerns, artistic considerations, exhibition projects, resurgence of memories of their youth intermingle in the letters of the 40s and 50s. Carried out in close collaboration with the Georges Rouault Foundation and the Henri Matisse Archives, the presentation of the correspondence between Rouault and Matisse testifies to this friendly and artistic network. While the exchange of letters was lacking, especially between 1907 and the 1930s, chronological research and archives made it possible to reconstruct the seemingly relaxed framework of their friendship, bringing to light many events which on the contrary attest to its constancy: numerous exhibitions, participation in the first "Jury of the Painters' Prize" in June 1923, at the Ballets russes, collaboration with T?riade for the review Verve. This edition, an original contribution to the history of art, highlights the highlights of their correspondence by articulating multiple meeting points, and sheds light on the parallel journey of two artists who have asserted their own personalities from a point of common departure: the "erotic symbolism" (Philippe Dagen) of Gustave Moreau, figure of their youth which holds a central place until the evening of their life.
1910ref. BK0073New York and N.p. 1910. Two cabinet cards. One measuring 4 ¼ x 6 ½ inches with photograph measuring 3 â… x 5 ½ inches; heavily overpainted with manuscript caption and other manuscript recto and manuscript verso; worn with pinholes to mount and photograph with some staining very good minus. Other measuring 5 x 7 inches with photograph measuring 4 x 5 ½ inches; heavily overpainted mount with photographer's imprint "Rowley" and "Genesee" visible manuscript verso; worn with pinholes to mount very good. Overall very good minus. Two cabinet card portraits of Rev. James Edward Quigley 1854-1915. Quigley born in Canada West to Irish immigrants came to the US as a young child. He was ordained in 1879 and served the Diocese of Buffalo becoming its bishop in 1896. While in Buffalo he advocated for unions-particularly helping the Longshoremen-but against socialism and some union regulations that he saw as anti-Catholic. He was appointed archbishop of Chicago in 1903 where he organized a minor seminary and several parishes for immigrants from various countries and co-founded the missionary Catholic Extension Society. He also advocated for women's admission to DePaul University. These photographs of Quigley are heavily though not unartistically overpainted. He appears younger in the Rowley photograph; though the manuscript caption titles him "Archbishop" the photograph is likely from his time in Buffalo. unknown

1820ref. WB16351New York 1820. 8vo. Disbound wrappers. pp. 82 of Title leaf lacking portion of blank area at the bottom 15% or so of total leaf. The concept of medical police is quite interesting in the context of urban social history. The "police" focused on everything for occupational hazards to prostitution abandoned children and public safety such public alcoholism and toxins and poisons that could be an immediate hazard to public heath. David Hosack was noted American physician but remains "widely known as the doctor who tended to the fatal injuries of Alexander Hamilton after his duel with Aaron Burr in July 1804" His second wife was the wealthy widow of the merchant and shipowner Henry A. Coster and brought $300000 and seven children from her earlier marriage into the Hosack household. The newfound wealth enabled enabled Hosack to live and entertain lavishly- the splendor of his parties was the talk of the town and he built an opulent baronial estate on the Hudson. His fortune was lost in 1835 as a result of a sweeping fire that bankrupted insurance companies he was invested in and he died that year with the financial stress contributing to his rapid decline.
