1926réf. 9071Prague: Prokop Laichter 1926. First edition. 4to 81 1pp. Illustrated initials and full page illustrations by Laichter Prokop. Publisher's cloth backed purple paper boards with large paste on illustration on front cover. Boards somewhat toned and faded around edges internally clean and bright. A near fine copy. A stunning production from the Czech painter illustrator set designer and actor Laichter Prokop 1898-1975 who was also son of the influential publisher Jan Laichter. In 1924 Prokop's first wife the author of this book Annuše died prematurely of tuberculosis and Laichter printed this book as a remembrance two years later. The introduction translates as "A few words spoken over the grave of a prematurely deceased fairy-teller." Likely printed in a very small number for friends and family we find 3 copies only in OCLC: Princeton and 2 in the Czech Republic. Prokop Laichter unknown
1885réf. 8996N.p.: Privately Printed 1885. First edition. 7x5" 19pp. Vignette on title page. String bound in beige printed card wrappers. Light chipping to edges of wraps clean internally and very good. Rare booklet from one of the early pioneers of the Puget Sound Edward Jay Allen 1830-1915. Unusual for immigrants heading west Allen was college-educated and single. He settled near Olympia in 1852 after his overland journey from Pennsylvania. Interestingly Allen negotiated with the local Native Americans to pay for the land before he took up residence. He played an important role in early surveys and road building in the area before returning east in 1855. This story likely written for his children is told by a fater to his 7-year-old and begins "Once upon a time there was a Prince." An epic battle ensues between the Fairy Godmother and the Great White King to preserve the wildflowers the Prince loved so well. "If you build these Walls of Sand around the Prince's flowers the power of the Great White King shall be naught and the flowers may bloom on forever." OCLC cites a single holding at the University of Pittsburgh and we find no mention of this booklet elsewhere. . Privately Printed unknown
