White wraps with bw illustration dustjacket of transparent plastic. Unnumbered pages. Features 11 bw illustrations. Presentation copy inscribed by the sculptor. "Around 1943 I met in the Drome a photo of a small Stahly wood Le Doigt and by letter I immediately bought this work without having seen it. Stahly was at that time a shepherd in the highs of Burgundy where he was hiding from the enemy of the time. Since then I have acquired other works from him including two large ones and I have lived for years with them in my room and in my office among Brancusis without getting tired on the contrary. Why speak of space and rhythm 'big words' whose deep meaning escapes man - I will simply say that Stahly contains a finesse an attention a natural lyrical transposition a humor a patience and a continuity that bind me to his work and make me curious about the rest" - introduction by Henri Pierre Roche.

1958ref. List3404New York City 1958. Folded flyer measuring 7 ¾ x 5 â… inches bifolium. Fine condition. A membership flyer printed in April of 1958 published as part of a fundraising drive around the Little Rock Nine. The NAACP was actively fundraising in 1958 to raise money for legal costs in the face of state-led actions in the south attempting to ban the organization. The risk of membership lists from the south being published made the growth of membership in the northern and western US of paramount importance for the organization. The final leaf offers the reader to “stand with the Little Rock Nine and enclose $. for membership.” We find no examples of this flyer in auction records or on the market at the time of writing January 2026. unknown books
