The National Gallery of Art notes that, for Rockwell Kent, "exploration and artistic production were twinned endeavors, and his travels to these rugged, rural locales provided inspiration for both his visual art and his writings"; the results of this inspiration are on full display in N BY E. Kent's illustrations, which often depict the feeling of his adventures in Greenland rather than their reality, evoke the dreamy figures of William Blake passed through an Art Deco lens. This copy once belonged to noted DC poet and State Department employee Ernest Kroll.

Scarce inscribed first edition of this hardboiled midcentury novel by the screenwriter and author of JOHNNY GUITAR and THE BALLAD OF CAT BALLOU.

New York: Hyperion Books for Children, 2009. Fine in near fine dust jacket.. Signed first printing of this story about the importance of dressing however you want, and why wearing (or not wearing) clothes shouldn't stop you from having fun.

Chicago: George M. Hill Company, 1900. Very good plus.. First and only edition of this rare alphabet book, published the same year as Baum's breakout WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ. Early in 1900, Baum and Denslow's illustrated book of rhymes, FATHER GOOSE, became a surprise breakout hit as the best-selling picture book of the year. Its success paved the way for four more books by Baum the same year, including the NAVY ALPHABET and THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ. The luscious color plates of the NAVY ALPHABET, and indeed, the entire conceit of the work, was meant to piggyback on the success of Baum's book before Baum's meteoric rise as the creator of Oz. Very scarce in this condition. 12.25'' x 10''. Original quarter red cloth, paper pictorial boards. Leaves printed on rectos only, each with a large color-printed illustration by Harry Kennedy below alphabetical text in verse lettered by Charles Costello. Slight cover soil, edges rubbed a bit as usual, front hinge and corner of front blank endpaper repaired; a…
