Gilt morocco bookplates of Walter Chrysler and Paul E. Bechet. First edition. Inscribed by Riley on the preliminary blank: "For -- / Sir Henry Irving, / With greetings and esteem / -- James Whitcomb Riley. / Indianapolis, USA -- / Dec. 2 1897 / ...... / He loves his work -- he loves his friends -- / June, Winter, Fall, and Spring -- / His lovin' -- fact is -- never ends; / He loves jes ever'thing. / [Rubáiyat of Doc Sifers]." Actor/Manager Irving (a.k.a. John Henry Brodribb), and his personal assistant Bram Stoker, became good friends with Riley, and they were in frequent contact when Riley visited London and when one of Irving's tours found them in Indianapolis. Stoker records their friendship in PERSONAL REMINISCENCES OF HENRY IRVING, p.112. Stoker's own presentation copies from Riley were sold at the posthumous sale of his library and manuscripts at Sotheby's (London) on 8 July 1913, and realized more than 10% of the gross proceeds. BAL 16625. RUSSO, pp.69-70.

(The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation." Edgewear, creases to bottom and bottom and top corners of front cover, soil on bottom and light soil to outside pages. We note pencilled underlining on at least 29 pages and pencilled marginalia on at least three pages and four creased page corners. Quotes…
