"This catalog was published in conjunction with MASTERS OF AMERICAN COMICS, an exhibition jointly organized by the Hammer Museum and The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, [&] is made possible, in part, by the National Endowment for the Arts. [] Essay by John Carlin. With contributions by Stanley Crouch, Tom De Haven, Dave Eggers, Jules Feiffer, Jonathan Safran Foer, Glen David Gould, Matt Groening, Pete Hamill, J. Hoberman, Karal Ann Marling, Patrick McDonnell, Francoise Mouly, Raymond Pettibone, Robert Storr, and Brian Walker." [] "Comic strips and comic books were among the most popular and influential forms of mass media in 20th-century America. This fascinating book focuses on fifteen pioneering cartoonists--ranging from Winsor McCay to Chris Ware--who brought this genre to the highest level of artistic expression and who had the greatest impact on the development of the form. Organized chronologically, MASTERS OF AMERICAN COMICS explores the rise of newspaper comic strips and comic books and considers their artistic development throughout the century. Presenting a wide selection of original drawings as well as progressive proofs, vintage printed Sunday pages, and comic books themselves, the authors also look at how the art of comics was transformed by artistic innovation as well as by changes in popular taste, economics, and printing conventions. First appearing in newspaper Sunday supplements, the comic strip became immediately successful and created the largest audience of any medium of its time. The comic book first began as a way to print existing newspaper comics, then subsequently established the mass popularity of superheroes in the 1940s and 1950s before it matured as a vehicle for independent personal expression in the underground comic books and graphic novels of the 1960s. Included in the book are insightful and entertaining essays on individual artists written by major figures in the fields of comics, narrative illustration, literature, popular culture, and art history. MASTERS OF AMERICAN COMICS convincingly positions the genre of comics into the history of art and is destined to become a classic text for years to come."

Navy Cloth Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. 1901. First edition. xiii, 198pp., a frontispiece portrait and 6 pages of advertisements for other publications at the end of the book. John Stuart Blackie (1809-1895) was a Scottish scholar and man of letters. After attending classes at Edinburgh University (1825-1826). He spent three years at Aberdeen as a student of theology, and in 1829 he went to Germany. After studying at Göttingen and Berlin he accompanied Bunsen to Italy and Rome. The years spent abroad extinguished his former wish to enter the Church, and at his father's desire he gave himself up to the study of law. Blackie was a Radical and Scottish nationalist in politics; and possessed of great conversational powers and general versatility, his picturesque eccentricity made him one of the characters of the Edinburgh of the day. He had a habit of preserving in manuscript his random thoughts on life, character, literature, and general economics, and this volume contains a collection of entries from his 'Day-book', selected and transcribed from the manuscript by his nephew. The book is bound in the original black buckram cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with fairly noticeable shelf wear and some light soiling on both boards. There is also some patchy damp fading on the boards. The corners and spine ends are bumped with some damage to the cloth at the top of the spine and wear on the bottom spine corners. The contents are tight and clean with offsetting to the free endpapers. There is no inscription.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1952 First Edition, First Impression. Huge Folio Size 15 x 11.5 hardbound book. Edited by Huntington Cairns and John Walker. Published by The Macmillan Company for the National Glalery of Art, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. Bound in denim cloth with some minor shelfwear around the extremities. Interior is immaculate. Many people harvest these full page photos. They take them and put them on a canvas and then brush modge podge on them and they end up looking like real paintings that you can decorate with. I have done this with a huge Monet poster with a gorgeous ornate frame that throws people off when they see it. Would make a great gift to someone who is planning a trip to this beautiful museum (before Trump gets rid of it), to plan out their visit. Embossed emblem on front cover in gilt. Gilt titling on the spine is somewhat faded and there is a 5 cm what looks to be paint splash at the bottom of the spine. Overall, great find! (PM) "C"airns.

"Ernest Walker Marwick was born in 1915 in Evie, Orkney. He left school aged ten, and thereafter was almost entirely self-educated. Working on the farm where he was brought up and then in a Kirkwall bookshop, he began writing in his teens and published articles and verse in newspapers and magazines. In 1955 he joined the staff of the Orkney Herald, where his contributions included a weekly column on Orkney folklore and history. In the early 1960s he became a freelance writer and broadcaster, publishing numerous articles in Britain and abroad, and making over 800 broadcasts for the BBC. He lectured widely and was founder member, and subsequently chairman of the Orkney Heritage Society. In 1975 he received the freedom of the City and Royal Burgh of Kirkwall, and the following year the University of Edinburgh made him an Honorary Master of Arts. He died in 1977. Ernest Marwick was compiler and editor of An Anthology of Orkney Verse (1949), editor of Walter Traill Dennison's Orkney Folklore and Traditions (1961), and author of The Folklore of Orkney and Shetland (1975).".
