"Published in conjunction with an exhibition of American folk art canes from the collection of George H. Meyer, held at the Museum of American Folk Art, New York, June 4-September 14, 1992"--Title page verso. Summary:"Hand-carved canes are a part of America's culture and art, speaking to our rich national heritage and capacity for self-expression. As vehicles of personal communication and group identity, American folk art canes display images ranging from King Kong to depression-era bathing beauties, from boxer "Gentleman Jim" Corbett to an anonymous shoemaker, and from Civil War soldiers to Dolly Parton. Symbols of fraternal and military organizations also occupy the miniature world on the cane, as do representations of nature, from snakes swallowing frogs to bee-filled gardens." "American Folk Art Canes: Personal Sculpture is the first comprehensive, scholarly book focusing on American folk canes and will be a foundation for future research in the field. Reproduced in full color, more than three hundred canes dating from the early nineteenth century to today disclose the complex cultural meanings, obscure individual histories, and light-hearted social commentaries of folk art walking sticks. Detailed, comparative, and historical photographs show the diverse styles, techniques, and themes used by the generations of American carvers who have mastered this expressive and utilitarian art form. Each illustration eloquently demonstrates the carvers' artistry in transforming a simple functional object into a work of art." "The introduction and eight original essays by noted scholars examine the methods of dating canes, their sculptural and symbolic qualities, and the aesthetic character and history of Native American, African-American, Civil War, fraternal, and contemporary canes. Details of the canes' imagery, origins, and composition are given in an extensive documentation section. Color plates of related folk art carvings, a selected bibliography, and a thorough index supplement the book."--Jacket.

In den Warenkorb1p, 12mo. Bifolium, addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'J. M. Muller Esq'. In fair condition, lightly aged, with closed tear along one of the two folds and slight creasing at foot, with a panel lacking from the second leaf. The recipient Johann Martin Muller published a few piece of music in Edinburgh in the 1840s. Thomson begins in the hope that if Muller is 'disengaged next Saturday evening' he will join Thomson 'at Seven o' clock sending Beethoven's Sonatas, & Trios; in which case I would beg of you to take the trouble to send the accompanying Note to our friend M Boisragon, as I do not know where his lodgings are.' He asks to be informed on the matter, and in a postscript writes: 'Please to put into my Note to Mr B the hour at which you can come 7 I hope.' Laid down on the second leaf is a newspaper cutting regarding the 'Death of George Thomson, the Correspondent of Burns'. The 'M Boisragon' of the letter is the singer Conrad Boisragon of Cheltenham, who according to one source 'became known as Conrado Borrani on the London opera scene of the 1840s'.
