"NOTE: Previously published as "Eastern Shame Girl," this book was attacked - and acquitted - in the courts, with judicial recognition of its exceptional literary merit. The original source of the stories appearing in this collection of Chinese love tales is the classic literature of China in the seventeenth century." And, from the More-You-Need-To-Know Department: "The Illustrated Editions series consisted of illustrated classics, some a bit on the torrid side, published in New York by the slightly dubious duo of Joseph Meyers and his sister Edna Williams, initially joined by actor, writer and theatrical producer David Belasco . At least three closely related publishing houses all specializing in illustrated classics were established around 1930 at 100 Fifth Avenue: Williams, Belasco, and Meyers (1930-1932), which published the New Classics Library (1930); The Illustrated Editions Company (1929-1942), publishing the Illustrated Editions series. These books were also sold between 1930 and 1942 at Macy's for .65 cents under the Macy Classics name (Publishers Weekly, Vol. 122, 1933), as the Arden Library by Concord Books (The Concord Bookstore) from 1933-1937), and as the Cameo Classics (distributed by Grosset and Dunlap) from 1935-1948; and, Three Sirens Press (1930-1946), which published the Three Sirens Classics between 1930-1940. Three Sirens Press also appears as the imprint for Macy Classics titles in some cases. "Joseph Meyers was described by Bennet Cerf (Modern Library, Random House) as a "notorious pirate" in Gertzman's book Bootleggers and Smuthounds, and the trio of presses allegedly indulged in reprinting numerous books without holding the copyright to those titles. By not paying copyright fees, Meyers and Williams were able to print and sell good quality illustrated books at prices that were below typical smaller, unillustrated reprint series of the 1930s. "This edition of Chinese Love Tales is illustrated by Valenti Angelo and has a copyright of 1935 and was published sometime in the 1935-1942 date range. This particular title was translated by George de Morant. An earlier version, illustrated by Marcel Avond, was published as Confessions of an Eastern Shame Girl (1920, Valhalla Press, Paris) and "privately printed" in the US as Eastern Shame Girl (1929). The latter ran into some trouble with censors. "Meyers and Willams seem to have had the book re-illustrated by Valenti Angelo (no other Angelo-illustrated version shows up earlier) with a copyright date of 1935 published under both the Personal Books Inc. and Illustrated Editions Inc. names. A copy was also published under Meyers and Williams Three Sirens Press imprint (in a slipcase). The Personal Books version maintains the Eastern Shame Girl name, while the Illustrated Editions and Three Sirens version is titled Chinese Love Tales" (see: seriesofseries/illustratedededitions[.]com).

Zustand: Very Good. The perfect marriage of Victorian scholarship and modern book design. A crisp, complete survival of a 20th-century masterpiece. This fine press edition of the Richard Burton's translation, reimagined with the exquisite graphic precision of Valenti Angelo. This monumental six-volume set provides a plain and literal translation of the Arabian Nights entertainments, supplemented by Burton's extensive and famously uninhibited scholarly annotations. Angelo, one of the most celebrated book designers of the 20th century, provided over 1,000 individual illustrations for this project. The design is a triumph of the all-over style, where the intricate borders and delicate line drawings create a visual texture that mirrors the complex, interlocking "frame stories of the text itself. KEY FEATURES +++ Illustrations: Decorated with over 1,000 original line drawings and intricate marginalia by Valenti Angelo. +++ Translation: The unabridged Richard F. Burton translation, including all original notes and terminal essays. +++ Binding: Tooled leather spines over pictorial paper-covered boards. +++ The Set: Complete in six volumes as issued by the Limited Editions Club in 1934. +++ Imprint: Printed in the U.S.A. for the members of the Limited Editions Club. CONDITION: Very Good. +++ The Books: The bindings are structurally sound with the tooled leather spines showing typical light age-toning and minor rubbing at the extremities. The internal text blocks are exceptionally clean, crisp, and bright. +++ The Boards: The decorated paper sides remain vibrant with minimal shelf wear. No major scuffing or loss to the delicate printed patterns. Spine tip corners with light shelf wear. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Sir Richard Burton's translation remains a cornerstone of 19th-century orientalism, prized for its raw energy and linguistic depth. Describing the Decoration: The boards are decorated in a Persian-miniature style, featuring an intricate, repeating "all-over" pattern of stylized flora, fauna, and human figures in a pastoral landscape. The design utilizes fine-line lithography to create a tapestry-like effect, characteristic of Valenti Angelo's ability to blend Western book design with Eastern motif. SCHOLARLY FEATURES +++ Bibliographical Note: This 1934 LEC edition was the first to successfully marry Burton's dense, Victorian prose with a modern, cohesive aesthetic. +++ Artistic Detail: Angelo's work here is considered a masterclass in line-and-letter harmony, where the illustrations never overpower the typography. +++ Completeness: Verify set includes volumes 1 through 6, concluding with the index and terminal essays.
