Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition. 242 pages. Hardcover. First edition. Text in English. [SIGNED] Initialed in black marker "AW" with an inscription (To Mary Jane with much love aw), followed by a full signature (Andy Warhol), and drawn soup can all packed on to the same half title page. The artist would vary what flavor of soup he drew to suit the reader/recipient. In this case, he doodled "Oil Soup," presumably referring to the source of the recipient's employer's wealth and location then in Houston, Texas. A stated first edition, followed by the letters "B C D E" indicating that it is a first impression of the first edition. A near fine copy with some mild soiling and a light stain to the top edge of the page block and minimal shelfwear to the edges of the boards and jacket. Else, the jacket is bright and unblemished with an unclipped price. The binding is tight, the interior (aside from the aforementioned inscription, signature, and drawing) is clean and unmarked. The previous owner was employed by the Houston art collectors and philanthropists John and Dominique de Menil. She recounts an event at Houston's University of St. Thomas where Warhol was signing books accompanied by Factory cohort and celebrity Viva. According to the previous owner, he insisted that Viva entertain the crowd in attendance by telling them a story. "Tell them the story of the birth of baby Jesus," she remembers him saying. Viva proceeded to do just that. An almost perfect condition copy of a seminal landmark book in the history of 20th century art, inscribed by arguably one of its most provocative and influential artists, and personalized and linked to the oil town that was possibly more supportive and receptive to his radical ideas than most. Inscribed by the Artist. Book.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition [stated]. [14], 241, [1] pages. DJ has some wear, soiling, and edge tear. Signed on half-title page with some bleed through to the title page. Signature has been authenticated and comes with a Letter of Authenticity from JSA [James Spence Authentication] Certification Number XX34894. A loosely formed autobiography by Andy Warhol, told with his trademark blend of irony and detachment. In The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, which, with the subtitle "(From A to B and Back Again)," is less a memoir than a collection of riffs and reflections. He talks about love, sex, food, beauty, fame, work, money, and success; about New York, America, and his childhood in McKeesport, Pennsylvania; about his good times and bad in New York, the explosion of his career in the sixties, and his life among celebrities. Andy Warhol (born Andrew Warhola; August 6, 1928 - February 22, 1987) was an American artist, film director, and producer who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, advertising, and celebrity culture that flourished by the 1960s, and span a variety of media, including painting, silkscreening, photography, film, and sculpture. Some of his best known works include the silkscreen paintings Campbell's Soup Cans (1962) and Marilyn Diptych (1962), the experimental films Empire (1964) and Chelsea Girls (1966), and the multimedia events known as the Exploding Plastic Inevitable (1966-67). He authored numerous books, including The Philosophy of Andy Warhol and Popism: The Warhol Sixties. The book is an assemblage of self-consciously ironic "quotable quotes" about love, beauty, fame, work, sex, time, death, economics, success, and art, among other topics, by the "Prince of Pop". Warhol signed two book contracts in 1974 with Harcourt, one for The Philosophy and the second for a biography of Paulette Goddard, which was never completed. The Philosophy was ghostwritten by Warhol's frequent collaborator, Pat Hackett, and Interview magazine editor Bob Colacello. Much of the material is drawn from taped interviews Hackett did with Warhol specifically for the book, and also from conversations Warhol had taped between himself and Colacello and Brigid Berlin. Warhol promoted the book in September 1975 on a nine-city U.S. book tour, followed by stops in Italy, France, and England. Derived from a Kirkus review: Warhol's immense immersion into the trivia of his life (by way of a tape-recorder he calls his "wife") is undeniably, hypnotically enjoyable. It makes no difference that Warhol seems, or really is, emotionally frozen at fourteen years old. His mind-book is a repository of ideas that may well survive the century -- an indispensable bag of what it's like to spend a crammed Saturday afternoon in Macy's, Woolworth's and Gimbel's shopping for fifteen pairs of jockey shorts and eight pairs of Supphose (all navy). Warhol is his own greatest straight man, with a Buster Keaton deadpan in his far-outness and no sense of put-on. He really believes in himself, his "nothingness," his insecurity, his shopping bags full of candy. He deliberately surrounds himself with love's cast-offs so that he won't be exposed to any real feelings that might make him nervous; he has incredibly long phone talks full of insane minutiae; he plays four TVs at once in his bedroom. This book is the real Warhol -- it wasn't ghosted, but it has benefited from a "redactor's" editing, thank heaven. And it's quotable: "I have a Fantasy about Money: I'm walking down the street and I hear somebody say -- in a whisper -- 'There goes the richest person in the world' . . . Money is my MOOD . . . I don't feel like I get germs when I hold money. . . When I pass my hand over money, it becomes perfectly clean to me." Or, "sex is nostalgia for sex," and "being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery." Bravura passages of Campbell's soup cans. Philippe Halsman (Jacket photograph) (illustrator).…
