Añadir al carritoSoft cover. Condición: Very Good. Terry Lee (Cover) Ilustrador. Very Good - a strong Very Good. See scans and description. Analog Science Fiction and Fact - April, 1986. New York: Davis Publications, 1986. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 192 pp. Cover by Terry Lee. Very Good; short, light cover crease, touch wear points around binding, and of course the inevitable age-toning of the paper used in all pulp fiction productions, but here it is modest and inoffensive. Pages are supple. Not far from Near Fine - or would be, if not for that age-toning, unique to the inexpensive types of paper used for the classic American form known as pulp fiction. Herein: the conclusion of Frederik Pohl's serial tale, 'The Coming of the Quatum Cats; Charles Sheffield;s Novella, 'Trader's Blood'; Somtow Sucharitkul's Novelette, 'Fiddling for Water Buffaloes'; George Guthridge's science-fact 'Eskimos Solve the Future'; as well as contributions by Robert F. Young; David Brin; Jay Kay Klein; Dana Lombardy; G. Harry Stine; and Tom Easton. See scan of contents page.A collectible example of this issue of the the 1986 format of a very long-lived series of American science fiction publications - but you know about that. Condition is probably as solid as any you'll be likely to find. Ships in stout protection, of course. L103.

Añadir al carritoCondición: Good. Folio. 16 x 11.75 inches. Sheets loose as issued. Cover with closed tear. .26 of 29 plates, lacking 12, 22 and 24. Works by Kay Boyle, Charles Bukoswki, Stephen Spender, Tal-Coat, Dorothea Tanning, Hans Richter. Poet and publisher. She was born Mary Phelps Jacob, later became Polly Peabody, and finally Caresse Crosby. She received a patent for a design for the first modern brassiere which gained wide acceptance. Along with her second husband, Harry Crosby, and after his suicide, on her own, she published and promoted many of the early modernist writers. Their Black Sun Press produced works by D.H. Lawrence, Kay Boyle, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, Hart Crane, among others. She was born in New Rochelle, New York into a prominent New England family. She was the first to design and patent an undergarment named 'Brassiere,' derived from the old French word for 'upper arm'. On November 3, 1914, the U.S. Patent Office issued a patent for the 'Backless Brassiere'. In 1915, at age 24, she married Richard Rogers Peabody. They had two children and divorced. On September 9, 1922, at age 28, she married Harry Grew Crosby.In 1937, at age 47, she married Selbert Young, a football player nearly twenty years her junior. She opened an art gallery in Washington D.C. and started Portfolio, a magazine about art and literature. She also was politically active and founded the organization Women Against War. In 1950, Caresse divorced Selbert Young and moved to Rocca Sinibalda, Italy, where she planned to create an artist's colony. She published an autobiography in 1953 called The Passionate Years. In the last years of her life, she tried to build a world citizen center that would bring together political leaders and the artistic community in Greece and then in Cyprus. Frustrated by political obstacles, she died in Rome of heart failure in 1970 at age 79, before its completion.
