Hardcover. Condición: Very Good-. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good-. First Edition. Merce Cunningham (1920-2009) an American dancer and choreographer who was a highly influential voice in modern American dance for over fifty years. This book provides reproductions from his working notebooks showing the development of his ideas and the creative process used in translating his thoughts into individual dances. There is no indication of the edition; it is presumed to be a first edtion. Original white cloth publisher's covers with blue spine lettering. The covers have some faint dampstaining and there are a few age spots (foxing) at the lower portion of the front and rear covers. There is a small previous owner sticker on the front free end paper, else this is a tight, clean and unmarked book. The dust jacket is in similarly nice condition with no chips, tears, or markings. ; B&W Illustrations, Facsimiles; 8vo, 8"- 9" tall; Unpaginated pages.

Hard cover. Condición: Very good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very good. First edition in original dust jacket. Some minor edge wear on jacket, including one 1/4 inch tear near spine on back; mild discoloration from age on back. Crisp and bright throughout, unmarked other than previous owner's name on inside front cover.

Estado de la sobrecubierta: dj. First Edition. Octavo. 24cm. Publisher's original white cloth boards titled in deep blue to spine. Dustjacket. 176pp. Clean and very bright with some minor soiling to board edges, in a sharp photographic dustjacket with some minor marginal wear and chipping to the laminate. A very good copy indeed. Internally clean, with a rather cryptically indecipherable signed note from Cunningham laid in, also present is the ink ownership signature of Bessie Schonberg, the immensely talented and renowned choreographer and dancer whose early work as a dancer came to a sudden end due to injury, but who then continued behind the scenes in a long and distinguished career. A very handsome copy of a densely produced, if occasionally incomprehensible, work, and an impressive double association. Signed.
