Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition. Limited Edition. 'The first edition of this book consists of 490 numbered copies. This is copy 446.' A very large number of interesting photographs, along with some illustrations. This is one of a number of books that were owned by and inscribed to George Plimpton that I'm listing. If you're not familiar with him, take a look at his Wikipedia profile, or better yet google 'In His League: Being George Plimpton' a really interesting article published in The Nation. Suffice it to say he lived a fascinating life. The authors, J. Michael Lennon and Donna Pedro Lennon, inscribed the book to him on the half-title page. The inscription reads '14 June 2000, To George, Editor of editors, with thanks for showing us the way, Warmly, Mike & Donna.' Note that Plimpton was the First editor-in-chief of the Paris Review. Plimpton and Mailer knew each other pretty well. Plimpton interviewed him for the Paris Review in 1998. They were also together in Zaire for the Ali-Foreman fight ( I have a book listed for sale about that fight titled Muhammad Ali: In Fighter's Heaven which is signed by its author Victor Bockris. That book was also owned by Plimpton). 'J. Michael Lennon is an American academic and writer who is the Emeritus Professor of English at Wilkes University and the late Norman Mailer's archivist and authorized biographer. He published Mailer's official biography Norman Mailer: A Double Life in 2013. He edited Mailer's selected letters in 2014 and the Library of America's two-volume set Norman Mailer: The Sixties in 2018. 'At Lennon's suggestion, in 1994 the Mailer papers, previously housed in Manhattan, were moved to a large professional storage facility in Pennsylvania. This arrangement made it more convenient for Lennon to have access. Lennon and his wife began to re-organize the papers, sifting and sorting through 500 cubic feet of paper. This led to work on a comprehensive annotated listing of Mailer's writings, and those about him. Norman Mailer: Works and Days, compiled by the Lennons, was published in 2000, with a preface from Mailer, and is the standard Mailer bibliography.' In this case, I can leave the Condition description for last because there really aren't any issues that need to be called out. You can see the covers in the photos. They are quite clean. There is little to no wear, a little crinkling at the spine ends. The edges and corners are all in excellent condition. The gilt lettering on the front and spine is very bright. The page edges are also quite clean. And the book is square, not slanted, and very solidly bound from cover to cover, with nicely tight pages. These pages are also exceptionally clean. I didn't see any soiling on any of the pages. Nor are there creases or dogeared corners. There are no markings. No attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. Note that this book was definitely issued without a dust jacket. Note also that, despite its excellent condition, I am offering this book at a very significant discount to the few other signed copies that are for sale. Those range from $250.00 to $325.00. The ones that were also signed by Norman Mailer range from $750.00 to $900.00. Inscribed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. leRoy Neiman Ilustrador. First Edition (first printing). A Very Good copy, in a rubbed and lightly edge-worn Good dust jacket. Signed by author (and former light heavyweight champion boxer) Torres, and by Norman Mailer, Budd Schulberg, artist leRoy Nieman, and by Cus D'Amato, who trained Torres (as well as Floyd Patterson, Mike Tyson and others). Torres and Schulberg sign "To Peter", and "For Peter, Looking forward to your book". Sadly, we do not have provenance. However, the only such gathering we have found occurred when Torres was introduced as New York State Athletic Commissioner in 1984. All these gentlemen were present, as was writer Pete Hamill. We can only speculate. No matter the Peter, a remarkable copy of a boxing classic. Signed by Author(s). Book.

Henri ROUSSEAU Ilustrador. Paris, Albin Michel, 1950 - 1 ère Edition française -fort in-8 - Broché - Couverture rempliée, illustrée en couleurs - XIII + 665 pp - petite note manuscrite en breton - bon exemplaire - Réf. 49341 Présentation Albin Michel:"Provocateur, iconoclaste, talentueux, Norman Mailer a été l'un des enfants terribles de la littérature américaine tout comme l'observateur subversif d'un pays dont il n'a cessé de condamner les dérives. Lorsqu'il publie Les Nus et les Morts en 1948, il n'a que vingt-cinq ans mais a déjà vécu l'expérience de la guerre. Traduit en 25 langues, ce récit fulgurant de réalisme et de révolte, qui met en scène des hommes envoyés en mission derrière les lignes japonaises pour conquérir une petite île du Pacifique Sud, connaît un retentissement immédiat. Couronné par le prix Pulitzer, il marque l'entrée en littérature mais aussi dans la légende d'un des plus grands romanciers américains."Voici un livre dur, déplaisant, parfois irritant, mais inoubliable. Un livre imparfait, mais un grand livre" A. Maurois Livres Ebay.

Hardcover. First Edition. 280 pages. One of 490 numbered copies (80 of which were hors commerce). There were an additional 26 lettered copies bound in leather. A bibliography and more of the two time Pulitzer Prize-winning author. 'The ambition of Norman Mailer: Works and Days is to chronicle Mailer's professional career, to nominate, delineate, annotate and cross-reference every significant Mailer utterance in print in English (an impossible task worth attempting), as well as the chief events of his life. Also included are a select secondary bibliography, and several appendices. The photographs and illustrations, one for most years from 1941 through 2014, are intended to add evocative interrelations to the record' -- from the introduction by J. Michael Lennon. First edition (first printing). A fine copy; no dust jacket as issued. This is copy number 1. Inscribed by the author J. Michael Lennon: 'To Don Kaufmann, pioneer and formidable Mailerian, with gratitude and respect / Mike & Donna Lennon.' Kaufmann published one of the first critical studies of Mailer, Norman Mailer: The Countdown (The First Twenty Years).
