Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket, As Issued. Limited Edition #473 of 500. The true first book printed by Edward W. Titus at his legendary Rue Delambre press, establishing the aesthetic blueprint for his Paris expatriate circle. This edition perfectly merges the refined letterpress typography of Tit…us with Howard Simon's delicate modernist woodcut illustrations. It stands as the essential foundational document for one of the most significant fine press imprints of the 1920s American expatriate movement. KEY FEATURES +++ Visuals: Features three elegant, tipped-in woodcut illustrations by Howard Simon, with the first plate signed by the artist in the matrix. +++ Binding: Original quarter white parchment spine with gilt titles over blue-grey paper-covered boards, boasting a sharp blue paste-on paper label to the upper cover. +++ Content: Collects Dunning's introspective, refined modernist verse, representing his key collaboration within Ezra Pound's Paris circle. +++ Associated Names: Edward W. Titus (Publisher); Howard Simon (Illustrator); Ezra Pound (Circle Associate). +++ Imprint: Paris: Edward W. Titus, at the Sign of the Black Manikin, 1926. Limited Edition, this being copy #473 of only 500 printed. +++ Specs: 9 x 5.25 inches tall / unpaginated [22 pages]. CONDITION: Near Fine. The bindings are tight and square, holding firmly. Internally, the text block is clean and free of markings, displaying light, even age-toning, and remaining completely unopened after the preliminary leaves. The exterior shows moderate shelf handling, characterized by even toning and faint hand-soiling to the parchment spine, light rubbing to the extremities, and typical endpaper offsetting to the corners. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - Edward W. Titus was an American expatriate bookseller, critic, and publisher whose Rue Delambre shop operated as a vital node of literary modernism, neighboring Sylvia Beach's Shakespeare and Company. By founding the Black Manikin Press, Titus merged classical fine-press craftsmanship with modern aesthetic experimentation, creating a platform that championed controversial and innovative writers who were excluded from mainstream commercial streams. Rococo matters precisely because it is the opening salvo of this publishing crusade. Before Titus took on the financial and legal risks of printing Lady Chatterley's Lover or funding the early booklets of Anaïs Nin, he utilized Dunning's verse and Simon's engravings to test the limits of his handset typography and establish his reputation among international collectors. SCHOLARLY FEATURES +++ Expatriate Fine Press: Functions as the inaugural publication of Titus's Sign of the Black Manikin Press, setting the high typographic standard that would later produce early milestones for Anaïs Nin, D.H. Lawrence, and Henry Miller. +++ Modernist Illustration: Showcases early, masterful Paris-period woodcuts by Howard Simon, whose printmaking captured the intricate, delicate imagery of the lost generation poets. +++ Poetic Lineage: Documents Ralph Cheever Dunning's place as a central, tragic figure in the expatriate avant-garde, whose traditional yet deeply introspective verse was heavily championed by Ezra Pound in the transatlantic review. SUBJECTS: Black Manikin Press, Edward W. Titus, Paris Expatriate Printing, Howard Simon, Modernist Illustration, Modernist Poetry, Fine Press, Rue Delambre. GENRES: Limited Edition, Private Press, Illustrated Book. Illustrations by Howard Simon (illustrator).

[Florence: ca. 1763]. This handsome manuscript, prepared for presentation to Emperor Francis I (1708-65), Holy Roman Emperor and Grand Duke of Tuscany, is a beautifully written contemporary fair copy of the original holograph manuscript now in the Museo Galileo (formerly the Institute and Museum of the History of Science in Flor…ence), compiled by Targioni-Tozzetti (1712-83), the great natural historian, librarian, director of Florence's botanical garden, and professor of botany. He was, after Spallanzani, the most active Italian naturalist of the 18th century. Emperor Francis I, the husband of Maria Theresa, was well-known for his interests in the natural sciences and for assisting his wife in running the complicated Austrian dominions. The collections of natural history specimens in the "Specola" next to the Pitti Palace trace their origins to earlier Medicis and to Georg Eberhard Rumpf, who had sold a large collection of 360 shells to Cosimo III de' Medici in 1682. The present catalogue was compiled at the instigation of Antoniotto Botta Adorno (1688-1774), prime minister of the Duchy of Tuscany. Thanks to Cosimo III's other natural history acquisitions, by the middle of the 18th century, Florence could boast one of the greatest collections of shells, botanical, and mineralogical samples in Europe. In 1775, all the collections were gathered into the "Specola" at the instigation of Grand Duke Peter Leopold which was the only scientific museum or "Wunderkammer" of its kind specifically created for the public to view. The present catalogue, following Targioni-Tozzetti's original manuscript, describes 3449 items, of which 2340 are zoological (mostly shells), 375 botanical, and 734 mineralogical and rock specimens. The preface to the catalogue describes the collections and their histories, their provenances including the Far East, etc. The main body of the catalogue is divided into three sections: zoological, botanical, and mineralogical samples. Each description is quite elaborate with full accounts of each specimen, references to other books, references to where other examples are illustrated, etc. Provenance: This manuscript entered the Apponyi family library in Oponice, Slovakia in the latter part of the 18th century and was sold in Prague in June 1939. ?
