Beschreibung

Broadside. Measuring approximately 14" x 19¾". Backed onto acid-free Japanese tissue. A bit of light creasing, a couple of short tears and tiny chips, very good. A scarce broadside printing president Charles Dudley Warner's address before the first public meeting of the National Institute of Arts and Letters; he speaks at some length about copyright law, as well as the relationship between publishers and authors ("and I mean the the author, and not the mere craftsman who manufactures books for a recognized market"). The National Institute of Arts and Letters was formed by members of the American Social Science Association in 1898 and merged with the American Academy of Arts in 1976 to form what is now known as the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Warner was an essayist, novelist, and friend of Mark Twain, with whom he co-authored the *The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today*. Not in *OCLC* or *BAL*. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 510626
