Description:
1st ed. Folio. 40x30cm, 64 pp. illustrated cloth, with gilt caricature and titling. Heinrich Kley (1863 – 1945) was a German painter, illustrator and editorial cartoonist.
After a variety of commercial and industrial engagements, Kley attained notoriety with darkly satirical pen and ink drawings, published in the satirical magzines Jugend and Simplicissimus.
This is his first album, with several hundred pen and ink sketches depicting the absurdity of the human condition: church, marriage, fashionable ladies and pompous gentlemen, clothes and customs and character traits. Kley repeatedly uses anthropomorphic characters: elephants, apes, horses, in human poses – illustrating the spectacle of humans caught in ridiculous situations and grotesque positions.
In 1914, at the beginning of World War I, Kley ceased working for most of his magazine clients and kept a low profile. After the war, he resumed work as an illustrator, but it wasn't the same. Kley's wife passed away in 1922, and the following… Read More

Description:
First edition. 243pp. Illus. The Honda Point disaster is the largest peacetime loss of U.S. Navy ships. On the evening of September 8, 1923, seven destroyers ran aground at Honda Point, a few miles from the northern side of the Santa Barbara Channel. Twenty-three sailors died in the disaster. This history of the incident is a relatively common and inexpensive book. But accompanying it are 13 vintage 3x5" b/w photographs, 8 original b/w negatives with different images, and 9 b/w photos from the negatives, possibly printed later. The book is good in d/w. The photos were apparently taken by an amateur photographer at the scene; none of the photos appear in the book. The photos are VG, with the vintage photos glued to album pages.
