Add to basketSingle Issue Magazine. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. New York: The Butterick Publishing Company, 1925. September, 1925. Cover from a painting by F.Z. Hueston. Folio, wrappers, 84 pp. Light soiling, previous owner's signature at top edge. Very good for this, otherwise really quite better. See scans. Large, "bedsheet" size…periodical, at a turning point in its history as a fashion bellwether here in this issue. Fashion sketches are flappery and elongated, as they would indeed also be with the full advent of its art deco period in ensuing years, but this cover is prior to the unique Helen Dryden covers period, and the art and editing is not yet fully awash in deco mindset. In addition to the fashion, coooking and homemaking pages, though, there is serious fiction and full vintage illustration of it here, including Zona Gale's "A Thief in the Night", Irving Bacheller's "The Secret of Being Happily Married", Margaret Culkin Banning's "The Fortune Hunter", "The Weakest Link", by University of Michigan sports legend Fielding H. Yost, and Dixie Willson's "Little Texas". Some of the celebrated artists for these works include Clara Elsene Peck, Joseph Simont, Gerald Leake and Paul Meylan. A tour de force in the fiction & illustration department - and that isn't even the strong point for this Butterick publication, which is a living timeline in the history of American fashion. Nice. Please see scans. lg6. Various (illustrator).

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Very Good dj. First Edition. [tight clean book with just the teensiest trace of shelfwear, remnants of old price sticker on rear pastedown; jacket lightly soiled, with a handful of tiny edge-tears, no paper loss]. (B&W frontispiece, 3 B&W plates) Monsieur Guelpa, in solving "the most baffling mur…der mystery Paris had ever known . goes deeply into the lives of the great French family involved, lays bare their romances, their relations with one another and with the public, the sources of their wealth, the reasons for financial embarrassment, the count's rich marriage in America, his wife's early love affair, the intrigues of domestics." (Wow, who does this Guelpa guy think he is, Lew Archer?) Thompson, primarily a literary critic and poet, turned his attention to mystery fiction for the first time with this late-career novel introducing Mr. Guelpa, "the famous French detective" (with no first name, it would appear). Thompson did a couple of other books in the genre, but the only other "Mr. Guelpa" novel (and that was its title) was published in late 1925, a few months after the author's death in June of that year -- hence the "series," if you can call it that, consists of just two books. (We also have a copy of that second and final installment for sale as of this writing, making ReadInk perhaps the only bookseller in the world to be offering the entire "Mr. Guelpa" series!) NOISBN. Illustrated by Gerald Leake (illustrator).
