Book
Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. Lindi (illustrator). 475 Pages with Index to First Lines. Red boards with gold spine lettering. Corners are bumped and showing some wear. Top page edges have $1.50 in ink. Here are some immortal verses which, heretofore, were reserved for stag parties. These pieces span a great many years some dating back to at least the early 1800s. The limereick is now a part of our literature. A highly disciplined verse form, commpact and clever, it tells a story in only five lines. Unlike most basic forms of english verse such as the sonnet and the trilet, the limerick was not borrowed from other countries but is indigenously English, perhaps the only form in poetry that can be claimed to an original English creation. the subjects treated by lthe anonymous authors of these stanzas run the enitre gamut of sexual actdivity. Fantasy has no limits, and many of these verses rise to heights of superlative exaggeration. Contents: Riddles, Limericks, Lexicon, Folk Rhymes, Responsa, Ribald Songs, Dicta, Quatrains, Graffiti, Verse, Parodies, and Miscellany. The Limerick, peculiar to English - In A Verse form that's hard to extinguish - Once Congress in Session - Decreed its suppression - But people got around it by writing the last line without any rhyme or meter. If you agree with that immortal dictum of John Keats that a dirty mind is a joy forever, then these pieces deserve preservation.

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1954. The December, 1954 issue of Fate Magazine (issue no. 57) in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 130 pp. A Near Fine copy - and this one is as near fine as near fine gets, with just touch micro-edgewear. See scans. Highest Grade, particularly for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. This issue features articles on The Golden Inca, Aldous Huxley, Dowsing, Precognition, Ghosts, the Mollasian Dogs, the Moodus Noises, and of course much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. l49n.

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. L. S. Haywood. Grace Lodge, Mathew Mole, etc. (illustrator). 1st Edition. 5 Issues of this Children's Monthly magazine containing the FIRST 5 stories of Norman Hunter's "Professor Branestawm" not published in book form until 1933. These include; April: The Professor Invents a Machine. May: The Wild Waste-Paper. July: The Professor Borrows a Book. Sept: Burglars! Oct: The Screaming Clocks. These appear as numbers 1-5 with later issues having the odd short story by him as do the earlier issues, but no more for this character. As they were printed with gaps yet run consecutively they were published as intended as he finished them. The magazines are quarto size with printed covers by David Hutton, they have other tales and activity pages with an emphasis on traditional tales for children of a more middle-class family. A serial by Norah Francis Caulfield "The Sword of Adventure" in each issue + Agnes Hart, Agnes Frome, Hilda Finnemore, E. S. Thomas, Harold Black continues with his stories of "The Gnomes and Bloggs" in several and the editor himself Hugh Chesterman amongst others. Illustrations by Marjorie Dawes, Audrey Teago, Dorothy Furniss and others. Covers have soma age toning and or dust lines, one has a quarter page advert for the magazine annual cut out but all remain very good internally and near VG on covers. Each has about 40 pages in covers with adverts at the front and sometimes at the back also. Quarto. 1929. NOTE: This lead title of tales by Norman Hunter has no mention in ANY bibliographical information I could find of these stories appearing before 1933 and elaborate that they were taken from BBC broadcasts, or also used by the BBC at the same time the books was released with illustrations by William Heath Robinson in 1933. The magazine had a sister annual "Joy Street" issued yearly BUT with none of these tales being used in the books, they appear here only. The Annual was published by Basil Blackwell and was edited by Hugh Chesterman for over 10 years with each annual being numbered from Number 1 onwards.(Please contact us for further information).
