Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Blind Date is known as a spectacular and erotically-charged psychological novel. As he moves among heads of state, renowned scientists, national heroes, sex scavengers and jet-setters, George Levanter, involved with enterprises as businessman, gamesman and lover, is faced with complex moral choices and emotional shocks. This copy does not appear to have been read. It is pristine creamy beige boards, with no design save black type on the spine. The dust jacket has a darkened spine, a couple of bumps and small tears at the bottom; nothing major. The inside is perfect; the original owner put a bookplate in it, which can be removed.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This is a stated First Edition (1987, not 1988 as the ISBN info notes) of The Hermit of 69th Street, the last novel by the Polish-American writer Jerzy Kosinski (1933-1991). Its full title is The Hermit of 69th Street: The Working Papers of Norbert Kosky, and it is a semi-autobiographical novel about the creative process and the life of a writer. This copy has not been opened, until now. But the spine of the dust jacket is white and has become discolored, just from sitting on a shelf for 34 years. The book itself is pristine. No shelfwear. There's not a mark on it or in it.

Condition: Sehr gut. Nr. 20. 206 Seiten Abb. Illustrationenen, Text in polnischer Sprache Seltenes Exemplar nur in der Bib ausleihbar ! "Dieses Werk von Jerzy Kozi?ski (nicht zu verwechseln mit Jerzy Kosi?ski, dem Romanautor) bietet eine umfassende, historisch fundierte Darstellung der Entwicklung der Fotografie in Krakau von ihren Anfängen bis zum Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs. Der Zeitraum 18401914 umfasst die Pionierzeit der Daguerreotypie, die Etablierung professioneller Fotostudios, sowie die zunehmende gesellschaftliche, künstlerische und dokumentarische Bedeutung der Fotografie in Galizien, insbesondere im kulturellen Zentrum Krakau. Kozi?ski stützt sich auf eine Vielzahl von Quellen darunter Stadtarchive, Atelierregister, Zeitungsanzeigen, fotografische Sammlungen und persönliche Nachlässe. Das Buch dokumentiert nicht nur die technischen Entwicklungen, sondern auch die sozialen und kulturellen Kontexte, in denen sich die Fotografie in Krakau entfaltete. Zahlreiche Fotografen werden biografisch vorgestellt, darunter bekannte Namen wie Ignacy Krieger, Awit Szubert oder Walery Rzewuski. Zudem enthält das Buch Abbildungen historischer Fotografien, die als visuelle Quellen dienen." 11201 polnische Lit. pl Gewicht in Gramm: 900 Kl.-8°, 15 cm x 11 cm, Softcover, kartoniert, sehr gut erhalten, keine Gebrauchsspuren.
