Salvador Dali (illustrator). Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) Poèmes de Mao-Tse-Toung Paris, Éditions Argillet, 1967 A complete and particularly refined example of this important portfolio illustrated by Salvador Dalí and published by Éditions Argillet in Paris in 1967, during one of the most accomplished phases of the artist's graphic production. Conceived as a cohesive dialogue between image and text, the work brings together Dalí's mature graphic language with the French translation of Mao Tse-Toung's poems, resulting in a portfolio of strong conceptual and visual unity. The suite comprises eight original engravings with drypoint, printed hors-texte on fine Arches wove paper, each sheet bearing the artist's embossed signature. The plates are executed with remarkable precision and clarity, combining controlled line with a distinctive expressive quality characteristic of Dalí's late 1960s work. This example is fully signed and numbered by hand, the justification page bearing the inscription "Exemplaire No. 214" together with Salvador Dalí's autograph signature in pencil. It belongs to the Arches blanc edition, numbered from 79 to 229, forming part of the principal signed issue of the publication, as detailed in the justification. Each individual engraving is further authenticated by Dalí's blindstamp, confirming the originality of the suite. The portfolio is complete in all its elements as issued, including the title page, full French text, signed and numbered justification, the complete set of eight engravings, the original printed wrapper with embossed Chinese calligraphy, and the original cloth-covered portfolio box with Dalí's embossed signature. The work is referenced in Michler & Löpsinger 209-216 and Field 67-1. Presented in a format of 403 × 302 mm, this example stands out for its exceptional state of preservation. The sheets remain notably fresh, clean and well-preserved, with strong impressions and full margins throughout. The justification page is clear, with the handwritten numbering and signature well retained. The overall condition can be described as mint for the contents, with only minor signs of wear to the outer portfolio box, entirely consistent with careful handling and storage. Poèmes de Mao-Tse-Toung occupies a distinctive position within Dalí's graphic ?uvre, reflecting a period of technical refinement and close collaboration with Éditions Argillet. Complete examples, fully signed and preserved in such condition, remain increasingly desirable, particularly when retaining their original presentation and all constituent elements intact.

8vo (ca. 147 x 208 mm, untrimmed, gatherings unopened). (4), 98, (2) pp. With 5 folding charts and tables. Staple-bound original white wrappers, spine and front cover lettered in black with facsimile of Mao's calligraphy, additional autograph signature of Mao. - (With): Typed letter signed ("Jack Woddis") to Gordon Beeson of New Malden, Surrey, 14. March 1950, 1 p. (125 x 203 mm). The first appearance in book form of this fundamental text on the use of unconventional warfare in modern conflict, with a rare early signature of Mao and compelling provenance. - One of the most consequential modern books, the ideas in Mao's 1937 pamphlet On Guerrilla Warfare have been a constant influence in a post-colonial world. Tactics that included the use of small forces for intelligence gathering, surprise attacks and then retreat, and most crucially the recruitment of peasant populations to the cause, provided a framework for strategy within many of the "small wars" of the late 20th and early 21st century. Mao firmly believed that the addition of guerrilla action to an overall strategy could break the stalemates that occur when major powers are at war. The work's influence was broad in the decades after World War II, influencing in particular Che Guevara to produce his own work on the subject - disseminating Mao's ideas on warfare when agrarian and urban powers collide to the then emerging revolutionaries in South and Central America. - Mao's "Problems of Strategy in the Anti-Japanese Guerilla War" was first published in book form in "Common Problems in the Anti-Japanese Guerrilla War," an anthology of essays by communist writers published in 1938. It was issued as part of a three-volume series, together with "Lun chi jiu zhan" ("On Protracted Warfare") and "Kangri zhanzheng congshu" ("A Collection of Books for the Anti-Japanese War"), all edited by the Kangri zhanzheng yanjiuhui (Anti-Japanese War Research Committee) and sold by the Xinhua Bookstore in Mao's wartime base, Yan'an. - The accompanying letter from Jack Woddis, the International Secretary of the Communist Party of Great Britain, is addressed to Gordon Beeson, a Socialist from Surrey, acknowledging a substantial donation he had made: "[.] many thanks for the seven guineas. I enclose a copy of Mao Tse-Tung's 'Protracted War' [sic] with his signature written on the side of the cover. I am sure that this signed book will be a rare acquisition on your part, and I can assure you that the seven guineas will be put to good use in promoting Anglo-Chinese friendship [.]". Also present is a stamped tan envelope, presumably the one in which the book was sent, with typed label and ink inscription, probably by Beeson, indicating: "This is a first edition of 'Protracted War' by Mao Ts Sung [sic] and autographed by Mao himself on the back page. Should be very valuable someday". Beeson, a respected dealer in woodwind instruments and a skilled saxophone technician, was not himself a Communist, but a member of the Socialist Party of Great Britain since 1931. - Gatherings entirely unopened. Some toning to leaves, small chips to untrimmed edges, some loss to spine. Letter folded several times with apparent wear and some chips to edges, but without loss of text. An extraordinary rarity in excellent condition. OCLC records only three copies: at the Hoover Institution, Harvard University (lacking cover page), and the National Library of China. - 1. Jack Woddis (1914-80), International Secretary of the Communist Party of Great Britain. - 2. Gordon Beeson (1899-1985), British socialist and music dealer based in New Malden near Wimbledon, received in exchange for a donation to the CPGB. - OCLC 78310424.

70 x 110 mm. 1 page of a day planner, with notes on the reverse. Signed in blue ballpoint ink. [With:] 1 black and white albumen photograph (58 x 70) and and a Chinese visa, printed with handwritten entry of name and date (150 x 206). The autograph of Chairman Mao Zedong, given to a visiting Colombian communist, Jaime Velásquez Toro (d. ca. 2000), who worked as a leftist member of the Colombian Liberal Party and as a representative of the labour union of the Frontino Gold Mines. Velásquez visited China in 1959 as part of a presidential visit by Alberto Lleras Camargo (1906-90), which allowed him to encounter Mao in person. Included along with the autograph is Velásquez's Chinese entry visa, and a snapshot of Velásquez (to the far right in a white shirt and tie, jacket slung over one arm) and his party in front of the Great Wall with a mix of Chinese and Colombian dignitaries, including Alfonso López Michelsen (second from left), later president of Columbia. The photograph is dated to 1 October 1959, shortly after the entry date of the Chinese visa, and the signature is dated in the same ink "Oct. 7/59". - Signatures by the Great Chairman Mao are extremely rare. - Paper a touch toned, with very slight remnants of glue-stains to reverse due to previous framing. Signature bright and clean. - By descent to the Velásquez heirs.
