Great nude dancer photos by Duncan. Mime Robert Shields on Union Square. The numbering of the volumes is illogical in the beginning years up to about 1971. The numbering of the volumes is illogical in the beginning years up to about 1971. "After Dark" was originally "Ballroom Dance Magazine" which ended with its volume 9, #4. The new magazine's first issue continued the numbering of the previous magazine and so issue #1 is stated as volume 10, #1. By the third year of the magazine they changed the numbering from volume 13 to volume 3, #9. A fine magazine of arts, stage, dance and music that bridged the gap between gay and straight readers in the 1970s-80s.…

Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Like New. First Edition. Gilt lettered hardback complete with dustjacket. Showing well: firm and square, strong joints, sharp corners. Contents crisp, tight and fresh, just showing a publisher's damaged stamp to the rear of the title-page. Despite such, this book is totally undamaged. Indeed it looks and feels unread. Volume 2 of a three volume set. Engages with the centrality of the popes within the Catholic Church and the claim of papal authority as it was exercised through the institution's various governing instruments. Addressing the history of the papacy in the longue durée, it highlights developments and the differences between the first and second millennium of the papacy. The chapters bring nuance to older historiographical models of papal supremacy, focusing on how apostolic primacy was contested and re-negotiated, and how the contours of power relationships shifted between center and periphery. The volume draws attention to questions about papal supremacy across time, place, and transnational lines; the function of law in the exercise of papal authority; the governance of the church in the form of the Curia, synods, and regional and ecumenical councils; the governance of the Papal States; the management of finances and church-state relations; and the relationship between papal temporal and spiritual authority.…

hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Publication: London, Hutchinson & Co., 1892 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 714. Condition Report: Good. The original green gilt-blocked cloth boards remain well-preserved, exhibiting only mild rubbing to the extremities and slight bumping to the spine ends, which is typical for a volume of this age. The gilt lettering on the spine and front board retains a pleasing brightness, unoxidised and entirely legible. The textblock is tightly bound; however, the untrimmed edges are significantly darkened and heavily toned, bearing consistent dust-soiling. Internally, there is pronounced browning and offsetting to the front pastedown and free endpapers, likely resulting from poor-quality acidic paper or a previous dust-wrapper. Scattered foxing is evident throughout the preliminary leaves, most notably marring the half-title and title page, though the central text remains crisp, legible, and largely unmarked. Catalogue Note: This volume represents the eighth instalment in the ambitious encyclopedic anthology of nineteenth-century verse. Most critically for collectors, this specific volume features the first appearance in a book of the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. Following Hopkins's death, his friend and literary executor Robert Bridges cautiously introduced his groundbreaking work to the public, contributing a brief biographical notice and selecting his poems for inclusion here,decades before the landmark 1918 posthumous collection. The provenance includes an attractive, bespoke woodcut bookplate belonging to Walter Hirst affixed to the front pastedown. Alongside this is a contemporary ownership signature from "Stanley Weall" dated "Sept. 1893," providing a firm timeline for its early acquisition. While complete sets of the ten-volume trade edition occasionally appear on the open market, this particular volume remains individually sought-after due to the seminal Hopkins inclusions, making it distinctly more desirable than its companion volumes. An essential cornerstone for any serious collector of Victorian verse, this anthology captures the shifting poetic landscape of the late nineteenth century. Most revered as the quiet, inaugural debut of Gerard Manley Hopkinsâs radically innovative poetry, it was meticulously curated by his closest confidant, Robert Bridges. This handsome, gilt-stamped volume offers a fascinating snapshot of literary history, preserving the very moment when one of the English language's most extraordinary poetic voices was first introduced to the world.
