The Magic Story
by Dey, Frederic van Rensselaer
- Used
- first
1915. First published in New York in a magazine called "Success" in 1900-1901, 'The Magic Story' caused something of a sensation, purportedly giving readers the key to good fortune and prosperity. The story was subsequently published in book form in dozens of editions. Irrespective of whether 'The Magic Story' made its readers wealthy, sales would have almost certainly boosted Frederic van Renasselaer Dey's own financial fortunes. | A man named Sturtevant, a poor artist, discovers 'The Magic Story' after buying who an old scrapbook for three cents and finding the manuscript pasted inside. Everyone to whom he reads the story seems to experience immediate good fortune. | In many ways, 'The Magic Story' anticipated the self-help book phenomenon and is a direct precursor to works such as Dr Norman Vincent Peale's 'The Power of Positive Thinking' (1952). Duodecimo, plain paper wrappers (front clipped at lower right hand corner, rear lightly marked), typescript, 63 pp. with the title, nine full-page ink drawings and decorations in manuscript. This appears to be a unique handmade copy of a best-selling book, 'The Magic Story'.

Description:
Probaly Venice, 1825. An exquisite suite of watercolours, including a beautiful series of scenes documenting a Venetian commedia dell'arte troupe, by the Italian artist Francesco Novelli. Francesco Novelli (1767-1836), one of the preeminent artists of his generation, lived in Venice where he was best known for his outstanding book illustration. He enjoyed a long and successful career that culminated in the landmark editions of Don Quixote (1819) and Gil Blas (1820). Novelli is also known for illustrating works such as the Fasti Veneziani (1794), hinting at his abiding interest in the theatre and the performing arts. In this unmatched collection of Novelli's watercolours, the greatest number are piquant images of a troupe of the commedia dell'arte, with especially fine depictions of Pierrot himself, as well as other key figures such as Columbine and Harlequin. There is a remarkable series of scenes from a play, as well as studies of individual performers, many so precisely rendered that it is almost…

Paris: Fabrique Générale d'Articles de Voyages, 1840. First Edition. Alexis Godillot (1816-1893) was a contemporary of Louis Vuitton (1821-1892) and first achieved renown in Paris for his beautiful hand-made luggage. With a workshop situated just a few blocks away from Vuitton's, this catalogue comes from this very early period of Godillot's life before he had revolutionised footwear by differentiating the moulding of the left shoe from the right and become the famous shoemaker who would go on to equip over one hundred thousand French soldiers for The Crimean War. 'Godillot' remains a slang French term for 'boot' to this day. The album features superb hand-coloured lithographs with an original sketch showcasing nearly one hundred accessories including bags, picnic baskets, apparel, wonderful old trunks, tents, and hammocks- true 'objets nomades' - many of which are in surprisingly bold and modern designs. A beautiful, rare, and precious catalogue of the articles a traveller might require for…
