		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **Two of the postcards from 2001 show works of Baldessari's, and the third is from the wonderful Musso & Frank Grill in Hollywood. All three of these bear personal messages and have one or more pinholes near the top margin. The fourth was sent from Florence in 1972. The front is plain white, except for a hole slightly less than 1/2-inch in the center and the legend in pale gray, "A hole to see the sky through. Yoko Ono '71." On the address side the message to Matheny consists solely of a dotted circle echoing the die-cut hole. Price is for all four.

	<![CDATA[ 
		The nine pieces are primarily personal correspondence in the artist's inimitable syle sent in the early 1970s to James Butler, husband of Eugenia Butler, Los Angeles gallery owner in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Byars seemed to turn everything he touched into a work of art. The first seven of these pieces are museum quality. **Nine handmade pieces, mostly correspondence: **1) Scroll letter on matte orange paper 1 foot by about 18 feet long, plus gold triangular tail, 1 foot. Written in blue (?) pencil. **2) Heart-shaped letter. Five leaves of tissue with vivid red matte surface. Written with gold pencil (?). Approximately 12 x 11 inches. Folded in half vertically. **3a & b) Gold egg with gold writing, 13-1/2 x 11 inches, folded crosswise in half; in gold envelope written in blue (?) pencil (?). "I just bought the whole _____(?) world (?)." **4) Letter addressed from DAAD, Berlin, 25 May 1974, in ordinary business envelope. Bone shape; single-sided gold paper written in pen. 8-7/8 inches by about 36 inches; ends about 12-1/2 inches wide. Folded. "The germs love my bone _____? music (?)." **5a & b) Chinese envelope for money gifts on New Year's, birthdays, etc., mailed from Switzerland. Contents: 6 sheets 6-1/2 x 5-1/4 inches with silver-leaf (?) applique on each, 2-3/4 x 2-7/8 inches; folded lengthwise. Writing in ____ (?).  **6a, b, c & d) A "sculpture." Gold envelope containing two black paper bags marked "Rat" and Balls," with an instruction card written in silver on black-coated, cover-weight paper 11-5/8 x 8-3/4 inches. The bags are just under 22 x 17 inches and folded in half; titles written boldly in white chalk or pastel on each bag.. Each folded bag has folded within it a red tissue about 20 x 15 inches folded in eight. The bags are to be blown up and then connected at their tops. String not present. Envelope postmarked 30 December 1971. **7) "Spider" letter, though it does not have eight legs. Black tissue, crumpled, with gold writing. Four legs: two about 4 feet 2 inches from center; one L-shaped, 2 feet 7 inches + 2 feet; one L-shaped, 3 feet 3 inches + 2 feet; center about 11 inches each way, so total size about 5 feet or more across. Other similar pieces in galleries and museums are housed under clear plastic boxes. **8a & b) Scroll paper, pink tissue with tails. Black ink. Approximately 5-3/4 inches x approximately 9 feet 6 inches. Loosely folded in manila envelope postmarked "Nov. ____). **9) Letter on 7 sheets of very pale pink tissue 14-3/16 inches square, folded in four. Written in pink crayon (?). **Five printed pieces: **10a & b) "The golden tower 1." Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD zur Ausstellung in der Galerie Springer, Berlin, 1974. 2 sheets black paper printed in gold, 177 x 50 cm (together, the size of the artist's body). 180 lines of type in English and German on each sheet. Weserberg 20. **11) "A white paper will blow through the streets." Kyoto Museum of Art, 1967. Round  broadside 68 cm in diameter. Framed. Printed in black offset on white Japanese tissue paper. Weserberg 44b. Reportedly, only 60 copies of this flat, unfolded version exist. Another edition, from New York (Weserberg 43), is on paper 63 cm in diameter and was published in larger quantities for use as an announcement or invitation. Most of these were crumpled or folded. **12, 13, 14) Three items  printed in 1-point or smaller type, gold ink on black paper, perhaps for an exhibition at the Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven. These may have been tickets to the opening of "Perfect Is My Death Word," 1995 (?). Byars also appeared at the Van Abbemuseum in 1983 with Piet de Jonge in the exhibition "Gold dust is my ex libris." Perhaps these little pieces of ephemera come from then. **12) A circle 15 mm in diameter bearing the words, "The chair of the artist at Harvard" in tiny capitals. Weserberg 135 (though not dated). Several examples in collection. **13) The same, but the circular piece of paper is 25 mm. Not in Weserberg. **14) A 25-mm square bearing a small, open circle 1 mm in diameter. Not in Weserberg. The collection also includes the following reference work: James Lee Byars: Bücher, Editionen, Ephemera. Neues Museum Weserburg Bremen, &#91;Part of the publication "Perfect Is My Death Word" (1995).

		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **BOLDLY SIGNED BY CHRISTO in black on title page. 2 volumes in 1. Printed orange paper covers.. 27 x 20.5 cm (11 x 8.5 inches).  265 + 99 pp., with several fold-out maps and other illusrations and graphs. A plastic pocket attached to the blank verso of the last page contains a sample of the fabric. Contents include: Project description (6 parts); Environmental setting, impact, mitigation (15 parts); Impact overview (4 parts); Alternatives to the proposed project (1 part). Appendix (pp. 151-265) contains supplementary exhibits, from lists of native plants to letters of recommendation and support. Volume 2, Addendum to the Draft Environmental Impact Report, dated December 12, 1975, reproduces comments and responses, both written (before November 26, 1975,) and oral (at a hearing, December 3, 1975). A copy of the Draft Environmental Impact Report that we sold in 2001 consisted of the first 265 pages in a plastic spiral binding. Most of this volume is reproduced at about 50% in David Bourdon's Christo: Running Fence; Sonoma and Marin Counties, California (New York: Abrams, 1978). The incredibly complex political, bureaucratic, financial, and commercial requirements needed to complete Christo's extraordinary projects are as much a part of his art as the aesthetic works he makes to visualize them and, through sales, to underwrite them. There are only twelve copies of this extremely rare document in OCLC (the World Catalogue), and seven of those are in Australian libraries. Backstrip very slightly faded; light cover wear. For an extra $200 ($950) total, we can also supply an as-new copy in slipcase and original mailing carton of the David Bourdon book described above, signed by Christo (limited to 2159 copies, with a page-sized piece of the original fabric bound).

		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **New York: Knopf, 1931. First edition with splendid inscription and drawing on the half-title: "To Jake Zeitlin with my. very best wishes, thanks and. – everything s. –" &#91;sic]. The drawing shows a snow-covered volcano wreathed in clouds in the background; in the foreground a man leans forward over cacti holding a hat in his hand, and another man lounges on the ground strumming a guitar. The drawing finishes with a spectacular signature filling most of the bottom of the page. 48 plates of Indian life with facing texts. About 104 pp. Brightly decorated boards with white spine and rear cover. Except for very slight creasing at the head of the spine and a little discoloration at the tail, the book is in excellent condition. The dustjacket bears the cover design on both the front and back panels, and it, unfortunately, is in deplorable condition. The front panel is missing a riangular chunk about 4 x 2-1/4 inches at the top edge, and the rear panel has an equally large piece torn on one edge and creased on the other.

		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **Six items as follows: 1) A student notebook or workbook, 21.8 x 17.5 cm. The cover is mottled black outside and purple inside. It has 30 pages now but probably had 40 or more originally. The first three leaves and one in the center are loose, and there are a few stubs where paper was torn out. Of the 30 pages, 20 have a dramatic script written very rapidly in soft pencil. The title or chief characters appear to be "Colmet" or "Calmet" and "Marianne." One of the unused sheets in the back has some longhand multiplication in ink and in different handwriting. 2) A 16-page booklet with no covers, 22.4 x 17.4 cm, contains more of the same dramatic script. It may be an earlier version because some pages are boldly crossed out. 3) A single sheet of stationery from E. Grindel in Paris (Paul Eluard) measures 27.4 x 21.7 cm and is folded in half. It bears on one side several notes, including one about Don Juan and another about a manuscript of la "Ballade de Pierrot blanc et laid"; a list of titles (?), e.g., "l'Essor," "Cauchemar," "Paysage alpin," "Ballade russe (ballade en triolets)," etc. On the other is another list headed "Table des matieres" and a drawing of a bearded man in  long robe with a ruff and a musical instrument (probably a mandolin). 4-6) Three love letters dated 1912 and 1913 to Valentine Gross from Maurice Mathey, Swiss painter (1878-1975). They are in ink in a very small, delicate hand. Each one is a sheet 22.2 x 17.2 cm folded in half to make 4 pages. One is a page and a quarter; one is two full pages; and the third is two-and-a-half pages, plus a few notes at the bottom of page 2. Three envelopes also are present.

		FREE domestic shipping with direct order. **London: Heinemann/San Diego: Aeolian, 1972. A large folding drawing printed in red and black and pasted inside the rear cover shows "The Hogarth Press &#91;about 1928]," a cutaway sketch of a row house showing activities at the different levels. It starts at the back of the basement with a "large windowless room in which large bales of books were kept and in which Mrs. W wrote her books" and concludes out on the street with "Mr. Bumpus (Bagman)" walking by on the sidewalk. 40 drawings in the text (7 double spread). 24.5 x 18.5 cm. Linen with price-clipped dustjacket. **SIGNED on the title page, which also bears an oval, metallic gold sticker for Aeolian Press, the US distributor. "This book can be thought of, in no way unkindly, as a sort of literary 'Diary of a Nobody'. Richard Kennedy went to work for Leonard and Virginia Woolf at the Hogarth Press in 1928 when he was sixteen. His status was practically that of a fly on the wall; Francis Birrell (who had also worked at the Hogarth Press) asked him at a Bloomsbury party whether he was a factotum, adding 'More totem than fact, I should imagine'. He was of no consequence to the paladins of Bloomsbury. There was no reason to exercise their wit and charm on him. He saw them at their most unguarded and least artificial. That is what makes his account so fascinating" (from the Introduction, by Bevis Hillier). The following year brought catastrophe, when Kennedy "unwittingly instructed Spalding & Hodge to cut the paper &#91;for the whole Uniform Edition of Virginia Woolf's works] to the wrong size…. LW says… I am the most frightful idiot he has ever had the privilege of meeting in a long career of suffering fools. (pp.84-5)." An utterly charming book. We have several signed copies. ISBN 0-435-18510-1.

The works in ink seem far superior to those in color, at least in these small reproductions. The original drawing on stiff, smooth paper appears to be an excellent example. Besides the ink signature, it bears the artist's blind stamp. Text by Franco Russoli in parallel Italian, German, and English.

		. In 1955 Kenneth Patchen produced two exceptional works: Glory Never Guesses and A Surprise for the Bagpipe Player. Each was a folder containing 18 serigraph broadsides and published in an edition of 200 copies. The present bound volume includes those 36 images plus two additional serigraphs on the title page and verso consisting of a poem to his wife Miriam. **38 serigraphed pages in various colors on 19 leaves of rice paper printed on one side, then folded with the printed sides out and bound at the open edges Japanese style. White leather and brown textured paper, with a silk-screened title label in white, purple, and brown on black. 38.5 x 32.2 cm (covers). **Colophon, in dark blue-green ink on light green paper, mounted inside the rear cover: "'The Moment' Silkscreened by Frank Bacher on special paper for this edition. Hanbound &#91;sic] at the printshop of Henry Geiger in Alhambra, Calif. Edition Limited to 42 copies. Signed on December 5, 1960. Kenneth Patchen". **A fine copy in a ragged paper wrapper. A few tiny flecks on the first printed page (following the front free endpaper and a blank leaf) probably are just natural irregularities of the paper. A CD of all the images was prepared by the owner and accompanies this copy.

The inscription quoted above is on the first of the blue leaves. The first and second signatures of each proof bear printer's tickets. Since these are proofs, the frontispieces and title pages are not included. The second, presumably earlier version has many corrections, At the end of the text on the second page 78, the author has SIGNED: "Emile Bergerat / 1e Journal de Paris / 2e Petit Moniteur."
