Arp Jean Edited Marcel Introduction (1 results)

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. [Date from the copyright page.] First Printing. Detailed Contents, Introduction, Translator's Note, Bibliographical Notes, Bibliographical Survey (Bernard Karpel), Index of Authors and Titles, List of Illustrations; xxxiv, 574 pages. The original brick-colored cloth is in excellent shape with corners sharp and silver lettering bright on the barely-bumped spine. The interior is fresh, crisp, and completely clean; HOWEVER, the front free endpaper has apparently been replaced. (It looks neat and professional, with a heavy paper.) The original pictorial dust jacket shows moderate wear, mostly at the edges, with one small tear on the front panel; the price has been clipped but the date remains on the front flap: 0272. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "Because Arp was one of the leading spirits of contemporary art, this excellent new translation of his writings offers us an unusually detailed documentary not only of his own life in art but of the artistic intelligence and history of the modern movement as well." As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage.
