Very good/ very good A pleasing first edition copy of the Fortune Press' Appointment with Seven, "the first collection in book form of work by: Peter Chilvers, Max Chapman, Silvia Dobson, W. E. R. Bell and Mark Holloway," and including contributions by the more seasoned Roger Burford and Oswell Blakeston. Born Henry Joseph Hasslacher (1907-1985), Blakeston was apprenticed into the British film industry, working with David Lean, before joining the experimental film group and publisher, POOL. He chose a new name for himself; 'Oswell Blakeston' apparently combined a borrowing from Osbert Sitwell and his mother's maiden name. Blakeston was prolific and varied in his output, which included poetry, crime fiction and travel books,alongside his film writings; he was also an artist and illustrator. Max Chapman was an "inventive, committed painter" and artist, who was "one of the last links with the rarefied aesthetic world of Ricketts and Shannon in the 1920s and the later Bohemianism of Soho and Fitzrovia." As here, he frequently collaborated with his partner Oswell Blakeston, who wrote and illustrated numerous books together.
