Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 196 Pages with a Comprehensive Index. Funny stories from President Ford, Vice-President Rockefeller, and many other prominent Republicans. Cover has two photos: Ford piggy-backing a young lady, and Ford in monkey-like pose while playing golf. This book of Republican Humor is…intended to introduce a bit of levity in the political arena. Here's the book that Time magazine hailed as chock-full of the favorite thigh-thumpers of the G.O.P. politicians. And chock-full it is, with over 100 governors, senators, congressmen and cabinet members providing the best of humorous stories, anecdotes and cartoons. The subjects covered run the gamut from Adam and Eve, golf, sex, prohibition and surfing to unemployment, fund raising and even memory tax. President Gerald R. Ford expressed his appreciation of humor when in the Foreword of the book, he wrote: In politics, a sense of proportion and a sense of humor should be written into the job description of every legislator and administrator. Officials who can laugh together can work together. The aisle separating Republicans and Democrats need never be so wide that it can't be bridged by good humor. I believe in laughter. I look on it as one of the precious gifts that God has given to mankind. I admire, as Walter Scott did, the wit that loves to play, not wound.

The slipcase has signs of wear throughout, namely a few wear marks on the bottom, a bumped corner also at the bottom and two small pen marks in one of the sides. Very good condition overall.; This century has brought a growing awareness of the vast scale of Chinese export of decorative arts from the seventeenth century onwards. Until very recently however this subject had been very little studied, overshadowed as it was by the ever-widening perspectives of China's ancient past. It was nevertheless through this trade, and especially its ceramic wares, that the unique artistic creativity of the Chinese first became widely known and appreciated. This book aims to provide the most detailed and penetrating analysis yet made of the porcelains produced for Western markets during these centuries examining in its seven hundred pages and as many illustrations (one hundred of them in colour) all their many-sided attractions. The often unusual forms of the porcelain, their decorative styles and traditions, the endlessly varying subjects that they portray - and above all the continuous interchange in such themes between the Chinese manufacturers and decorators and their distant clients in the West, by means of the historic trading companies - all these are studied and interpreted more fully, and tabulated more practically for reference than ever before. The work also examines other export goods - painted enamels, carvings in ivory or soapstone, and reverse paintings on glass, to name only a few - which are represented by notable pieces. The material illustrated here is from one of the greatest collections of expert porcelain: assembled with care over nearly fifty years, it contains much that is rare or unique. Mr. and Ms. Motteheded have collected with clear-sighted purpose from the start, in a way no museum can hope to do so, so that today the wealth of rarities in their collection is matched only by its comprehensiveness, providing an ideal foundation for such a study. The authors are well equipped to write a major work on this subject, John Ayers, Keeper of the Far Eastern Section at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is a noted authority on Chinese and Japanese ceramics whose numerous writings include four volumes on the Baur Collection (Geneva, 1968-74). David Howard's book Chinese Armorial Porcelain (London, 1974) has given an entirely new emphasis in the study of export porcelain, its design and dating, as well as the social history behind the great East India Companies. With its superb illustrations and analytical, yet highly readable text, this book offers an indispensable new source of information for the student and the collector.
