Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. LEWITT-HIM (Jan Le Witt and George Him). The Football's Revolt. London: Country Life Ltd., 1939. First edition. 4to (285 × 220 mm). 28 pp. Colour-illustrated throughout, with text and images by the design partnership Lewitt-Him. Original pictorial boards, yellow cloth spine. Light soiling and mottling to cloth and boards, corners lightly rubbed, contents clean and fresh, colours bright. A small pencil price of 2/6 to the front cover and early ownership inscription to front free endpaper (dated 1941). The Polish émigré artists Jan Le Witt (1907-1991) and George Him (1900-1982), who settled in Britain in 1937, quickly established themselves as leading figures in modernist graphic design. The Football's Revolt is one of their first books produced in London, combining humorous text with vividly stylised illustrations. Its narrative — in which a football match descends into absurdist chaos as objects and crowds take on lives of their own and a football gets stuck in the air, provided an ideal showcase for them. The book was popular enough to be reissued by Country Life in the 1940s, during the Second World War, though this original 1939 printing is the true first edition.…

BOX SET - Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Edition, First Printing. Primary Information, 2010. BOX SET (The boxed facsimile edition of Avalanche's complete run reproduces the first eight issues individually, and the final five in a single newsprint paperback). First Edition, First Edition. Limited Edition 1/1000 copies.Willoughby Sharp and Liza Béar founded Avalanche shortly after they met in 1968. At the time, Sharp was a New York-based independent curator and Béar an underground magazine editor who had recently moved to New York from London. They published the first issue in 1970 and collaborated on 13 issues from 1970 to 1976. Avalanche focused on art from the perspective of artists rather than critics, and investigated new forms of art that were developing in the U.S. and Europe with probing interviews, extensive use of photography and dynamic layouts. For many artists, publication in Avalanche preceded a one-person gallery or museum show. Aside from an eight-page news section, the editorial content included only interviews, artists' texts and documents of art and art making. All interviews were conducted by Sharp, Béar or done jointly. Among the featured artists were Vito Acconci, Joseph Beuys, Hanne Darboven, Walter De Maria, Jan Dibbets, Philip Glass, Barry Le Va, Sol LeWitt, Richard Long, Gordon Matta-Clark, Bruce Nauman, Dennis Oppenheim, Yvonne Rainer, Keith Sonnier, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson, William Wegman, Lawrence Weiner and Jackie Winsor.

Hardcover. First Edition. about 30 pgs. During the wartime and years to follow they became one of the most influential partnerships in Britain and their illustration style influenced a generation of younger illustrators such as Jack Townend, Hilary Stebbing and many others. Working under the name Lewitt-Him, George Him and Jan Le Witt, who began working together in Warsaw in 1933, arrived in London in 1937. They had already produced some ground-breaking children's books such as Locomotive (1938, first published in Poland) based on the text by the distinguished Polish poet Julian Tuwin. Once in England, the pair created several high-quality children's books, being among the first illustrators working in the UK to introduce modernist elements for this age-group: their style leaned towards abstraction and borrowed elements from Surrealism and Cubism. A typical example is Blue Peter (1943), with text by Jan Le Witt's wife, Alina. This story about a blue dog born to a white mother who is persecuted but eventually finds a home on Blue Dog Island is a parable that no doubt appealed to George Him, a Jew who witnessed the Russian Revolution, and was living through the persecutions and atrocities of the Holocaust at the time of publication.
