Paperback. Condition: New. This book is a record of the work of Thoreau MacDonald as a designer and illustrator. The basis of the catalogue is the collection built up by Margaret E. Edison since the early thirties, when TM began to be a leader in Canadian book designing: it is the first bibliographic catalogue of the work of a Canadian artist. Thoreau MacDonald, born near Toronto in 1901, is the only son of J.E.H. MacDonald, a member of the Group of Seven. His childhood was spent in the woods and fields near High Park and his chapter of recollections, written especially for this book, tells of his delight in nature. For the past sixty years he has lived in Thornhill and his love and respect for the rural way of life is referred to by Barker Fairley in an introductory letter, also written for this book. As Fairley says, '. when I say your name or think of you, I see old gates and fences and farmlands and early cottages, farm inplements, domestic animals, wild animals, birds flying, not many people .' These are the themes of Thoreau MacDonald's illustrative work and his skill in black and white -- pen drawing mainly with an occasional linocut -- is immense. An evaluation of his work by E.R. Hunter, art critic and author of a book on Thoreau MacDonald, is contained in the text of this book. It will appeal not only to librarians, book collectors and dealers, lovers of Canadiana, but also to that less easily defined group of people who have a real nostalgia for the old ways of rural life.…

Single Issue Magazine. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. New York: MacFadden Publications, 1940. First Edition. Classic cover by Rosalie Rush. 11 3/8" x 8 1/2", illustrated wraps, 66 pp. Small amount of age toning at page and cover margins, also small amount of soiling, moderate damage around staple holes in spine. Very Good. A bright, sharp copy. See scans. This issue of Liberty is collectible largely for its Pin-Up cover art, the work of Rosalie Rush, a prolific and admired cover artist of the era. Notable articles include "My Sex Life", my Mahatma Gandhi (yes, you read that correctly. Now there's an article you don't see every day, but it is as titled) ; "Keeping America American", a description of American Legion activities by Raymond J. Kelly; "Frederic March and the Hollywood Reds" (staff; you can see where this is going.); "What Italy Plans" (Virginia Gayda); "Is Your Child Being Taught To Loaf?" (George E. Sokolsky); "A Lamp in the Darkness" (Fannie Hurst) ; "How To Find A Job" (Professor Walter B. Pitkin); "How Many of These 46 Sports Questions Can You Answer ?" (Jack Dempsey); and "The Silver-Fox Poor!" (Eula Scott). Short stories include "Magic In a Mist" (Eric Hatch); "The Baby's Had A Hard Day" (Anne Wormser); and "Something's Young and Growing - Liberty's Short Short" (N. Conkling). Liberty generally had serials by name writers going on, too, and this issue is no exception, with "Oomph Girl - Part III" (Margaret E. Sangster); "Mannerheim: Hero of Finland - Part III" (Emil Ludwig); and "Calcutta Adventure - Part VII" (Edison Marshall). Standard features as well, and, of course, a number of funky illustrated period ads. The cover sustains much of the collectibility, however; a Good Girl cover was something of a departure for this magazine. Nice Coca-Cola ad on back. Please see scans. lpr4.
