First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. Illustrated by (cover illus) Charles M. Schulz (illustrator). First Edition. [light wear to extremities, generally a clean tight copy]. Trade PB "A psychiatrist and a psychologist combine their wit and wisdom, and their long experience in helping others, to create and compile a collection of aphorisms such as you've rarely -- if ever -- read before!" (More cynically, one might put it this way: a psychiatrist and a psychologist team up with a small-time publisher to exploit a dubious tie-in with America's most popular comic strip.) Author #1, "Dr. Ben," explains in his introduction that he had once tried an experiment by building a booth along the lines of Lucy's stand in the "Peanuts" strip, and sitting behind it on the street for ten days, during which "people of all ages" stopped by, and the idea for a book was born. (Wonder what the royalty arrangement with Schulz was like?) A few of these pithy sayings are snitched from time-honored sources (Martin Buber, the Talmud, etc.), and one is even credited to Schulz himself.

First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This is "Collections of Incunabula and their Value for Scholars, with Special Reference to the Vollbehr Collection", by Dr. Ernst Schulz , and Translated by Dr. Powell Spring. The book has an informative Foreword by Dr. Pierce Butler (Librarian of the Newbury Library at Chicago). The book has eight facsimile reproductions of 15th century wood engravings. Dr. Butler's foreword starts thusly: "To visit This collection is, for a person of historical imagination, an almost overwhelming experience. these volumes, so fresh and yet so old, reach back into history four and a half centuries and more. If one is fortunate and be entrusted to take into his own hands one of these relics, let him hold it reverently as a precious heirloom of his own ancestral past. Fifteen generations of men have lived and died since these pages were printed. Fifteen generations have wrought and thought while this volume was handed down from fathers to their sons. Against this lapse of years the span of an individual lifetime would dwindle to pathetic littleness, did not this book reveal a pattern in the whole. Four hundred and fifty years of intellectual effort and achievement are crystallized into this book. But of all, the old books, perhaps, are what we most hoard and cherish for they bring us closest to the spirit of the past.
