Contact seller4-star sellerSigned by the Author. Octavo, red boards (hardcover), gilt letters, map illus. endpapers, 236 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: Drawing upon ght lore of the true cracker, here is everything you thought you knew about Florida. Sit back with the wit and wisdom of a tenth-generation native as he tells the real histo…ry of the Sunshine State that you didn't learn in school. Covering five centuries of people and events, Vic Knight's Florida spins the yarns that give Florida his unique character. Knight dispels many historical myths, starting with how the name was chosen. Most people, Floridians and foreigners alike, would claim that "Florida" came from a Spanish word for flowers. Actually, Florida is named for Pascua de Flores, the Spanish name for Easter Sunday, the day Ponce de Leon first set foot on Cape Canaveral's sandy shore. Another historical piece of lore describes how the Johnson administration nearly removed five hundred years of history in just thirty minutes when they changed the name of Cape Canaveral to Cape Kennedy. Other points of trivia include the story of the hotel where the future Duchess of Windsor waitressed; a few blossoms of a Japanese plant that created a nightmarish choking of the major waterways; the land boom towns that failed and those that survived when railroads came through; and how, for a brief period of time, Florida was its won country. Vic Knight has compiled stories from a variety of respected sources, but the telling is all his. He brings a stylish humor to each story with a flair for highlighting the funny, but true folklore of the state. Florida, Floridiana, Florida History, Americana, U.S.-iana. bslic.

Contact seller4-star sellerQuarto, black cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 160 pp. Fine in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: Though the Mardi Gras tradition in New Orleans was always festive, with masked revelers dancing and parading in the streets of the Creole sector, it was not until 1857 that the stunning torchlit procession of the… Mistick Krewe of Comus premiered the first floats. In a procession hailed as a "revolution in street pageantry, a revelation in artistic effects," Comus set the scene for the Carnival majesty that continues today. The fantastic parade floats of Carnival's Golden Age (1870-1930) depicted themes drawn from mythology, epic literature, history, nature, and whimsy. The glimmering processions of the masked gods and bearded kings of New Orleans Carnival occupied a central position among the rites and glories of this great festival. The long succession of these glowing, torchlit pageants -- with their towering monsters and fantastic decors, their papier-mache kingdoms and diamond-dust thrones -- became the greatest and most beloved of New Orleans communal rituals. The introduction of the float brought tremendous artistry to the splendid convenyances for Carnival revelry, but the artists and builders who created the fabled pageants have remained obscure or unknown, their amazing body of work largely forgotten. Even the surviving watercolor float plates and chromolithographed Carnival Bulletins are works of art, and prized by collectors, as so few of these fragile items remain. Presented in this collection are dazzling examples of original float designs as rendered in watercolor and lithographs -- most of them reproduced here for the first time.

Contact seller4-star sellerQuarto, black cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 160 pp. Fine in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In addition to the colorful Mardi Gras parades that New Orleans social groups, or krewes, produce for the city's general populance, the Carnival season features elaborate balls, pageants, and tableaux staged for…the krewes' members and invited guests. These productions often rival the pomp of actual royal ceremonies as revelers pay homage to the evening's kings, queens, and debutantes. During the Golden Age of Mardi Gras, the season's appointed rulers flaunted fine crowns, scepters, and other baubles worthy of a real monarch. Each lady in attendance would expect not only a waltz with a masked krewe member, but also a precious gift, or favor, created to coincide with the annual theme. These valuable gifts, often made of silver and gold and adorned with enamel or semiprecious stones, were sometimes given anonymously. Carnival's Golden Age began with the satirical celebrations of the early 1870s, blossomed in grandeur from the 1880s until World War I, and ended with the coming of the Great Depression of the 1930s. Mardi Gras was then a fantastic empire, crowded with scenic parades and pageants drawn from a cornucopia of subjects -- mythology, history, literature, theology, nature, whimsy. The jewelry, favors, and other accessories inspired by these themes reflect the craftsmanship and creativity of the krewes' designers, including Jennie Wilde, Charles Briton, Carlotta Connecaze, and Leda Hincks Plache. This book, the fourth and final in a series of Mardi Gras Treasures, presents the first comprehensive survey, including more than two hundred and fifty color plates, of the jewelry and other precious objects commissioned for the revels of the Golden Age.

From dust jacket: Though Mardi Gras had been celebrated in New Orleans for many years, the Golden Age of Carnival (1870 - 1930) was marked by shimmering pageants and opulent private balls. These balls were attended by coveted invi…tation only, and the invitations were as lushly executed as the balls and pageants themselves. Ball invitations, dance cards, and admit cards reflected exalted themes drawn from mythology, epic literature, religion, and whimsy. Presented in this collection are dazzling examples of that artistry -- masterworks of design and lithography, most of them reproduced here for the first time. New Orleans collectibles, and especially Mardi Gras collectibles, continue to be popular worldwide. This gorgeous volume of vintage Mardi Gras ball invitations, dance cards, and admit cards shows off the kinds of collectibles that are still available. Collectors and non-collectors alike will enjoy this lavish look back on the glories of Carnival art.

From dust jacket: The exuberant theatricality that has long distinguished New Orleans found its first expression in the costumes and masks of Mardi Gras. From the city's early celebrations as a Creole colony to the glimmering page…antry of the Golden Age, costumes remained essential to the New Orleans Carnival. The Golden Age began with the satirical masterworks of the early 1870s, blossomed in grandeur from the 1880s until World War I, and ended with the coming of the Great Depression of the 1930s. Mardi Gras was then a fantastic empire, crowded with scenic costume productions drawn from a cornucopia of subjects -- mythology, history, literature, theology, nature, and whimsy. This book, the third in a series of Mardi Gras Treasures, presents the first comprehensive survey of the wondrous costumes designed for the casts of those papier-mâché tableaux during the Golden Age.
