  • Clochemerle Les Bains – Gabriel Chevallier – First UK Edition 1964

    Clochemerle Les Bains – Gabriel Chevallier – First UK Edition 1964

    A super copy of this fun book translated by Xan Fielding and published by Secker & Warburg, Lonon in 1964. Thick octavo, 448 pages, lively dust jacket designed by A Games.

    Not sure what age you have to be to remember the riotous naughty comedy series about the characters and goings on in this idyllic French village. Well written but with a wit beyond and a good dousing of hanky-panky, maybe not entirely in fitting with now norms (oh dreary me). Regardless, anyone with warm blood is likely to enjoy until the end and pine a little for French wine and real cheese.

    Clochemerle where lives were lived to the full and nobody got injured – well permanently injured

  • Ten Droll Tales – Honere de Balzac – Illustrated by Jean de Bosschere – First 1926

    Ten Droll Tales – Honere de Balzac – Illustrated by Jean de Bosschere – First 1926

    The best rendition of Balzac’s hilarious and modestly erotic work. A very collectable item. Carries the distinguished bookplate of bibliophile Lancelot Goodenough Hayter (1882-1946) whose family can be traced back to the 16th Century – Hayter is a corruption of a German word meaning “Entertainer”.

    A fine production published by John Lane the Bodley Head as a limited edition in 1926. Large octavo, xx, 221 pages, bound in original orange cloth covered boards, lavish gilt decoration, numbered 918 of a limited 1,000 copies. With the originally designer dust jacket; very much a rarity, albeit with the odd chip. Very good condition, decorated boards clean, internally very good a super copy.

    Longer title explains more … Ten droll Tales. Being the story of the Fair Imperia, the Venial Sin, the Merrie Diversions of the Christian Majesty King Louis the Eleventh, together with certain other Quaint and Piquant Histories making up the First Decade of the Droll Tales of the Master Honore de Balzac rendered faithfully into English by J. Lewis May, with an Introduction by Andre Maurois and Illustrations by Jean De Bosschere.

    And, it’s the remarkable, decadent, illustrations by Jean de Bosschere that really make the book as well as his design for the book binding itself. Sixteen full page coloured illustrations – in his usual striking palette; and further line drawings in keeping with the overall theme

    Droll and rather titillating – Beautiful Bosschere illustrations – Rare Dust Jacket

  • “The Arabian Nights” – The Book of the Thousand Nights and A Night & The Supplemental Nights to the Thousand Nights and A Night – 16 Volumes Complete – Sir Richard Francis Burton

    “The Arabian Nights” – The Book of the Thousand Nights and A Night & The Supplemental Nights to the Thousand Nights and A Night – 16 Volumes Complete – Sir Richard Francis Burton

    To many, one of the greatest men to live in the Victorian era Sir Richard Francis Burton- Adventurer, Explorer, Linguist extraordinaire… originally published the first ten volume work in 1885 and the additional six volumes between 1886 and 1888.

    Criticised and acclaimed Burton did not hold back exposing the sexual imagery in the source texts and further emphasising by adding extensive footnotes and appendices on Oriental sexual more.

    Because of strict laws on obscene material these volumes were printed privately for subscribers only by “The Burton Club” – this set circa 1910.

    Collectable and gift worthy. A trifle rubbed here and there and the gilt spines a little light affected – otherwise a super and substantial set.

    Heavy and obviously large in scale – a postage supplement will be required, at cost, dependent on the location of the purchaser … please enquire – it will be worthwhile

    The whole of the Arabian Nights in captivating Burton Language.

  • May We Borrow Your Husband? and Other Comedies of the Sexual Life – Graham Greene – First Edition – 1967 Fine Condition

    May We Borrow Your Husband? and Other Comedies of the Sexual Life – Graham Greene – First Edition – 1967 Fine Condition

    Published by the Bodley Head, London in 1967, a first edition.

    Octavo, 188 pages, with super dust jacket designed by Stephen Russ. Very good if not better condition with a fine complete dust jacket

    Twelve short stories by Greene – “Comedies of the Sexual Life” many of which rank among his best.

    The subtitle we are told not to be interpreted too narrowly … and we agree. Many different characters and settings, from the South of France to the Caribbean. The title piece is really super and packs in so much in just 40 pages.

    We also like the reality of “The Over-night Bag” and the Invisible Japanese Gentlemen

    Greene wit at its best .. makes a great and thoughtful gift.

  • The Scandalous Adventures of Captain Frederick Watson Wentworth – Hysterical Memoirs “edited” by Reg A Watson – Signed by the Author

    The Scandalous Adventures of Captain Frederick Watson Wentworth – Hysterical Memoirs “edited” by Reg A Watson – Signed by the Author

    Reg Watson, who left us last year, was a prolific writer. Many serious and seriously researched works flowed from his pen.

    Effectively self published by the author in 2016 backed by the Anglo-Keltic Society. Large format perfect bound 92 pages, very good condition.

    This is for sure a work of humour right from the Hysterical and the warning from the Canberra Censor … restricted publication adults only we – know this is yarn over fact.

    Captain Wentworth – A Tasmanian Rake and Cad (1872-1949) certainly had an eventful life. Always wore his trousers one size to small to show his fine cut to the female kind. During his exploits he meets Breaker Morant and Chubbie Miller the female aviator and survives the Titanic. The erotic parts exit but are tame enough for general release – he seemed to attract women with a penchant for high leather boots and whips …

    Signed copy of the readable enjoyable adventures of Captain Wentworth.

    With and introduction and text by Kurt von Meier.

    First edition published by the Hogarth Guild, California [of all places] in 1970. Quarto, 187 pages illustrated throughout in colour from the exquisite colour risque engravings from the Master.

And there was also highly explicit erotica for his private clientele; never published publicly and now only found in “special” collections.

    Rowlandson and his take on the naught Georgian and they were … surprise your friends …
