The later reprint of two of Roth's very early works under the Hansjorg Mayer imprint as part of the systematic reproducing of all of Roth's early publications. The two variants (one per volume) of the same work are either black and white or red and blue - and the placing of the various cards within the folder is entirely under the whim of the reader - allowing a high number of unique variations on the book (we are too lazy at HFA to work out the exact number of combinations but we believe it to be 26!*26! : 1). The printed slipcase has minor marking and surface abrasions but the multiple is internally otherwise near fine - which given the fragility of the die cut cards is a good thing!

Others show him appealing to a mass meeting of dockers not cemented by his early research in number theory and logic but his later popular philosophy books such as "Why I am not a Christian" and tv appearances made him into a well-known figure in the Uk and abroad.

A close to continuous and complete run of this avant garde revolutionary art journal missing only a single number

(Russian Avant Garde /LEF)
NOVYJ LEF. ("New Left") Editor Vladimir Mayakovsky
Moskau, Gosizdat, 1927 /1928.
Two bound volumes retaining original wraps. Uniformly octavo, offered here are numbers 1-12 in 10 issues from the year 1928 and numbers 1-10 and 12 (missing only number 11).from 1928. the second of two journals published the Soviet Left Front of the Arts, or Lef under the direction of Mayakovsky who had won fame before the Revolution for his experimental poetry and flamboyant behavior, the Lef circle included writers Nikolai Aseev, Osip Brik, and Sergei Tret'iakov, filmmakers Sergei Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov, stage director Vsevolod Meyerhold, and literary theorist Viktor Shklovsky all who contribute herein. Notably Rodchenko designed all of the covers of Novyi Lef as well as contributing extensively. Lef argued that artistic forms could not be disassociated with ideology, thus the creation of a new society required the creation of new forms of art. Also central to Lef thought was the conviction that revolutionary art required the active participation of the viewer, who would be transformed by the effort of interpreting the work. This rare near complete set is bound into two modern bindings - with minor trimming to the bottom edge of the journals which does not affect the content in any way. Very good +. Rare as a collection.

SAMA LASKA.
Prague: privately published (Nakladatlstvi Vecervice), 1923.
14 x 19.5 cm. 62 pp. Four textual illustrations by Mrvicka. Beige wrappers with a photographic design in two colors by Mrvicka. First edition of the Nobel Prize-winning Czech authorÕs third book written when he was only 22 years old. The title translates as Sheer Love (or 'Nothing but Love') and, interestingly for the revolutionary writer, places that emotion even above political zeal. Later Seifert left the Communist Party. A co-founder of the avant-garde Devetsil group, together with Karel Teige, Viteslav Nezval, among others, SeifertÕs experimental poems of this period were simultaneously revolutionist and emblematic of the young authorÕs personal investigations. Some heavy foxing to the cover and some chipping to the edges of the wrappers, minor paper loss to spine but internally very fine and the glue binding remains solid. Rare.

Siegelaub's wish was to diminish the role of dealers (hmmph!) and give art back some of its purity. the failure of the venture lead indirectly, and in part, to his decision to retire as a major influence in the world of contemporary art.

(Sigma Project /Trocchi)
Sigma Portfolio
A rare continuous run of the earliest 5 publications, and a single, out of sequence issue, and two ephemeral items from Trocchi's Sigma Project which tried to create a new direct relationship between reader and writer. Trocchi's adherence to the Situationist International, made these some of the most influential political texts in English available at that time. Individual copies of the Portfolios in good condition are hard to find and a continuous run of early issues particularly valuable. Issues vary as per format and pagination.

The group is thus:

(Sigma Portfolio) Burroughs, William S. MARTIN'S FOLLY (= Sigma Portfolio, No. 1) London: Project Sigma, 1964. 1pp broadside, 75 x 50cm unfolded size but folded into eighths (as issued). the design of this, Trocchi's first release under the banner of the Sigma Portfolio, was a large poster designed to resemble the front page of a newspaper and originally intended to be displayed in subway stations until the project became unfeasible. The Burrough's text is conjoined with "The Barbecue" by Trocchi, and other smaller contributions. Apart from the folding, very good copy of this hard to find item. Trocchi, Alexander Sigma Portfolio, No 2 London: Project Sigma, 1964. 33 x 21cm, four, single sided mimeographed sheets stapled at the corner. Project Sigma was Trocchi's attempt to send his Situationist inspired writing direct to the reader without the mediation of a major publishing house or even any design. Here his influential "Invisible Insurrection of a Million Minds" is reprinted from the Saltire Review of the previous year. Fine. Trocchi, Alexander Sigma Portfolio, No 3 London: Project Sigma, 1964. 33 x 21cm, three, single sided mimeographed sheets stapled at the corner. Content of "Sigma: A Tactical Blueprint" by Alexander Trocchi, an important early text outlining plans for the Sigma Project. Fine. Sigma Portfolio, No 4 London: Project Sigma, 1964. 33 x 21cm, four, single sided mimeographed sheets stapled at the corner. Content of "Potlatch" an anonymous text asking for contributions for an interpersonal log-book for Sigma members. The text continues with an in-depth explanation of Situationist theory. Fine. Sigma Portfolio, No. 5, 1964. London: Project Sigma, 1964. 33 x 21cm, four, single sided mimeographed sheets stapled at the corner. Content of a reprint of "Sigma: General Information" an anonymous text conjuring the influences of Wallace Berman, R. D. Laing, and Situationist theory. Fine. added (Sigma Portfolio) Burroughs, William S. THE INVISIBLE GENERATION London: Project Sigma, 1966. Out of sequence broadside reprinting a text by Burroughs that originally appeared in International Times; certainly with one of the the longest published sentences in the English language at 900 + words before the presence of a full stop. Bibliographic sources suggest this reprint was not given a Sigma index number and was apparently distributed by International Times who provided the offprints but was regarded by Trocchi as part of the Project's output. B/w image of a photographic collage of Burroughs. Former horizontal center crease, else fine. A scarce item added a Sigma subscription form and a promotional flyer both offset, 8vo. Fine.

Price for all 6 issues and two items of ephemera: 950 uk pounds.

Some individual issues - #1, #2 and #5 may be available outside of this run - POA.

The Centre soon became the site for a series of large-scale shows of experimental and kinetic art, and published 10 issues of the periodical, Signals Newsbulletin, edited by Medalla. Signals featured work by an international roster of artists, including Takis (Greece), Lygia Clark, Helio Oiticica (Brazil), Jesus Rafael Soto and Alejandro Otero (Venezuela) and Pablo Neruda (Chile) - and later promoted the work of the Zero group out of Germany. Later Mandella became an important artist in his own right with large, kenetic,bubble sculptures. Very good condition.

A small strip of super 16 film enclosed in a transparent, 7 x 7 cm heat-sealed plastic bag (about 2 seconds worth) displays a large waterslide with a swimmer descending quickly. A bigger splash perhaps? Signed and dated on the sealed platic bag by Signer in an unknown edition (probably a few hundred). The other objects are a charcoal 3- D "Ampersand" by Theys, a full size wax little finger ("Kleiner Finger") by Stadtbaumer and Kok's balloon ("Maxi-colour") which has unavoidably perished (as almost always happens with rubber balloons - see for example warhol's Index Book multiple) but is still readable in the box.

Situationistische Internationale
DAS ELEND DER STRUDENTEN UND DER BEGINN EINER EPOCHE
Dusseldorf, S.I, , 1970 21 x 14.5cm, 38pp plus printed card covers. A German pamphlet which reprints a section of a lengthy article ("Le commencement d'une epoche") from Internationale Situationiste 12, which considers the role of students in revolutionary activity - an active area of S.I. debate following the "Strasburg scandal" where a group of "proto-Situ"s found themselves elected to the board of the Student Union of Strasburg University thanks to a low poll. Their use of student funds to publish the pamphlet 'On the Poverty of Student Life" caused a massive scandal and the group was soon prosecuted for misuse of public money. In advance of May 1968, such high profile activities only boosted the S.I.'s cred - and the role of students in the Parisian uprisings only increased the perceived importance of a politicised youth amongst Situationist theorists (where before only the alienated were presumed of more interest). Also contains translations into German of another Vaneigem article from #12 and several detourned images and photographs of student activities. Fine example of this propagandising pamphlet.

100 x 70cm, 3 colour (florescent red and yellow) silkscreened exhibition poster designed by the artist. A psychedelic, design which is not only in keeping with the times but displays some of the artist's works (such as one of his "knots'), his own image pulling a knotted balloon around himself and a collage element (in reproduction). Formerly folded into 8ths, there is a slight amount of damage at the very ends of the folds (with no paper loss) but otherwise this is a very good example of a wonderful and striking poster which if framed would be spectacular.

Similar interests in the creation of provocations and new ways of living merged well with the IS theorists then currently becoming widely noticed.

A GROUP OF OVER 45 PUBLICATIONS BY OR RELATING TO SIMON VINKENOOG INCLUDING MANY EARLY WORKS AND ORIGINAL TYPESCRIPTS
Dutch poet, political activist and provocateer, Vinkenoog first gained attention in Paris during the 1950s as an associate of the Cobra grouping. Active as one of the poets of the so-called 'Vijftiger' group (a grouping of more or less experimental poets which included Lucebert, Claus, Kouwenaar amongst others; the whole affilated to Cobra and influenced by the latter's proto-Situationist politics), later Vikenoog became an important and active member of Provo while acting as literary editor of a number of small but influencial periodicals such as as Blurb and Braak in the Netherlands. His political activities brought him to prominance as a major political theorist and advocate of a counter-culture lifestyle and a strong advocate of the liberating promise of the, then, newly discovered psychedelic drugs. His artistic work also touched on the emerging Happening and Fluxus movements. Offered here is group of 47 different publications, unique items and hard to find issues of periodicals covering almost all aspects of Vinkenoog's political and poetic work including some very early unique typescripts of poems and some rare publications. All in very good or better condition (unless noted otherwise). Details on request.

NYC: Editor 3rd Rail Gallery, 1963
15 x 10cm, 20pp plus printed wrappers. Vostell's artist book created out of a performance at the YAM festival in New Brunswick of 1963. Vostell's performance consisted of "blending" (actually grinding) a copy of the New York Times with other ingredients including French perfume, pepper, morning glory seeds and sneeze powder and spraying the audience with the blend. A decollage indeed. Previously folded but later flattened and with some minor marking and staining to rear cover but overall very good. Extremely rare.

AUTO / HOMMAGE AN HENRY FORD! EINE HAPPENINGUMGEBUNG. VON VOSTELL / TSAKIRIDIS / DIETRICH
Koln: Auto Pavillion Maletz, 1967,
74 x 56.5 cm artist designed exhibition poster with tipped on transparent plastic bag (31 x 21cm) as issued containing three mini posters - each designed by one of the participating artists and folded into different shapes , respectively Deitrich - rectangle - unfolded size 19.4 x 29.4 cm - red on yellow; Tsakiridis - triangle - "Automanifest" - unfolded size 21 x 21 cm - black on blue; and Vostell - square - unfolded size 47 x 54 cm - the latter in a full spectrum of colour on white. The whole previously folded for storage purposes - the entire deluxe construction is a veritible tour de force of poster design. Obviously some fold marks and a small area behind the plastic is unavoidably slightly stained from the glue but overall this is in very good condition and rare.

POSTVERSAND ROMAN
Neuwed, Hermann Luchterhand Verlag, n.d. (1969)
Nos 1-11, in the original envelopes with the silver coloured binder in the first envelope. An extremely rare (especially with the envelopes) complete if un-made up set of this 'mail novel' by Faecke and Vostell, complete with the bound in 45rpm record multiple (music by Faecke) in no. 3. The work contains many b/w images (most full page) and fold outs by Vostell - including many de/collage images (of wrecked cars, objects for destroying things, some appropriated pornographic imagery, etc.). One mailing envelope (nr 1) has been slightly water damaged in the past (although the contents are fine since they were removed before the water damage occurred) but otherwise this is a very good and complete collection. This copy is signed and numbered (from an edition of 200) by both artists on the back cover (with Vostell's signature in part deliberately over an elastoplast) and is very rare especially with the mailing envelopes extant.

BEST IN CHILDREN'S BOOKS
NYC: Doubleday, 1959
21.8 x 14.8cm, 160pp plus boards and pictorial dustjacket. A book of children's stories notable because of the eight full colour lithographs by a younger Warhol during his pre-pop illustrator period when he was well-known as a commercial designer. The drawings are sweet vignettes reflecting the story (The Magic Porridge Pot) and have similarities in the artistÕs use of a thin line (with filled in colour) to the designs and drawings produced by the artist in the 50s. There is an additional ninth coloured drawing by Warhol reproduced on the back cover. Very good.

A COMPLETE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN PORTFOLIO
Milan: Luciano Anselmino, 1975
Ten screenprints on Arches paper Š uniformly 110.5 x 72.4cm (paper size) Š image size varies slightly Š 85 x 67.5 approx. Warhol sent his assistant out into the night to gather a group of transvestites and transsexuals, most from a night club called the Golden Grape. The resulting photographs were transformed into this portfolio with WarholÕs colourist influence reworking the images by hand. Very good condition Š these prints are currently framed (verso paper hinges) and could easily be shipped out of frame. Increasingly scarce as an entire portfolio as dealers have split up the groups. An impressive sight when displayed together on a single wall. One of 125 signed and numbered prints (aside from 25 A/Ps and 1 PP). Provenance Š previously part of a collection owned by the now disgraced and jailed former Tory MP, Jeffrey Archer. FS II. 128 Š 137.

LENIN 1987
Berlin: Bernd Kluser, 1987
100 x 74cm screenprint on Arches 88 paper. FS II.402. The Black Lenin Š one of WarholÕs most sought after prints. Throughout his career WarholÕs amusement in displaying icons of anti-capitalism and profiting from the venture was obvious. However the brooding image of the brows of V.I. staring out from the mostly dark background is beguiling and ominous . Very good condition in frame although with very slight scuffing on the top black areas (as common with this print) .

One of the msot Kitsch Warhol images which was published "on the occassion f the bavarian Reinsurance Company" which is perhaps not a good starting point for anya rt object, but, perhaps surprisingly, Warhol's colourist reworking of the picture postcard bavarian Schloss is very attractive and works well. Signed and numbered in an edition of 140 including several A/Ps. Fine. (Feldman/Schellman II 372)

Finkelstein, Nat and Hyland, Angus
ANDY WARHOL: THE FACTORY YEARS. With unique c-print.
Edinburgh: Cannongate Books, 2000
282 x 245 mm large format photographic book in printed slipcase (displaying FInkelstein's contact prints from the shoot). Only 142 books in this limited edition aside from the large run trade edition were published - each with a unique 19 x 24 cm c-print from the book laid in on the inside cover (easily removed for framing) and stamped with Finkelstein's studio stamp. Each book is numbered and signed by the photographer and designer. Finkelstein was well known in the 60s as a photographer and film-maker and his back-lit image of Warhol meeting Dylan is iconic. The production of this book is superb - with shocking pink, plush covers with an inlaid silkscreen portrait of Warhol, silver endpapers and with full page colour and black and white reproductions throughout with some minimal text in English by Finkelstein. Warhol's Factory shines through in silver lame, as do many of the actors and hangers-on who starred in the daily NY drama. We have retained the remaining issues of the edition that include photographs of Warhol himself (others are also available include Eddie Sedgewick), if seriously interested contact us and we will send images of the remaining photographs by email. A 'must have' for all pop art collectors.

Grenoble: Centre National DÕart Contemporain, 1987
32.5 x 23cm printed envelope (which reproduces WeinerÕs well known three statements of intent in French and English) content of two cardboard stencils which express the title text in both languages. Artist designed multiple which was sent out to the entire mailing list of the Centre. The work was "lent to the receiver for one year" and was presumably no longer a work after that date. The question arises - is this still a multiple by the artist or a redundant piece of ephemera? Does it matter? Very good stencils (unused) in slightly bashed up envelope.

NEW MUSIC AT THE POCKET THEATRE
NYC: Foundation for Contemporary Performance Arts, n.d. (Fall 1963)
35.5 x 18.5cm, 1pp b/w offset poster with a hand-coloured abstract design. The scarce announcement for this benefit gig which saw most of the New Music/Fluxus pack perform works over three different days in August and September of 1963. These concerts included the famous performance by the Pocket Theatre Piano Relay Team (put together by Cage) of Erik Satie's Vexations for the complete projected 12 hours on this notice (this was to be the only complete performance of that piece ever to that date). Later Marion Zazeela remembered the concert as taking 24 hours but other documentations suggest it was 18 hours and 40 minutes) and that la Monte Young had declined taking part in that particular concert despite performing in the earlier concerts. The actual performers of Vexations were apparently as follows: John Cage, David Tudor, Christian Wolff, Philip Corner, Viola Farber, Robert Wood, MacRae Cook, John Cale, David Del Tredici, James Tenney, Howard Klein and Joshua Rifkin and the event (where the piece is played 840 times in succession as instructed by Satie) became an important event in the history of New Music. Months later the first concerts of La Monte Young 'Pre-Tortoise Dream Music' and 'The Tortoise, His Dreams and Journeys' took place in the same theatre (which was founded by Arthur Conescu and soon became an important alternative performance space in New York). Folded but otherwise fine.
