Description:
A fine copy. Oblong 8vo. Signed by Josef Schulz. A photo essay about disused military checkpoints and border stations across Europe, catalogued in this series by Polish-born photographer Josef Schulz (+ slideshow).

Description:
New York: Scribner, 1997. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy in a near fine jacket with a crease to the front panel (45 degrees). This is a special signed copy as noted on the bottom of the rear panel of the dust jacket. A mesmerizing novel was a major bestseller when it was published in 1997 and was the most widely reviewed novel of the year. It opens with a legendary baseball game played between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New York Giants in 1951. The home run that won the game was called the Shot Heard Round the World, and was shadowed by the terrifying news that on the same day, Russia tested its first hydrogen bomb. Underworld then tells the story of Klara Sax and Nick Shay, and of a half century of American life during the Cold War and beyond.

His work is constantly evolving and remains innovative, modern and thought-provoking. His work has also been embraced by the record, fashion and film industries. He was commissioned by Stanley Kubrick to recreate the heavily hit graffiti'd areas of New York for Eyes Wide Shut.

Description:
New York: Pantheon, 1992. First edition. Paperback. A near fine copy. Proof copy. From the writer many consider to be the best reporter in the history of The New Yorker, here is a book that brings together his best work. Saloon-keepers and street preachers, gypsies and steel-walking Mohawks, a bearded lady and a 93-year-old "seafoodetarian" who believes his specialized diet will keep him alive for another two decades. These are among the people that Joseph Mitchell immortalized in his reportage for The New Yorker and in four booksâMcSorley's Wonderful Saloon, Old Mr. Flood, The Bottom of the Harbor, and Joe Gould's Secretâthat are still renowned for their precise, respectful observation, their graveyard humor, and their offhand perfection of style. In printed wrappers, with the hint of a corner bump to bottom front corner.
