L'Alcibiade Fanciullo a' Scola |
One of only one hundred and two numbered copies of this edition, in Italian, of the controversial pederastic treatise, the first re-edition of the book since its original publication in 1652. The preface, printed in French, appears on a separate unbound sheet, which also identifies the publisher and the limitation. The final four pages include four sonnets by "M.V." which also appeared in the original edition. Pia identifies the publisher as Jules Gay, who had printed several other editions of various similar texts. The book was the subject of a condemnation order in 1863 and the books were ordered destroyed. B.N. Enfer 470, Pia 11. Quite uncommon, we find only one institutional copy. Very good in 1/4 vellum binding, top edge gilt, slight marking to half-title and ocassional light spotting, small bookplate on front pastedown. |

Dubbii Amorosi, Altri Dubbii, e Sonetti Lussurioso |
A quite uncommon collection of these obscene sonnets by Aretino, along with the "Erotic Dilemmas" and "Further Dilemmas" mis-attributed to Aretino. The latter are forty-eight poems which pose some obscene or bizarre sexual predicament with a relevant query and the answer gives a witty and cynical solution. Alcide Bonneau, in his Curiosa, (1887) states that while the sonnets are unquestionably by Aretino, the Dubbii cannot be by the same hand. (at 262-65). A very nice copy in contemporary calf binding with blind stamping on covers, gilt margins, hinges a little worn, contemporary penned notation on endpaper (quoting the epitaph of Aretino). Bookplate of Anthony Reid on pastedown (by Ralph Chubb). We find only one copy in a public institution. |

| ATHLETIC MODEL GUILD |
Original Vintage Gay Movie collection |
A collection of thirty-six black and white films, all either 8 or 16 mm. All of the films date from the 1950's and appear to have been produced either by Bob Mizer's Athletic Model Guild or Cincinnati based Spectrum Films. Although quite homoerotic in content, they are not sexually explicit and there are rather quaint by today's male film standards. Some of the films included are the following: "A Late Visitor"; "Initiation Brawl"; "Bathroom Athlete" (AMF); "I Was a Teenage Bum" (AMG); "THe Ungrateful Tramp" (AMG); "Cowboy and the Sailor"; "Jousting"; "Mudfight"; "Gift for Demetrius". All the films are in their original packaging and appear to be in very good condition. Included is the 1958 Spectrum Films catalog, entitled "The Masculine Physique Series", which catalogs many of the films. An interesting glimpse into the history of male films in this country. |
