James Joyce Autograph and an Henri Matisse Autograph in a Scarce Limited Edition of “Ulysses”
Scarce copy of “Ulysses” rare book by James Joyce, illustrated by Henri Matisse. New York: The Limited Editions Club: 1935. Number 297 of a limited edition run of 1500 copies. One of only 250 such copies signed by both Joyce and Matisse. Boldly signed by the author and illustrator on limitation page. Full brown buckram boards with gilt embossing to front cover and backstrip. Large octavo measures 9″ x 11.5″. Volume runs 420pp. with an introduction by Stuart Gilbert and illustrations by Henri Matisse including 20 reproductions of preliminary drawings and six original soft-ground etchings. In 1935 George Macy, founder of the fledgling Limited Editions Club, made the bold decision to commission Matisse to illustrate Joyce’s controversial and previously banned masterpiece, “Ulysses.” Matisse, understanding that Joyce’s work parodied the original eighteen episodes of the “Odyssey,” chose to create his 26 full-page illustrations as actual illustrations of Homer’s original work. Matisse later signed all 1500 of Macy’s limited edition, however, as legend has it, when Joyce realized that Matisse had been working from Homer’s “Odyssey” rather than his novel, he refused to sign any more than the 250 copies he had already signed making this double-signed edition exceedingly rare. Rare book without original slipcase, else fine condition. Sold for $14,460.

In this quintessentially American novel, Twain introduces Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn and their mischievous adventures in antebellum Missouri.

American Novelist Thomas Pynchon Autograph on a Typed Letter — “…I would of course be happy to sign some books for your son – it would be an honor…” — 1986 — With PSA/DNA COA
Thomas Pynchon typed letter signed. The notoriously reclusive author dates the letter 21 August 1986 and writes: “…Thank you for your letter, and please excuse my delay in answering. I would of course be happy to sign some books for your son – it would be an honor to help out. He is fortunate to have you as a source of love and support. People have told me that lymphoma is a tough fight, and I don’t see how it’s possible to neglect – or underestimate – the spirit, and the will to prevail. I know somebody, in fact, with a similar diagnosis, whose eventual survival depended on just that. Right now I’m in transit so the best way to do this is by way of my agent…[signed] Thomas Pynchon”. Thomas Pynchon, famed author of “Gravity’s Rainbow,” is notoriously reluctant to sign his acclaimed and controversial novels, though here proves that he will do so for a good cause. Letter measures approximately 8.5″ x 11″. In very good condition. Accompanied by COA from PSA/DNA. Sold for $2,925.

Fitzgerald Molloy, author of several novels at the turn of the century, in part ”Dear Sir, I should be strangely made if I were indifferent to the praise of my fellow writers; and I thank you for your kindness in writing to give it [to] me. It is scarcely vanity to & care to succeed in what we undertake; I could find a better name for the feeling…which I remember with the greatest clearness is the ‘Autumn Holiday’; and if that was yours, I think I am already in your debt. For if I remember clearly, it was the success of the Autumn Holiday, and the pleasure I had in reading it, which encouraged to write and prepare for…my Inland Voyage. If it was not yours, well, we must all be prepared for Sosias: and I am myself haunted by a ‘Mr. Stevenson the author’ or umbra nominis, for me – who comes and goes and sometimes passes for me / Yours truly / Robert Louis Stevenson”. The check that’s also included is addressed to an H.J. Moors, Esq. for nine shillings, dated 28 May 1892 and signed ”R.L. Stevenson”.
