Ajouter au panierHardcover with Pictorial Board. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : No Jacket (As Issued). First Edition/2nd State. Volume I and Volume II were self-published by the author in 1841. These are not the first issue as the error on p. 124 "Frederick for Zedekiah" is not present but it is one of the first three publications defin…itely from the 1841 self-published editions, due to the fact the illustrations are all black & white rather than coloured, as in later issues. Also, there is a statement of " four-hundred" illustrations on the title-page which was not completely accurate and in subsequent printings was changed to "several hundred". Both volumes have red cloth boards with gilt lettering and an embossed gilt illustration of a rider-less horse along with a horse with a rider carrying a spear. The title-page reads "Published By The Author, at The Egyptian Hall Picadilly 1841". Both books have edge wear on the superior and inferior spine edges with bumping of the corners. The front and back paste downs are marbled as are the ffep and rfep. There is a previous owners bookplate attached to the front paste-down of both volumes. The page block in both volumes is tight with only age-toning. The gilt lettering is quite bright and sharp. There is moderate slant to Vol. I. The total postage of $25.00 is for media, insured, domestic shipping due to the fact there are two volumes and are heavier than usual. Catlin, Geo. (illustrateur).

Wear at cover edges, near Very Good. {Howes C-241; Wagner-Camp 84.5; Sabin 11536} "Catlin illustrated his book with line-cut reductions of his original paintings, and in the text described his adventurous years among the Indians. He… recorded his observations of ceremonies, dances, hunting methods, forms of warfare, and the ways of daily living among the major tribes of the high plains and the Rocky Mountains" -- Wagner / Camp / Becker, 84. William Clark -- he of Lewis & Clark fame--testified that "I have seen Mr. Catlin's Collection of Portraits of Indians, east of the Rocky Mountains, many of which were familiar to me, and painted in my presence: as far as they have included Indians of my acquaintance, the likenesses are easily recognized, bearing the most striking resemblance to the originals, as well as faithful representations of their costumes." Among the many images are three maps, one folding. 052507A Americana, Native Americans. Catlin, George (illustrateur).

A couple of spots in the text, a very nice clean copy in a binder's dark blue buckram with black leather labels lettered in gilt. George Catlin (1796-1872) an American painter and chronicler of the indigenous Americans, started his professional life as a lawyer but in 1821 abandoned his legal practice and moved to Philadelphia to pursue a career as an artist. He was elected a member of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in 1824. In 1830, after President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act forcibly expelling all indigenous inhabitants to the east of the Mississippi, Catlin began painting in the western United States to try to record every indigenous tribe before "their passing from the face of the Earth". He made five trips between 1830 and 1836, eventually visiting fifty tribes. When Catlin returned east in 1838, he assembled the paintings and numerous artifacts into his Indian Gallery which exhibited in major cities such as Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and New York. Initially sucessful in this enterprise he attempted to sell his collection to the U.S. government; however the United States Congress rejected his petition to purchase the works. In 1839 Catlin took his collection across the Atlantic for a tour of European capitals. While in London he published 'Letters and Notes on the Manners, Customs, and Condition of the North American Indians' in 1841 of which this third edition was published the following year.

Etat : Fine. 2 Volumes. 8vo. pp. viii, 264; viii, 266. 3 engraved maps (1 folding). 309 illustrations on 177 engraved plates. original blind & gilt-stamped cloth (recased with new endpapers, spines faded & worn, joints frayed, spine ends chipped). Second Edition. A major anthropological study by "one of the most admir…able observers of manners who ever lived among the aborigines of America." (Alexander von Humboldt) The American artist visited a total of forty-eight native tribes on his extensive tour of the great American west, and executed some six hundred paintings, including portraits of Indians in full native dress, views of their villages and wigwams, and portrayals of their games, dances, religious ceremonies, buffalo hunting and other amusements. The present narrative vividly relates his adventures, and faithfully records the manners and customs of the Blackfoot, Cree, Ojibway, Sioux, Pawnee, Osage, Chinook, Cherokee, and other tribes; of special interest is the section on the Mandans of the Upper Missouri, who were annihilated by smallpox in 1837. The numerous illustrations were copied and reduced for the engraver by Catlin himself, from his original paintings. McCracken 8G. Howes C-241.
