Manuscrit / Papier ancien Signé
From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See his entry, and that of Brooke, in the Oxford DNB. The five items are in good condition, lightly aged and worn. ONE: Carbon of Typed Article titled London Was Unlucky to Him / The Story of Gustavus Brooke, The Tragic Tragedian . 11pp, 4to, on eleven leaves. Begins: There is nothing so ephemeral as the art of the actor. Very very few of the names live on. Yet there are some, who in their day were of the first magnitude and are now forgotten, save for the delving historian. That is a pity, for many of them deserve a niche in Fame and such a one was Gustavus Vaughan Brooke, the Tragic Tragedian. His life was one long exciting adventure of triumph and disaster. [.] He was one of the great ones of the early nineteenth century. His life ad his career resembled that of Edmund Kean. TWO: Carbon of (apparently earlier) draft of article. 11pp, 4to. No changes to text are apparent, but the layout is different. THREE: Another carbon of Item Two. FOUR: Carbon of TL from MP to the editor of Everybody s Greville Poke (also see his entry in the Oxford DNB). 13 July 1950. He is sending the story of Gustavus Brooke. I know it is a little long but, believe me, it is a great story. He has plenty of illustrations . Elsewhere he writes that he is rather sorry Poke did not like his suggestion concerning the musical comedy situation because this turned out to be what I think is one of the best articles I have ever written. I sold it elsewhere at once . FIVE: TNS written on behalf of the editor of Everybody s magazine, Greville Poke (also see his entry in the Oxford DNB), on the magazine s letterhead, 14 July 1950. 1p, 4to. Signed for Greville / WS . Reads: My dear Popie, / Thanks for sending along the manuscript of GUSTAVUS BROOKE. I shall be getting into this in the near future, I hope. .

Hardcover. Etat : Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is a good hardcover first edition copy in green cloth binding. With the bookplate for the Union for Christian Work Free Lending Library pasted on the top board. Which explains the well read look. But better than a reading copy with 499 pages and all 16 plates painted by Miss Fairfax and Mrs. McAuley from drawings by the author. This book is a sequel to Pope's novel of the previous year, Journey to Mars. This Venus volume features the same hero and heroine, Lt. Frederick Hamilton, USN, and his love interest the Martian princess Suhlamia. They travel to Venus on a four masted Martian "ethervolt" spacecraft that looks a lot like the James Webb Space Telescope. Photos on request.

Octavo, pp. [1-2] [1-4] 5-499 [500: blank], two inserted plates with illustrations by Miss Fairfax and Mrs. McAuley from drawings by the author, original red cloth, front and spine panels stamped in gold, plain white endpapers. First edition. A later issue of the first edition with the "Arena" imprint on the spine panel and a cancel title page with Neely's imprint. This novel, the second and last of Pope's projected "Romances of the Planets" series, was first published by Arena Publishing Company in 1895. Arena issued the novel in two forms, in cloth with sixteen inserted plates, and in paper with three inserted plates. Neely acquired the Arena sheets (and some clothbound copies) and reissued them with cancel title pages. Although sixteen was the full compliment of plates for the copies bound in cloth, many of the hardbound copies issued by Arena and reissued by Neely have fewer inserted plates, generally three, but sometimes two or four. This copy has two plates. About 1897 Neely reprinted the novel on cheap pulp paper stock as a 25¢ paperback with two inserted plates. In Pope's sequel to JOURNEY TO MARS. (1894), the protagonist and his Martian princess visit Venus, a younger world comparable to some stage of earth's prehistory.

Armorial bookplate of William Gilbert Davies affixed to the front paste-down. A presentation copy, inscribed to "his friend" Davies by Neely, the publisher. A few faint spots to cloth, spine a bit darkened, a very good copy. A very attractive, much better than average copy of this book. (#169923).

Octavo, pp. [i-ii] iii-vii [viii] 9-543 [544: blank], flyleaves at front and rear, original decorated bevel-edged brown cloth, front panel stamped in silver, spine panel stamped in gold, white endpapers with floral pattern printed in green. First edition. The first of Pope's two published "Romances of the Planets," a projected series of interplanetary romances describing the exploration of the solar system by Martian scientists. Lieutenant Frederick Hamilton, a U.S. naval officer shipwrecked in the Antarctic, saves the life of a Martian prince, a member of an expedition to Earth to establish a Martian colony and communication between the two planets. The exploring party takes Hamilton to Mars where he meets Princess Suhlamia. They fall in love (they do not marry during the course of this novel or its sequel; Martian courtships are lengthy). Hamilton is imprisoned and sentenced to death by a rival suitor, the villainous Prince Diavojahr. Hamilton escapes and is reunited with Princess Suhlamia. But Mars faces a far greater peril than the consequences of the political skullduggery of the evil prince; an approaching meteor swarm and the possible fall of Phobos and Deimos onto Mars threaten the planet. A party of Martians is sent to Earth to establish a colony for millions of the doomed planet's inhabitants, but it must return before completing its mission because the dastardly Prince Diavojahr has captured the south polar spaceport and Princess Suhlamia is in danger. Nothing is resolved in this novel; Pope intentionally suspends the action in order to create interest in his sequel, A JOURNEY TO VENUS (1895). "Many of the colorful ingredients that characterized the later Martian romances of Edgar Rice Burroughs are present, such as the juxtaposition of swords and superscientific weaponry, and reflect a decayed, once advanced civilization. An idea-packed novel which some critics think inspired Burroughs's work." - Locke, Voyages in Space 162. Anatomy of Wonder (1976) 2-126; (1981) 1-139; (1987) 1-76; and (1995) 1-76.

A fairly nice copy of an uncommon book seldom found in decent condition. (#156385).
