Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Each of the 12 prints signed & dated by Miller in pencil, under the printed signatures, & book signed & dated, 1970. This copy consists of an (approx.) 18 x 24 1/2" (x 1 3/4" deep) wooden portfolio box. The top is a wooden panel that slides in grooves; reverse side of top is a… plywood panel stained dark brown with upper & lower applied two-toned wooden strips, red edges; large mounted photo of Miller seated on toilet, title reading: from Loujon Press Insomnia or the Devil at Large Henry Miller. The long sides of the box are covered in a red, green & gold "oriental" geometric floral design paper, other 2 sides & inner sides of box stained black, underside of box stained dark red. Top is followed by a smaller piece of corrugated cardboard used as protector in shipping, then a larger sheet of pasteboard covered in gray textured paper on front with a 6 ½ x 5 1/4" mounted b/w photo of girl ("Hoki") in the upper section. Then follows the 12 prints (each approx. 17 x 22") prints: reproductions of Miller's drawings & watercolors, each signed & dated in pencil by Miller, 10/15/70. The silver sheen of the graphite is visible on each of these soft pencil signatures; the bottom of the box is lined with plastic foam with a central well to hold a copy of the spiral bound book (Insomnia), reproducing Miller's manuscript, photos, etc. The bottom of this is well lined with a brown & tan toned paper. The copy of Insomnia supplied with this set shows these variations: wrap around clot- backed dustjacket shows the large "oriental" floral design printed in blue & black with light green squares & light yellow / tan over the gold background rather than red & black mentioned in Miller bibliography (see below for comparison). Signed at head of colophon page: Henry Miller May 1st 1970. Above this is rubberstamped in red is: Edition G 385 copies. Book signed. On the reverse of last page of Miller's printed text has been stamped in red: "Colophon Oversights & Erratum: Book is autographed in Ed. G. Ed. C, gold nameplate, not silver. Book also signed in Editions C, B & A. Ed. A: pub. price, [-]; prepub, prepaid, [-]. Wm. Webb lives in Carmel, not Big Sur. "Hoki" is Hiroko Tukudu Miller's nickname." The paper covered sides of the wooden box show minor rubbing to some edges; small oval where paper surface has been scratched off near one corner, very small nick to left side of mounted photo on top of box; else, a fine & well preserved set, of which less than 10 were produced. This copy does not have the gold nameplate mentioned in the Bibliography below, nor any sign of ever having one & the colors of the book dust jacket, etc. vary from the red & gold mentioned in Bibliography (see description above). Here follows the Bibliography citation for issue C for comparison: [Henry Miller Bibliography, 1993, p. 409]: "A175c Insomnia Or The Devil At Large 1970 First Edition/Issue C: 12 Prints Signed [overprinted on Miller bibliography that is in English and Japanese] / [ornamental design] A Loujon Press Award Book [ornamental design] / Insomnia [red] or the Devil at Large / Henry Miller / [Loujon Press] / [Albuquerque, New Mexico] For this edition, the 12 prints are signed in pencil by Miller [10/15/70], but not inscribed to the buyer, as in Edition B.
