Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. JAY, Ricky INSCRIBED on title page [63] pp. The Quantuck Lane Press 2003 8 1/4" x 7 7/8" "Ricky Jay asked his friend Rosamond Purcell to photograph and commemorate his crumbing collection of dice. The result is a series of remarkable photographs that inspired Mr. Jay's composition on decomposing dice. These dice made from celluloid, the first commercially manufactured plastic, remain stable for decades, and then in a flash begin to crack, crystallize, and implode. He traces gambling with dice from the ancient use of astragali, the heel bones of hoofed quadrupeds, to their use in the casinos of Las Vegas. Along the way we discover numerous ways in which shaved, misspotted, and loaded dice were used by colorful and unscrupulous hustlers to gain advantage over their less enlightened brethren." Richard Jay Potash (June 26, 1946 November 24, 2018) was an American stage magician, actor, and writer. In a 1993 profile for The New Yorker, Mark Singer called Jay "perhaps the most gifted sleight of hand artist alive". In addition to sleight of hand, he was known for his card tricks, card throwing, memory feats, and stage patter. He also wrote extensively on magic and its history. His acting credits include The Prestige, The Spanish Prisoner, Mystery Men, Heist, Boogie Nights, Tomorrow Never Dies, Heartbreakers, State and Main, House of Games, Magnolia, and Deadwood. In 2015, he was the subject of an episode of PBS's American Masters, the only magician ever profiled in the series. Inscribed by Author(s).

Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Very Good. Hardcover. 4to. Published by Quantuck Lane Press, New York. 2002. #119 of a limited edition of 250 copies signed by the late great Ricky Jay, as well as photographer Rosamond Purcell. With an additional signed photographic print by Purcell, laid in, as called for. Slipcased in matching cloth slipcase. Slipcase lightly rubbed and worn. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and with color pastedown and titles present to the front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Plato said God invented dice. This we learn from one of Ricky Jay's fascinating essays in a delightful small volume that takes us from the earliest forms (astragalithe heel bones of hoofed quadrupeds, four of whose six sides were used for gaming) to the myriad types of "loading" and other means of cheating with dice in the modern era. Along the way we discover that Augustus, Caligula, and Nero were all inveterate players, that Queen Elizabeth issued a search and seizure order against the manufacture of false dice in 1598, and that dice made from celluloid, invented in 1869, remained stable for decades, and thenin a flashbegan to decompose. These are the dice of Rosamond Purcell's luminous and seductive photographs, images which transform entropy to an art form. Jay and Purcell give us a dual meditation on dice that will educate us and amuse us at the same time. ; 8 X 0.5 X 8.25 inches; 64 pages.
