NY, Viking Press, 1st, 1976, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover with a bright, unclipped dust jacket. Color and black & white illustrations by Kate Greenaway. Clean copy. A new era in the history of children's books began in 1878 when Kate Greenaway's first book of pictures and verse, Under the Window, was published. This was followed by her Birthday Book, A Day in a Child's Life, Mother Goose, Little Ann, Language of Flowers, and Marigold Garden. These and the many other enchanting volumes she illustrated, gained her a devoted worldwide audience of all ages. Today's great revival of interest in Kate Greenaway's work is understandable; as an illustrator of childhood she had no equal in her day, nor has she had since. The Kate Greenaway Book contains a short biography and selections from her best-known as well as little-known works: a collection of texts and pictures, some never even published before, charmingly arranged for readers of all ages to enjoy.

Hardcover. NY, Rizzoli, 1st, 2008, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Illustrated boards, 528 pages. Closely based on Haring's own concept for the monograph he wanted to publish before his untimely death, this volume represents more than a decade of research and contains a wealth of unpublished photographic and written material including drawings, studio photographs, and journal entries. From chalk drawings deep in the New York City subways to murals in Pisa and Berlin; collaborations with William Burroughs and the famous body painting of Grace Jones, this book follows the incredible trajectory of Keith Haring's artistic career: how a young man from a small town in rural Pennsylvania came to revolutionize the art world--and the course of art history--within little more than a decade. An incredibly prolific artist, Keith Haring created countless bold, provocative, endearing, and unforgettable images that continue to inspire artists--and delight children--worldwide. Tracing the arc from his early subway "tags" to his poignant work on social issues as diverse as AIDS, illiteracy and apartheid, this visually stunning book is the definitive work on Keith Haring.
