Though Ayn Rand is primarily known for her ground-breaking novel "Atlas Shrugged", this was her first book. Published in 1943 and initially rejected by 12 publisher's as "too intellectual" , this novel about the rights of the individual became a bestseller in 2 years strictly by word of mouth and earned Ayn Rand enduring commercial and artistic success. This is not a first edition but is a very early printing. I would describe this as an acceptable reading copy - dust jacket is complete, but with some clear tape and wear. Book cover/spine has some issues, but is still holding together. Inside is clean and unmarked. Nonsmoking home. 754 pages. 315 / 809 sold -

From the prolific Salvador Dali (1904-1989) - two wood block prints from his Divine Comedy (a journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven) set of over 100 prints (1960's). The one on the left is number 44/150, pencil signed (note: many of these Dali prints have spurious signatures, so we are making no guarantee - check out the many articles about this issue online) is entitle "La Seconde Cornice" (plate 13 from the series) - the one on the right is not numbered or signed, but if from the same series, entitled "Les Heretiques" (plate No. 10 from the series). Both measures 17" x 21". Two other woodblocks from this series are in an earlier lot. 353 / 809 sold -
