Crane (Hart) The Bridge. A Poem, first edition, one of 25 review hors commerce copies from an edition limited to 283, printed in red and black, 3 fine photogravures by Walker Evans, original printed wrappers, some light wear to spine ends, very slight discolouration to spine, glacine dust-jacket, a crisp and fine example, with the original silver card chemise (extremities a little worn, ties renewed), housed in custom morocco-backed drop-back box with morocco label to upper cover, [Connolly 64], 4to, Paris, The Black Sun Press, 1930.⁂ First edition of Hart Crane's modernist epic poem, we can trace no other hors commerce copies at auction in the last 20 years. The poem is accompanied by Walker Evans' iconic photographs which are among the earliest published examples of his work. The poet and photographer met in the shadow of Brooklyn Bridge.The Black Sun Press issued a note with hors commerce copies (although not present here) stating "[We] regret that due to a defective impression and quality of paper these advance copies of 'The Bridge,' hors commerce, are considered typographically imperfect. A re-impression on velin Van Gelder of the numbered copies will appear for sale March 1st at the Bookshop of Harry F. Marks, New York..." This would indicate that hors commerce copies along with those on Japan vellum arguably constitute a first impression before the type was reset for the run on Van Gelder.

Lot 62
Arabic manuscript.- Qu'ran Scroll, purported to have once been displayed above Shah Jahan's Peacock Throne in the Diwan-i-Khas in the Red Fort of Delhi, decorated manuscript on paper, single scroll formed of over 20 paper membranes, entire scroll mounted on fine polished paper forming wider margins around the textual scroll, comprising text from Surah al-Baqarah to al-Nas, being a near-complete Qur'an lacking only the first section of the first membrane (probably removed for the illumination of the opening section: see below), consecutive lines in fine black naskh, surah headings in red, some small sections of text rubbed and a few scattered spots, outer edges of scroll with some light water-staining, in early twentieth-century custom silver chest, inscribed "la Ilaha Ill'Allah Muhammad'ur Aasul'ullah", this contained in another custom-made green morocco box lined with green silk, and these both placed inside a leather travel case fitted with a magnifying glass holder, typed letter from "E.C. Gould" loosely inserted containing provenance and physical description of contents, total length 16,100 mm. (16.1 meters) by 75 mm., probably Delhi], [first quarter 17th century].⁂ An extraordinary manuscript with an apparently distinguished provenance. The typed letter included indicates that the scroll is of extreme cultural and historical significance, as it once "adorned the throne room of the great Moghul Emperor Shahejahan where it had a place of reverence right above the Peacock Throne". The writer then explains that after the Emperor's death a scuffle took place among his attendants over the ruler's most treasured posessions, this being a prominent feature, which resulted in the first two "siparahs" being separated from the rest of the scroll.
