Regarding his return to Princeton and the publication of The Adventures of Augie March: “The Book has made a splash. I can’t say I’m not pleased, but oddly enough, I have no great personal sense of triumph. My own connection with Augie ended when I was done with the proofs, and now I’m rather in the audience myself, watching.” - Typed letter signed (“Saul”), Tivoli, NY, 5 April 1962. 1 page, 12mo. Regarding the writing of Herzog, and scheduling an upcoming visit: “I’m in the process of winding up Herzog and in all matters requiring arrangement I’m still as wooly as ever.” - Typed letter signed (“Saul”), The University of Chicago, 18 February 1962. Regarding the conclusion of his term teaching at the University of Chicago and scheduling a visit: “I’ve had a rough quarter at Chicago. Snow has fallen without a stop since December and my mouth has not been shut since Christmas.” - Autograph letter signed (“Saul”), n.d. [Aug. 14]. 2 pages, 4to. Regarding scheduling a visit. - Typed letter signed (“Saul”), Sutclife Star Route, Reno, Nevada, n.d. 1 page, 4to. Regarding Arrowsmith’s translation of The Herakles of Euripides, about which, Bellow claims, “I was knocked over by it,” and The Adventures of Augie March: “I won’t feign modesty when Augie is praised. It does me good. But I am like the bitch who forgets the old litter in the new.”

Bellow and William Arrowsmith became acquainted in Princeton in the early 1950s. “Working as Delmore Schwartz’s assistant, Bellow attended parties where he met John Berryman, Ralph Ellison, Edmund Wilson, and Theodore Roethke. Among the guests was [classics scholar] William Arrowsmith” (Mark Connelly, Saul Bellow: A Literary Companion, p.108).

THE VLADIMIR NABOKOV COLLECTION OF J. RIGBIE TURNER | LOTS 169–196

Photo credit: Don Hogan Charles/The New York Times/Redux

James Rigbie Turner, known to his family and friends as Rigbie or Rig, was the long-serving Curator of Musical Manuscripts at the Morgan Library. He authored two works in his ield: Nineteenth-Century Autograph Music Manuscripts in the Pierpont Morgan Library, and Four Centuries of Opera: Manuscripts and Printed Editions in the Pierpont Morgan Library. Though he was in charge of one of the world’s foremost music manuscript collections professionally, he was also a collector personally, and throughout his life, he assembled a vast and extensive Vladimir Nabokov collection. Rigbie was a completist in his collecting: the scope of his collection includes not only irst and rare printings of Nabokov’s works, but also translations of his iction, as well as periodicals and journal contributions. Nabokov’s bibliographer, Michael Juliar, recalls Rigbie: “I remember physical books: the ones raking across rows in his apartment. I remember it being in the Village with a great grand piano comfortably settled in to the main room. He had a calm, easy-going manner and I would never have taken him for the curator of one of the great music manuscript collections in the world. Nabokov said he had no ear for music. Obviously he had an ear for words. And Rigbie had an ear for Nabokov.”

Although I had been scribbling in English all my literary life in the margin, so to say, of my Russian writings, this was my irst serious attempt…to use English for what may be loosely termed an artistic purpose…the book sold badly, and a few years later a German bomb destroyed the entire stock” (quoted in Juliar).

[NEWSPAPERS]. The Chicago Times. Chicago: June 20, 1861-July 31, 1866. Approximately AN EXTENSIVE RUN OF THIS CHICAGO NEWSPAPER, INCLUDING CONTEMPORARY COVERAGE OF THE CIVIL WAR: A SCARCE PRE-FIRE PUBLICATION COMPRISING OVER 770 ISSUES, numbering: Vols. VII-VIII, 1861, 144 issues; Vols. VIII-IX, 1863, 247 issues; Vols. IX-X, 1864, 154 issues; and Vols. XII-XIII, 1866, 226 issues. (Some browning, spotting, or staining, some issues with contemporary signatures in margins, a few with tears and chipping with occasional losses, not a complete run, complete list of issues available on request.) The Chicago Times, founded in 1854 by James W. Sheahan with the backing of Stephen Douglas, was purchased by Democratic journalist Wilbur F. Storey in 1861. Under Storey’s editorship, the newspaper upheld a Copperhead point of view, openly supporting Southern Democrats and opposing Abraham Lincoln. The issues here present a comprehensive contemporary viewpoint of the Civil War and the years immediately after. Notable coverage includes contemporary accounts of the Battle of Gettysburg as well as coverage of the Democratic National Convention, held in Chicago in 1864. The issues also include an intriguing contemporary account of the General Burnside’s suppression of the Chicago Times, on 3 June 1863. The Times circulation had boomed among Democrats, and was the oicial mouthpiece of Chicago’s Democratic mayor, Francis C. Sherman, but opinion was polarized: the paper was banned from the reading room at the Chicago Board of Trade, and the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad refused to sell it. Burnside ordered that publication stop, after he determined that the paper was printing articles and opinions he thought to be disloyal to the government. Ultimately, Lincoln revoked the suspension. The issues also include local coverage from this time period, including ward maps of the city of Chicago, a map of the route of the Illinois and Michigan Canal, and diagrams illustrating plans to build tunnels and water cribs to provide clean water to the city. $1,000-2,000

Given pursuant to the Constitution of government of the Commonwealth aforesaid at the Council Chamber in Boston the fourteenth day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and eighty one, and in the ifth year of the independence of the United States of America.” In 1779, the Massachusetts General Court organized the election of 312 delegates from towns across the state to participate in a convention to draft a state constitution. The convention sat from September 1 through October 30. John Adams drafted the constitution and declaration of rights, which was presented to eligible voters for ratiication in 1780; it was ratiied on June 15, 1780, and went into efect on October 25, 1780, and still functions today. The structure of the document served as the model for the U.S. Constitution. The declaration of rights read in part: “All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights; among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in ine, that of seeking and obtaining their safety and happiness.” It efectively abolished slavery in Massachusetts. Samuel Holten, a physician, dedicated his life to public service. He served as a member of the Massachusetts Provincial Congress from 1774-1775, and the Massachusetts Committee of Safety in 1775. He served in the Continental Congress from 1778 to 1780.

Small 4to (245 x 190 mm). 64-pages in two hands, a note inside the front cover listing the ships of the squadron and the name of the Princess Royal’s 1st Lieutenant, J. Kendall, vellum boards. [Bound With:] Reversed at the end of the volume is the log book of the H.M.S. Rainbow, commanded by Captain Kendall from 1 April 1780-16 July, 1781, of New York, 120 pages; [Laid in:] Oculist’s bill, early 19th century; [With:] Log of H.M.S. Sphinx, also under Captain Kendall, 15 February-27 March 1779, of Sandy Hook, 41 pages, small 4to. The Princess Royal was dispatched to intercept Count d’Estaing, who had sailed from Touloun in April; they missed the Count by nearly two weeks, owing to vessels which were poorly equipped. “The delays consequent upon mal-administration prevented Byron sailing until 9 June, and even then his ships were wretchedly equipped and badly manned. The rigging was of second-hand or even twice-laid rope, and the ships’ companies were largely made up of draughts from the gaols. Under these circumstances it is not surprising that the irst bad weather should have scattered the ships and dismasted several, that gaol fever and scurvy should have raged among the crews, and the components of the squadron should have singly reached the American coast in such a state that they must have fallen an easy prey to an enterprising enemy. Fortunately d’Estaing retired from before Sandy Hook just in time to leave the passage open to the irst of Byron’s ships” (DNB). $400-600
