Cover is glazed boards. DJ is as new; still in publisher's shrinkwrap. Black endpapers. Originally published in German, translated by Desiree Gerber. Pages are clean and tight; this is a NEW book. Extensively illustrated with color photos and drawings. Chapters are: Dentistry for Horses; Horse's Teeth; Construction and Function of the Teeth and Their Surroundings; Diseases of the Teeth and Mouth; Examination of the Teeth and Mouth--When, How and Why? ; Case Studies; Key Words for the Diagnosis of Mouth and Teeth Problems. Equine dentistry is frequently under valued in diagnosis and treatment. A horse w/ severe enough dental problems can end up having difficulties bending, collecting, jumping, etc. ; we look for the problems anywhere but in the mouth. Having knowledge of when and how to check your horse's teeth [which grow throughout their lifetimes, unlike humans], can be a valuable aid in finding and fixing problems. When my horse gets a hook or uneven in his teeth he is less likely to come round and through and move as smoothly as normal; having his teeth taken care fixes this problem, almost like magic! And since horses' physiologies are designed to be constantly eating, whether it's the grain humans provide, or the roughage we give them or they find outside or in the wild, it becomes even more readily apparent how important to their overall health well maintained and cared for teeth become. ; Color Illustrations; 6 3/4 x 9 3/4; 126 pages

Kreling, Dr. Kai Horses' Teeth And Their Problems Prevention, Recognition, Treatment
Luneburg, Germany Cadmos Verlag 2003 3861279061 First English Edition Hardcover New in New dust jacket
Cover is glazed boards. DJ is as new; still in publisher's shrinkwrap. Black endpapers. Originally published in German, translated by Desiree Gerber. Pages are clean and tight; this is a NEW book. Extensively illustrated with color photos and drawings. Chapters are: Dentistry for Horses; Horse's Teeth; Construction and Function of the Teeth and Their Surroundings; Diseases of the Teeth and Mouth; Examination of the Teeth and Mouth--When, How and Why? ; Case Studies; Key Words for the Diagnosis of Mouth and Teeth Problems. Equine dentistry is frequently under valued in diagnosis and treatment. A horse w/ severe enough dental problems can end up having difficulties bending, collecting, jumping, etc. ; we look for the problems anywhere but in the mouth. Having knowledge of when and how to check your horse's teeth [which grow throughout their lifetimes, unlike humans], can be a valuable aid in finding and fixing problems. When my horse gets a hook or uneven in his teeth he is less likely to come round and through and move as smoothly as normal; having his teeth taken care fixes this problem, almost like magic! And since horses' physiologies are designed to be constantly eating, whether it's the grain humans provide, or the roughage we give them or they find outside or in the wild, it becomes even more readily apparent how important to their overall health well maintained and cared for teeth become. ; Color Illustrations; 6 3/4 x 9 3/4; 126 pages

Lackner, Stephan Max Beckmann
New York Crown Publishers 1983 0517550008 Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket Illustrated by Max Beckmann
Cover is white with red lettering on front and spine. Pages are clean and tight. Lavishly illustrated with 47 color and 24 b/w pictures by Beckmann. Beckmann wa born in Leipzig, Germany in 1884 and died in New York City in 1950.

He witnessed both World Wars, and his paintings reflect this, both as a victim and as a witness; during WWI he volunteered as a medical orderly, seeing the bloody horrors of war at first hand. Lackner, a friend and patron of Beckmann's, chose these 71 works from 835 oil paintings, drawings, prints and watercolors, to chronicle and represent Beckmann's life, from his early days, through the ever changing path of his life, up until his death in the US in the mid-20th century. Oversized. ; Crown Art Library Series; Color and B/W Illustrations; 8 1/4 x 11; 95+ pages; Cover has some light bumping and rubbing.

Lawson, James Van Dyck Paintings and Drawings
New York Prestel Verlag 1999 3791320904 First Edition Thus Hardcover Fine in Near Fine dust jacket
Cover is black with wilver lettering on spine. Pages are clean and tight. This is a NEW book. This is the English language version [originally published in German]. Lavishly illustrated with dozens of color and b/w photos. Anthony van Dyck, knighted by King Charles I of England, was a masterly artist, who learned well from his master, Peter Paul Reubens, at his studio in Antwerp. He painted many works, both protraits and more epic pictures, but it was as the court painter to Charles I that he really gained his claim to fame. He has brought that court and time to life in a way rarely seen under the hand of one artist [he follows in the footsteps of Hans Holbein the Younger at the court of Henry VIII]. This book was done in celebration of the 400th birth of van Dyck, featuring an amazing exhibition first in Antwerp and then in London. While this book cannot claim to duplicate the experience of seeing those works hung room after room, immersing you in the world that van Dyck saw and painted, it comes close. The works examined here are his paintings, sketches, engravings and watercolors. From the formal court portraits to the delightful self-portrait on the cover of the DJ. Also includes my two personal favorites: "Triple Portrait of Charles I" 1635, which was done as a study for a bust commissioned to Bernini; and : The Five Eldest Children of Charles I" 1637, one of the most enchanting family groups ever portrayed. There are multiple copies of this title availbable; the others are not sealed in plastic but have the DJ in a Brodart cover. Wonderful book, I love my copy of this title. Oversized; 3.5#. ; Photographs; 9 1/2 x 11 3/4; 143 pages; Cover has some light bumping. DJ has some edge wear and bumping; in a mylar cover.

NEW. #303 of 500 copies. In publisher's shrinkwrap, which was unsealed only to check copy number. Slipcase is cardboard, covered with yellow cloth on top and bottom, black cloth around the main body of the case. Front and pack has a paste down with the title, author and The Monacelli Press Fondation [sic] L. C. Originally published in Milan, Italy in 1994, in Italian. The original four Carnets [notebooks] are written in French, with mostly b/w, a few in color, drawings, sketches, notes, which are pencil like in appearance. Some of the pages are numbered, others are not. This set presents four meticulously reproduced travel notebooks of Charles-Edouard Jeanneret Le Corbusier on his travels through Germany, which came at the end of his tour of the Orient. In pocket-sized journals, he noted what he saw, sketched ideas and places, and offered thoughtful commentary on his experiences, which took place 1910-1911. A fifth 160-page volume provides a concise overview of his journey in English, and a reprinting (in French) of his written entries. Le Corbusier was born in France on October 6, 1887; died in France, on August 27, 1965. He had a long and successful career, helping to create revolutions in architecture during the middle part of the 20th century. Many of these are still strongly influential to the current day. On the back page of the fifth volume [titled 'Transcriptions'] it states this is a limited edition of 500; this set is stamped #303.; B & W illustrations; 4 x 6 1/2 x 1 3/4; 300+ pages; Slight rubbing/bumping to slipcase, faint 1/2" blue mark on label.
