An
important and fascinating bit of history, Diana Princess of Wales:
The Book of Fashion is full of color photographs of the princess,
Prince Charles, Queen Elizabeth, and the royal family and friends
by some of the world's most famous photographers. One of the more
interesting things about the book isn't even the myriad photographs
but rather "Diana's Fashion Diary" in the rear of the
book, a day by day account from February 25, 1981 through October
6, 1983 of what Diana did, where she went, and a description of
what she wore to each event. Each photograph also includes descriptive
text about the occasion being photographed and a fashion description
of Diana's outfit that designers and memorabilia collectors alike
will cherish. Published in 1983 by Colour Library Books Ltd. of
Surrey, England, it has accompanying text by Jane Owen and was produced
by Ted Smart and David Gibbon and measures approximately 11.75"
x 9.5". The book is retains its original paper cover and is
in excellent condition.

It's
a little tattered around the top and left edges, but this rare 1905
copy of Little Red Papoose is destined for a fine frame. From a
time when Native American culture was depicted in a different manner
than today, the cover art here signed Frew is a piece of history
with the ornamental papoose leaning against the tree with the river
and grove of trees in the background. The song is by Benjamin Hapgood
Burt and was from the Broadway production of The Girl and The Bandit
Co. and sung by George McFarlane. Originally costing 50 cents which
was a lot of money at the time, the piece measures approximately
14.0" x 11.0" and is in good condition with some edge
tears most severe on the left edge and top left corner and otherwise
looking pretty good for 100 years old.

Give
a gift to the one you love that will both surprise her and express
your love in a unique way with these two vintage sheet music love
songs "I Can Never Find Another Girl Like You" and "Close
To My Heart." The first has words by Arthur Richards and music
by Paul von Moltke, published in 1904 by Joseph Kaiser Music Publishing
of New York and measuring approximately 13.5" x 10.75".
This very early piece has several edge tears with 2 or 3 being greater
than 1.0", not really seen when mounted in a frame as this
piece is destined to be. Close To My Heart has words by Andrew Sterling
and music by the well known Harry von Tilzer who was also the publisher
of this 13.5" x 10.5" piece published in 1915. Close To
My Heart is in very good condition. Both were signed by the original
owner from whose estate they come.

Outstanding
graphics with vivid colors set this vintage 1912 sheet music When
I Get You Alone Tonight apart from the pack and ready for a frame.
The song, with words by Joe McCarthy and Joe Goodwin and music by
well known music publisher Fred Fischer, is a tale of love with
a whimsical twist that reflects the morales and tastes of the times.
We love the front cover colors of orange and blue, rather less seen
than other colors in turn of the century sheet music. The back cover
features another song excerpt, Don't Wear Your Heart On Your Sleeve,
which star Lottie Gilson said "is my greatest first-night ballad
success." The 14" x 11" sheet music was published
in 1912 by Leo Feist in New York and is in good condition aside
from some minor edge tears less than 0.5" and some minor spine
separation but still completely intact. This would be great as a
gift for a loved one presented in a nice frame, and it's bargain
priced from the NY estate of a musician who worked on the Broadway
stage. /16

Fun
and whimsical as a gift for your loved one, "Something Seems
To Tell Me I'm In Love With You" can really send a message!
The 13.5" x 10.5" piece was published by Jerome H. Remick

in this case of Maude Earl, on the cover. It's got a great stylized
look with the fruit tree silhouetted against the night sky, and
the photo contrasted with the caricature on the right. The piece
has words by Harry Williams and music by Egbert Van Alstyne, and
it's in very good condition with minor 0.75" spine separation

A
great gift for any sheet music collector or Rose in your life, "My
Beautiful Rose" was written by Jack Whitt with music by Jack
Smith. It's got a great color litho of a beautiful woman's face
emerging from a rose flower on the front cover, one of the most
clever and sentimental sheet music covers from this period we've
seen in several years. the inset photo is of "Mr. Chick"-
no, don't ask us as we don't have a clue. Published in 1912 by Joseph
M. Daly Music Publishers of Boston, MA, the 13.75" x 10.75"
piece is in very good condition with very minor spine separation

of the 20th century cover artist E. Peiffer of New York, part of
a major early 20th century sheet music collection exclusive to Collectics. /18

If
you're a cheese lover or know someone who is, you'll certainly enjoy
Fugue Au Pays De Gruyere with some wonderful illustrations and photographs
of the Gruyere countryside. The book is fascinating in that all
the text is in 3 languages- French, German, and English! It was
published in conjunction with Nestle, for in this country the young
Alexandre Cailler built his chocolate factory in 1898 where he found
a quality of milk which was ideal for making the best chocolate
and of course cheese. Included are histories of the region as well
as the art of making cheese, accompanied by insider photos of places,
lifestyle, and techniqes of making cheese that few have seen. The
book measures approximately 11.75" wide and 8.5" high, and it's

We
get lots of request for vintage airplane and aerospace books and
memorabilia, so we were quite happy when this book The Flier's World
by James Gilbert came to us as part of a major Los Angeles, CA estate
consignment. Filled with information as well as color and black
& white photographs, any airplane afficianado or collector is
going to love this very hard to find 1976 first edition. The book
covers the history of aviation including private aviation, military
aviation, and commercial aviation. We particularly enjoyed the vintage
photographs of planes like the Concorde supersonic jet, a Pan Am
Boeing 747, and the many military jets and private planes and gliders
that fill the book. Author James Gilbert has flown more than 100
kinds of aircraft and is well known for books and articles on flying
in the U.S. and Europe. Feature sections include First Solo, Beginnings,
How a Plane Flies, Air Space, Aerobatics, Destinations, On Silent
Wings, Racing, Home Built Airplanes, Multi-engine Airplanes, Air
Force Jets, and This is Your Captain which details operations on
the flight deck of a 747. A Ridge Press Book published by Grosset
& Dunlap, the 11.0" x 8.75" 252 page book is in excellent
condition and includes the original paper cover- great as a gift!
