This catalog contains 11 items related to William Hone (1780-1842), the English writer, satirist, and bookseller. Hone was a rabble-rousing journalist during the Regency period, when he satirized the Crown, and was drug into court for his troubles. In the end, Hone won the lawsuits brought by the Crown, and he thus became known as a defender of the freedom of the press. Includes 9 items printed by or for Hone, 2 items he edited, and a late nineteen-century biography of William Hone.

Fugitive Materials is proud to present our third catalog, Revolutions in Queer Consciousness. This catalog gathers fliers, handbills, and original manuscripts tracing the intersections of early queer activism and performance in New York’s underground through the 1970s and ‘80s and into the 1990s, with special attention to Black and Latine trans artists such as Marsha P. Johnson, Sir Lady Java, Alexis del Lago, Sister Tui, Vaginal Davis, and Willhelmina Ross (item nos. 1, 7, 8, 25, 26, 41), and to the early activism, publishing, and performance of Queens Liberation Front founders Lee Brewster and Inez Eisenhower (item nos. 3-5, 31-32, 35-41). The catalog records ephemera from the Hot Peaches, Ridiculous Theatrical Company, Jack Smith, ACT UP, and more.

We’ve just listed first American editions of this lovely Jessie King illustrated House of Pomegranates and Arthur Rackham’s illustrated Little Brother and Little Sister by Grimm. There are also books illustrated by Cecil Aldin, Jo Mora, Charles Folkard, Tenggren, Russell Flint, and Willy Pogany plus some excellent reference works on illustrators and the book arts.

We’ve got Dave Stevens, Betty Page, Richard Powers, and Marvel Masterworks and a limited edition of Nettle & Bone. There’s also quite a selection of Robert E. Howard’s story collections (western, boxing, and of course Conan) this time. Book that have sold will no longer appear on the site.

Folk and fairy tales lead the children’s list. Quite a few fantasy artists have had a thriving sideline in children’s books — Gary Kelley, Wayne Anderson and Omar Rayyan are all represented this time around. Sold items are promptly removed from the website.
