SEX PISTOLS.; Johnny Rotten. Sid Vicious. Steve Jones. Signed Original Band rider contracts, Sex Pistols American Tour, 1978.
Glitterbest, Inc.,1978
Three A4 sized rider contracts between Stone City Attractions and Malcolm McLaren's management company, Glitterbest, and signed by three of the individual members of the Sex Pistols. All are dated January 4th1978. The band members have each signed one of the contracts in black ball point pen. Johnny Rotten has signed using his real name, John Lydon. Sid Vicious has also signed using his real name, John Beverly. The third signed by Steve Jones. The contracts relate toamong other things; backstage security, approval of support artists, band's exit from the stage must be concealed from the view of the audience, sound and light check specifications and request for cold beer, a platter of meat, cheese & fruit, fruit juices and towels for the stage. ---- The Sex pistols Ill-fated final tour was due to start in the North of the U.S in late december 1977 but due to problems getting work permits and visa's, because of some band members criminal records, the first dates were cancelled and in the end the band only played 7 dates of the tour, starting on January 5th. --- Stone City Attractions were promotors for two of the venues that were played, Both in Texas; Randy's Rodeo in San Antonio, which the band played on 8th January 1978, & Longhorn Ballroom, Dallas, played on January 10th. These contracts are for either, or possibly both, of those dates. The tour famously finished in San Francisco on January 14th, with the band playing a cover of The Stooges "No Fun" as encore and Lydon sneering "Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?. Good Night" before leaving the stage. The band split up three days later. :

SHACKLETON. SIR ERNEST.; . SOUTH. The story of Shackleton's last expedition 1914-1917.
William Heinemann. London.,1919
FIRST EDITION. Large 8vo. (10.1 x 6.5 inches). Illustrated with colour photo frontis, five maps-including one large folding, and 87 mono photographic plates. Generally a very good copy but one of the plates has pink paint to the top margin that just encrouches onto the edge of the image, some of the pink has transfered to the top of the text page opposite. There are three other paint marks on text pages, one is just a couple of small light blue brush marks over opposite pages, another is bigger blue brush marks over opposite pages and the third is a couple of small yellow and pink brush strokes to the margin of another pair of leaves. (Please ask for photographs of the affected areas). Aside from these four areas with paint marks the pages are in slightly better condition than usually found with this edition. This first impression was printed on poor quality paper and is prone to browning but, on the whole, this copy is in better condition than usually encountered although the page edges do inevitably still show some level of darkening. Original publishers dark blue cloth with silver illustration of The Endurance to front board. Spine and front board lettered in silver. Publishers blind stamped device to back board. Minor rubbing to the extremities and very small split(about 0.3 inch), without loss, to the top front hinge. Apart from the paint marks listed this is overall a very good, tight and bright copy of this classic book.:
