Three exciting new acquisitions in Special Collections:<\/p>\n

\"stencil\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For our history of the book collection, an example of an unusual printing method for music (or anything): stenciling. Description from Les Enluminures<\/a>: Antiphonal for the Day Offices, Diurnale Carmelitarum in quo continentur omnia quae cantantur in choro per annum<\/i> [Carmelite Diurnal Containing Everything Sung in Choir throughout the Year]. In Latin, stenciled manuscript on parchment with musical notation. France, Paris, eighteenth century, ca. 1700-40 (?) (after 1689).<\/p>\n

Jumping ahead about three hundred years, we have a diorama-style artists’ book, Bryan Kring’s Sea Monster<\/em>. From the Abecedarian Gallery<\/a> description: “When the brass ring is pulled, the waves move, the sailboat rocks, and the arm of the monster rises threateningly.” Yes, it does, and it’s wonderful.<\/p>\n

\"Bryan<\/a><\/p>\n

Last and perhaps least, Harry Potter and Leopard Walk Up to Dragon<\/em>, an unauthorized Harry Potter book in Chinese, with illustrations stolen from Disney and other sources. This will be a useful book for Harry Potter fans and anyone interested in copyright and intellectual property. See this article<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n
