Jan is actually a relatively new client of mine. (So I'm gonna bend my own rules and include her in my new friend project.) She works at a very large, very well-known publishing house. She is an editor. In fact, the way people treat her she might be THE editor. She is also a very free spirit, a marvelous conversationalist and might know more about the restaurant scene in New York than I do (yes friends, I am a formidable "eatertainer" but Jan has me beat.} Can't wait to introduce my 10 year old daughter to her as Lindsey has wanted blue hair for quite some time. I told her we would do it together. I may invite Jan along for the adventure.

It's been over a year since I decided to try my hand at publishing a book of dog photogrphy and dogversations. To say that I have learned a lot during this process would be an understatement. I also severely underestimated the time requirement to move this forward. That being said things have now progressed to the point of having completed the first round of layout revisions.
It is starting to take shape to the point that I now feel happy to share a screen shot of the interior. There will (likely) be 67 dogversations within the book, which have been collected from over 4 years of dog photography projects.
The yellow sticky notes on the text are there for editing purposes.

NY, (Universal Publishing), (1951). The scarce first edition of this now-classic work, which figured in American literary history as an example, in a Congressional subcommittee hearing in the early 1950s, of the negative impact of pornography, paperback literature, and comic books on American culture. Marijuana Girl was reprinted in 1960 and in several editions after that, becoming a cult classic. Its author, "N.R. De Mexico" remained unknown and was the subject of speculation for many years but was identified by folklorist and erotica historian Gershon Legman as Robert Campbell Bragg, a Greenwich Village bohemian and novelist, and one of the people who, along with Anais Nin and Henry Miller, wrote erotica for the collector Roy Milisander Johnso.
Robert Campbell Bragg (1918-1954), aka Bob De Mexico and N. R. De Mexico, holds a very special – if obscure – place in American letters. From the late 1930s through the early 1940s he wrote clandestine erotic manuscripts for a wealthy private collector in Oklahoma. A bohemian in the literary and art scene of Greenwich Village, he did so as one of Anais Nin‘s circle of friends enlisted by her to crank out erotica for this collector. Legman was the intermediary.
I’ve written about this collector and the writers who supplied him with erotic manuscripts elsewhere in a Part One and Part Two feature. I’m pleased to finally be able to report that the mystery of “Who is N.R. De Mexico” is solved, case closed.
The novel served as Exhibit A in Congressman Ezekiel C. Gathings's House Select Committee on the proliferation of literature he considered a pox on American society, refering to the novel as "A Manual of Instruction for Potential Narcotic Addicts.
got my sample blurb book in the mail today. the printing kind of kills all the blacks and shadow detail but other than that i'm impressed. a few tweaks and i'll print up a bulk order for sending to magazines, art directors, and if you're lucky, you!

History of The Curtis Center Building
During the early 20th century, the Curtis Building became one of the largest and most consequential publishers in America. The Curtis Center crosses South 6th and Walnut Street, in close proximity to Independence Hall. This beautiful building rich in history was designed by Edgar Viguers Seeler and takes up the entire block and goes through South 7th to the west and the north of Sansom street. In 1990, the building was renovated by John Milner Associates and Oldham and Seltz.
The Origins Of The Curtis Center
Known for the famous and authentic publications such as Country Gentlemen, American, Jack & Jill and Holiday, the Curtis Building was founded by the publisher Cyrus Curtis in 1891 in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. Curtis, who published the news magazine in Boston in 1872, The Peoples Ledger, then made his big move to Philadelphia in 1876. In 1879, he also established a publication called the Tribune and Farmer, where he created and his wife, Louisa Knapp, edited and worked together to manage the women’s section of Ladies Home Journal in 1889. Curtis then went on to invest in the Saturday Evening Post which would later become popular for its stories and illustrations by Norman Rockwell. In March of 1962, Robert A MacNeal, the publishing president, had announced that the Curtis Publishing company had lost money for the very first time in more than 70 years. In 1968, the company was then loaned $5 million from Perfect Film as per First National Bank of Boston, Curtis’ primary loan holder. After Curtis sold the Philadelphia headquarters to John W. Merriam for $7.3 million, he paid off most of the loan and then leased half of the building back again.
The Dream Garden Mosaic
The Curtis Center Building features a promenade with a waterfall and fountain on the interior of the building along with artificial Egyptian palm trees and the glass mosaic, known as The Dream Garden. This beautiful work of art was designed by Maxwell Parish and made by Louis Tiffany of Tiffany Studios and required 100,000 of favrile glass in 260 colors all set in place by hand. The Senior Editor, Edward Bok, of Tiffany Studios commissioned the work of art in the Tiffany Studio in New York City for a month before displaying it in the Curtis Center building. The Dream Garden mosaic was sold to Steve Wynn, a casino owner in Las Vegas in 1998. He soon planned to move the mosaic to his Las Vegas casino but because of strong connection and love that the historians and artists had for this piece, his plan to move the mosaic, failed. The people of the city raised $3.5 million dollars to prevent the removal. Pew Charitable Trust provided the funds to prevent him from moving the mosaic and it now belongs to the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts.
Curtis Center sold for $125M, with some luxury apartments planned
John Scalzi put together a bingo card of hackneyed arguments for electronic publishing. I figure it's only right to return the favor...
Two squares are the same on both cards. I thought it was worth stressing that both sides use them.
Lest anybody think I'm descending into satire with the Shakespeare square, it was in the New York Times. I admit that it's otherwise so obviously contrary to fact that I'd feel silly including it at all.
(For those who don't know me, I am a professional copyeditor, and I love my career. Almost all my work comes from traditional publishers. This is why I care about well-meaning but misguided arguments that damage my own industry.)

After publishing this photograph I realised that I had spelled Cannon as Canon
This old Russian gun was one of nearly 3,000 that were captured during the Crimean War. Most of them were reportedly from the siege of Sebastopol - due to public discontent with the management of the war it is suspected that these numbers were exaggerated in order to show why the siege took so long. In the Treaty of Paris, which ended the war, it was agreed that each of the victors would receive cannons from the Russians as trophies of their victory. Some of these Russian guns were put on display in towns throughout Britain and Ireland. In Ireland over 20 towns are believed to have applied for and received a Russian gun for display. You can see the double eagle and crown of the Romanov family crest on the cannon today.
Ah vanity. Yes, that is part of what led me to produce these self published little books. They are for my children only, and are not for sale anywhere. The cost of producing a photo book in small quantities of less than 10, without the economies of mass production, is equal to what one would pay for a hard cover at your favorite retail book store. But, the idea that they will live on after I am gone has made it worth the price to me.

L'apiculteur | Gleizé
A la suite de la récolte de miel (voir photo précédente), j'ai suivi Pierre-Claude, l'apiculteur, lors de l'extraction du précieux nectar. Ce fut l'occasion de le voir à l'œuvre et de goûter immédiatement la récolte. On s'est régalé !
Dans son atelier, à la lueur d'une fenêtre et d'un simple néon, j'ai réalisé - à la sauvette - ce portrait. Amoureux des abeilles, il transporte avec lui un brin de ciel bleu dans ses yeux...

Curtis Publishing likely employed higher-resolution plates for this promotional book, especially for photographs like “Welsh Miners,” which rely on tonal depth. The book used higher-grade paper than the weekly magazine, allowing for finer detail and better contrast in halftone images. They were meant to impress potential subscribers and agents. So the visuals—especially emotionally resonant ones like the miners—were printed with care to evoke dignity, grit, and realism.
The juxtaposition of youth and age, the lantern and the paper, the textured backdrop—it’s a quiet portrait of labor, legacy, and generational continuity. In the context of the Post’s editorial mission, it’s a visual essay in itself.
Historically, boys like the one in the image—often called “breaker boys”—started working as young as 8 or 9, picking slate from coal or hauling gear underground. The risks were staggering: Black lung disease, from constant coal dust inhalation. Crushed limbs or fatalities, due to cave-ins and machinery. Stunted growth and chronic pain, from long hours and poor nutrition. His youth is haunting. The lantern in his hand feels almost symbolic: not just a tool, but a fragile beacon against the darkness of the mines and the long, grinding years ahead.
But what makes the photo so resonant is its restraint. There’s no melodrama—just presence. The boy doesn’t plead, and the older man doesn’t protect. They simply stand together, framed by a window that seems like a threshold between worlds.
