£235.00 £185.00

clean copy of the  1st edition US edition Published by Boston: Small, Maynard & Company, 1913

Red boards , opposed to the British edition which had black. Condition : no previous owner’s markings , surprisingly bright and clean copy with  no foxing etc.

Hopefully Fuller needs little  introduction; a visionary American dancer and choreographer who relocated to Paris and startled audiences with her productions . The secrets behind her light shows and stage effects are  still not fully understood. She patented stage effect such as colour wheels and other machinery – the secrets of which still aren’t  understood.  Early  psychedelic mise-en-scène staging ? 🙂  The Lumière brothers hand  coloured every frame of their films of her to try and recapture the effect ….
