Abstract

"The Lady or The Tiger Story Performed by Dr. Robert F. Panara 1985 SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE [summarized by Joan Naturale] This story, The Lady or The Tiger, by Frank Stockton is performed in sign language by Dr. Panara. The story is about a king who set up a system to determine whether a prisoner was guilty or not guilty of a crime. The public was invited to the arena where the king sat on a throne. In front of the throne were two doors. Behind one door was a ferocious tiger, and behind the other, a beautiful lady. The prisoner had to choose a door, and if he chose the tiger, he was mauled to death and determined to be guilty. If he chose the lady, the King would host a wedding feast, as the prisoner was determined to be innocent. The King had a beautiful daughter, a Princess, who fell in love with a handsome man from the lower class. They had a secret relationship for several months until the King found out about it and became angry. He arrested his daughter’s boyfriend and he appeared in the arena to choose a door. The Princess found out what was behind the doors and would give a clue to her boyfriend. The beautiful lady behind the door once showed an interest in the boyfriend. The Princess sat next to her father and moved her hand to the right to indicate the right door to choose for him. What was behind the door? Did the Princess choose the tiger, a quick but brutal and bloody death, or the lady, whom he would marry?"

22. The watchmaker's wife, and other stories / by Frank R. Stockton

Author

Armstrong, Margaret, 1867-1944, binding designer. ;Charles Scribner's Sons, publisher., Stockton, Frank R, 1834-1902, Armstrong, Margaret, 1867-1944, binding designer. ;Charles Scribner's Sons, publisher., and Stockton, Frank R, 1834-1902

Abstract

"An early unsigned Margaret Armstrong binding design in red on smooth golden brown cloth of a square central field of 23 transport balloons arranged in alternating rows of five and four with the words of the title spaced on each side of the field. Spine with titles in gold. A collection of offbeat short stories for adults. The title story is of a yacht that is run aground when a hanging rope of a passing transport balloon gets wrapped around the yacht's mast, pulling it off course and onto a deserted island. When the occupants of the yacht are able to land the occupants of the balloon, they find a watchmaker and the watchmaker's wife. An early and relatively unknown binding design by Armstrong that incorporates a repeated motif of the title story's primary plot device. Contemporary advertising1 indicates that the present book "Can be had uniform with the author's other volumes and also in 'unique' binding with cover design in red of ascending balloons." Gullans and Espey indicated that the majority of copies are found in the uniform binding (an undecorated dark green cloth), which is still the case today." -- Austin Abbey Rare Books; Cloth binding designed by Margaret Armstrong.

Abstract

"Signed binding design by Margaret Armstrong of titles surrounded by intertwined clover leaves and flowers in gold and black on green linen cloth. Spine with titles in gold and the clover flower motif from the cover design in black. A humorous account of a duel between two strong-minded women: Miss Panney, a rich and feisty spinster, and Jane La Fleur, the perfect chef, who Miss Panney recommends to her friend, Mrs. Tolbridge. Miss Panney and Jane la Fleur have each planned a match for the Ralph Haverley, a new farmer in the neighborhood who has inherited a country home called Cobhurst. The binding design Miss Armstrong uses in this instance is an extremely subtle reference to the text on page 88. Here, Miss Panney is made aware that Jane La Fleur, her future nemesis, has moved into town, when she takes a portion from Jane's perfectly cooked plate of "sweetbread, tastefully garnished with clover blossoms and leaves". The design was later adapted for The Van Dyke Book (1914) and The Eugene Field Book (1914)." -- Austin Abbey Rare Books;Cloth binding signed by the designer: M.A. [i.e. Margaret Armstrong]
