Abstract The Gotham Book Mart (1920-2006) was one of New York City’s most iconic bookstores during the 20th century. Founded by Frances Steloff (1887-1989), the daughter of poor Russian-Jewish immigrants, the Book Mart became a social center for the New York literati and a focal point for literary modernism in the United States. Steloff’s successor, independent literary manuscript dealer Andreas Brown (1933-), maintained the store’s focus on avant garde and small press publications while incorporating his own interests in postcards and genealogy. This collection contains 91 boxes of material relating to the daily operation of the Book Mart; correspondence, biographical, and legal material from both Brown and Steloff; postcard and genealogical material collected by Brown; - Page 3 - Gotham Book Mart records photographs of the store, its employees, and events which took place there; and manuscripts and ephemera offered for sale. Cite as: Gotham Book Mart records, 1723-2006 (bulk: 1967-2006), Ms. Coll. 1025, Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts, University of Pennsylvania Biography/History Founded in 1920 by Frances Steloff, The Gotham Book Mart served as a center for the literary avant garde of New York City and a gateway through which European modernism entered the United States. During its nearly ninety-year tenure as a marketplace for books and ideas, the Gotham was notorious for selling books which were officially banned in the U.S., including Lady Chatterley’s Lover and Tropic of Cancer. In addition, the shop served as an unofficial literary salon, attracting luminaries such as Christopher Morley, Henry Miller, W.H. Auden , Marianne Moore, Tennessee Williams, John Updike, and Allen Ginsberg (who briefly worked in the store as a clerk). It also served as the home of the James Joyce Society, founded at the Book Mart in 1947. In 1967, Stelof sold the store to Andreas Brown, who continued its literary mission while incorporating his own collecting interests, such as a postcards and antique Christmas ornaments. For most of its life, the Book Mart was located in a building at 41 W. 47th Street, in Manhattan’s Diamond District. After a series of legal battles regarding loans undertaken to buy the building, Brown was forced to sell the original location and lease a building at 16 E. 46th St. After falling behind on the rent at this new location, Brown was evicted, and the inventory was sold by auction. Biography/History Frances Steloff was the founder of the Gotham Book Mart and a tireless advocate for avant garde literature. Born in poverty to Russian-Jewish immigrants in Saratoga Springs, NY in 1887, at thirteen she was orphaned and forced to leave school. Adopted by an elderly Boston couple, her life did not improve, and at the age of nineteen she left Boston for New York City, where she worked in the book departments of various department stores before opening the Gotham in 1920. She was one of the founders of the James Joyce Society, and her list of friends comprised a large majority of the American literati of the - Page 4 - Gotham Book Mart records 20th century. She was also deeply interested in non-Western spiritual practices, including the work of J. Krishnamurti. After selling the Book Mart to Andreas Brown in 1967, Steloff continued to live in an apartment on the third floor, and to work intermittently in the shop itself. She died in 1989 at the age of 101. Biography/History Andreas Brown is a rare-book dealer, literary appraiser, and omnivorous collector of Americana who owned and operated the Gotham Book Mart from 1967 to its dissolution in 2007. Born in Coronado, CA, Brown graduated from San Diego State University and attended Stanford Law School before working at the Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas and beginning an independent career as a rare book dealer. During trips to New York City, Brown became acquainted with Frances Steloff, and in 1967 he bought the Gotham Book Mart, with the understanding that Steloff would continue to be active in its operation. During his stewardship of the Book Mart, Brown became one of the most prominent American collectors of vintage postcards, curated an annual exhibition of antique Christmas ornaments, and was instrumental in promoting the career of writer/illustrator Edward Gorey. He also undertook extensive research into the genealogy of his and Frances Steloff’s families. However, numerous legal battles, both with fellow booksellers over delinquent payments and with wealthy benefactors over loans accrued to buy the building which housed the Gotham, contributed to the Book Mart’s worsening financial situation and eventual closure. Scope and Contents This collection contains store records, correspondence, manuscripts, and ephemera from the Gotham Book Mart, one of New York City’s most iconic bookstores and a hotbed of 20th century literary modernism and American little magazine and small press publishing. It includes records of the day-to- day activity of bookselling during the ownership of Frances Steloff and her successor Andreas Brown, as well as manuscripts and ephemera which the store offered for sale, broadsides, scrapbooks, and vintage photographs. In addition, the collection contains material from Brown’s personal collections, including literary appraisals, postcards, and genealogical research.

  • 'A True Magic Chamber': the Public Face of the Modernist Bookshop
    ‘A True Magic Chamber’: The Public Face of the Modernist Bookshop Andrew Thacker Modernist Cultures 11.3 (2016): 429–451 DOI: 10.3366/mod.2016.0149 © Edinburgh University Press www.euppublishing.com/loi/mod Abstract This article explores the role of bookshops in the construction of a public for modernism and analyses a number of bookshops committed to promoting modernist culture, such as those run by Sylvia Beach (Shakespeare and Company), Adrienne Monnier (La Maison des Amis des Livres), and Frances Steloff (Gotham Book Mart). It also considers how the bookshop is a fulcrum between commerce and culture, a key issue for contemporary modernist studies, and discusses aspects of bookshop culture that seem to operate ‘beyond’ the market. One example is that of We Moderns, a catalogue issued by the Gotham Book Mart in 1940 and which represents a fascinating example of the print culture of the modernist bookshop. Drawing upon the work of Mark Morrisson and Lawrence Rainey, the article also evaluates the position of the bookshop within debates around modernism and the public sphere. The Business of the Magic Chamber A member of the public strolling through Paris in the early 1920s who drifts onto the Left Bank in search of culture, might find themselves in the triangle of small streets between the grander avenues of Boulevard St. Michel and the Boulevard St. Germain in the 6th Arrondissement. These are the streets around the Sorbonne and, as such, there are many bookshops servicing the university. Thinking it might be fun to buy a book, a modern or contemporary book, they stroll up Rue de l'Odéon, across from the National Theatre, spying a likely looking bookshop and decide to enter.

  • Edward Gorey Phantasmagorey, 1974 Pen and Ink with Collage on Paper Collection of Clifford Ross
    Edward Gorey Phantasmagorey, 1974 Pen and ink with collage on paper Collection of Clifford Ross Phantasmagorey is a play on the term “phantasmagoria” which means: “a constantly shifting, complex succession of things seen or imagined.” Like a phantasmagoria, this series of six images reveals dreamlike glimpses into Gorey’s imagination. Each vignette shows a common motif in Gorey’s work, including a ghostly femme fatale, a cat sitting atop a stack of books, and a fur-coated self-portrait. This drawing was made for an exhibition of the same name, held at the Sterling Memorial Library, Yale University, in 1974. An art student named Clifford Ross, now a contemporary artist in his own right, curated the first survey of Gorey’s work for his senior thesis. 501 Harry Benson Scottish, born 1929 Edward Gorey in His New York City Apartment with Cat, 1978 Gelatin silver print Collection of the artist Benson’s photographic portrait offers a glimpse into Gorey’s apartment in Manhattan’s Murray Hill neighborhood, where he lived from 1953 to 1983. Gorey displayed his collection of fine art—including a print by Edvard Munch and drawings by Balthus—next to found objects that he treated as works of art, such as a weathered crucifix and a needlepoint of a skull. Out and about in the city, he took in movies, theater, dance, and art exhibitions. At home, he retreated to his creative sanctuary filled with obscure books, fine art, and his beloved cats. Edvard Munch Norwegian, 1863–1944 The Woman and the Bear, 1908–9 Lithograph on wove paper mounted on wove paper Bequest of Edward Gorey, 2001.13.61 Munch created this image to illustrate his mythical story Alpha and Omega.

Even if you live with another bibliovore, what are the chances that you will both be struck by the desire to read and discuss, say, ''Bleak House'' or ''Ulysses'' at precisely the same moment? The growing popularity of reading groups and book clubs attests to the desire to talk about books as well as read them. Another motivation for joining such groups, suggested Alberto Manguel, author of ''A History of Reading,'' is that it ''makes you feel less guilty about an activity that society sees as leisure, entertainment or diversion.'' As a result, he said, ''it gives us an alibi for this kind of guilty pleasure.'' In fact, New Yorkers have been gathering together for general book talk for more than 100 years, said Thomas Bender, a professor of history at New York University. Around the turn of the century, he said, such groups played an important part in the city's cultural life. The phenomenon of the author as a star had already developed in Europe earlier in the 19th century, Mr.
