A 20th century facsimile edition of a 17th Century work entitled "The Exercise of Armes" by Jacob De Gheyn. The dust jacket shows a circa 1607 etching of three well-dressed, bearded men in wide-brimmed, feathered hats. All are carrying very large blunderbuss-style guns. The background for the artwork is printed in solid red. Above the illustration a black panel shows the title and author's name in white letters. A book entitled "Selected Cautionary Verses", by Hilaire Belloc. On a yellow background a black & white line drawing shows an elderly man speaking to a young boy. His hand is on the boy's shoulder. A square black art book with white letters spelling out the title in capitalized, sans-serif letters: Whispers: "Ulay on Ulay". The author's names are not shown. A square format book entitled "Grant Wood: The Regionalist Vision", by Wanda M. Corn. A painting by the artist shows a birds-eye view looking down on rolling green hills, with a tiny farmer and his horse tilling a field in the foreground. A farm house can be seen in the distance on the left. Titles of the book are overlaid in white letters.
