Description: RARE as signed, scarce otherwise. 1929 Stated First Edition Signed and inscribed by Ted Shawn on the first free endpaper. The book is in GOOD Condition with some light soiling, light wear and some beginning separations between a few signatures, which I have found to be common for Dutton works of this period and would recommend an inexpensive rebacking in the future, but for the time being it isn't necessary. If you are considering other sellers' copies, ask specifically if there are any sections between any signatures which have beginning separations before purchasing. I do my best to be thorough. Wiki: 'Ted Shawn (born Edwin Myers Shawn 1891-1972) was a pioneer of American modern dance. He created the Denishawn School together with his wife Ruth St. Denis. After their separation he created the all-male company Ted Shawn and His Men Dancers. With his innovative ideas of masculine movement, he was one of the most influential choreographers and dancers of his day. He was also the founder and creator of Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts, and 'was knighted by the King of Denmark for his efforts on behalf of the Royal Danish Ballet.'"
