Art and Life ‘Intimately Mingled’

TERIADE, pseud. [i.e.Stratis ELEFTHERIADES (editor)]. VERVE Issues 1-4. I. December 1937; II. Spring 1938 (March–June); III. October–December 1938; IV. January–March 1939. Paris: 4 Rue Férou (6e). December 1937–March 1939.

Original wraparound colour-illustrated card wrappers, housed in a custom pale blue cloth slipcase lined with marbled paper and a chemise in quarter blue cloth with marbled sides; vol. I, pp. 112, [113–128]; vol. II, pp. 128; vol. III, pp. 132; vol. IV, pp. 140; heliogravure, colour process, and lithographed plates included in pagination; light rubbing to spine tips, extremities, and folds, tears with associated creasing to margins of vol.

Sharp, bright copies of the first four English-language issues of one of the high points of twentieth-century periodical publishing, featuring work by many of the greatest artists and writers of the age.

Like The Yellow Book (1894–1897), La Revue Blanche (1889–1903), and Blast (1914–1915), Teriade’s Parisian Verve review captured the spirit of its moment. The prefatory statement in the first issue boldly declares:

‘VERVE proposes to present art as intimately mingled with the life of each period and to furnish testimony of the participation by artists in the essential events of their time. It is devoted to artistic creation in all fields and in all forms. […] It will present documents as they are, without any arrangement which might detract from their naturalness. The value of its elements will depend on their character, the selection of them that has been made and the significance they assume through their disposition in the magazine. That the illustrations may retain the import of the originals, VERVE will utilize the technical methods best suited to each reproduction. It will call on the best specialists of heliogravure in colors and in black and white, as well as of typography, and will not disdain to employ the forgotten process of lithography. The luxuriousness of VERVE will consist in the publication of documents as fully and as perfectly as possible.’

These first four issues each bear striking wraparound colour covers by Matisse, Braque, Bonnard, and Rouault respectively, signalling the remarkable range of art and literature within. A brief glance at the contents pages reveals an extraordinary roll call of the greatest artists and writers at work during the early decades of the century: the first issue alone includes writing by Gide, Bataille, Dos Passos, Lorca, Malraux, and Michaux, alongside fine reproductions of paintings by Watteau, Corot, Delacroix, and Courbet, as well as recent work by Matisse, Derain, Bonnard, and Maillol; subsequent issues feature writing by Hemingway, Joyce, Sartre, and many others. First published in December 1937, Verve survived in various forms until 1960. These notably bright copies of the first four issues support John Russell’s description of the journal ‘s[inging] out from the other side of the street in a way that made us run across the road to look […] more closely.’

See Russell, ‘Flair for the Grand Gesture: Celebrating a Magazine’, New York Times (1988).

Style: 1 gal
This stuff is awesome. If you have tractor tires, ATV tires, bike, tires, hell, any tires that hold air. This stuff is awesome. Awesome. Awesome. It does not work for highway vehicles, i.e. Cars and truck trucks. But anything else it’s great. Dollies, air compressors, wheelbarrows, the stuff is awesome dude.

slime is and has always been amazing for bike tires and other small pneumatic tires
Style: 1 gal
this is a great value, I have been using slime in my tubes of my bikes and a small inflatable pneumatic tires for probably 30 years, and I can say slime has only improved, and it works fantastic, this is a very good way to save money, and it works great on goat heads and several other ways your tires can get punctured, I still always recommend carrying a small air compressor or pump, but for the price point you just cannot beat slime, every bike shop should always carry this.

TireJect Product Featured on Youtube Channel "sixtyfiveford" Works Fantastic!
Size: 8oz MTB Tire Sealant Kit, Size: 8oz MTB Tire Sealant Kit
I recently had an opportunity to work on an old Troy-Bilt Snow Blower with a Carlisle Stud Bias Tire - 4.80-8 4 that had a continual leak and would not hold pressure for more than a day. After investigation, I discovered that it "Champagne" sized bubbles coming from an area on the sidewall that I circled in yellow "China" marker. Because of the size of the tire, I decided to purchase the "TireJect Mountain Bike (MTB) Tire Sealant Kit because I didn't require a lot of material to seal the tire. The TireJect Mountain Bike (MTB) Tire Sealant Kit came with an single 8oz container and I used 4 of those 8oz's in this single tire. The TireJect material sealed up the area beautifully. After the sealant cured, I was able to pump up the tire to 15PSI and it has held it's pressure for more than a week now. You can see from the photos, that the sidewalls in that yellow circled area were actually cracked (probably due to the tire sitting flat for more than a year). I highly recommend this product over previous products I have used in the past (Slime).
