Kaufmann Levi
Letterbook of a revenue collector
Mechanicsburg 1866. Large 4to approx. 225 leaves red calf-backed cloth-covered boards; an onion skin holograph letter-book of retained correspondence; some bleed through and browning perhaps a dozen or so letters faint to the point of being unreadable but most are legible. Levi Kauffman whose great grandparents came from Germany in 1717 was born in 1833 in Lancaster County Pennsylvania of Christian and Anna Erb Kauffman members of the Reformed Mennonite Church. Levi Kauffman moved to Mechanicsburg in 1854 and set up a hardware and dry goods store. Between 1859-62 he was a cashier in the Merkel and Mumma Bank which became the First National Bank of Mechanicsburg. Later Kauffman was a Collector of Revenue and cashier at the 2nd National Bank 1864-69. In this capacity his correspondents were various officials in regards to the collection of tax revenues for it appears mainly liquor and cigars. Most of the correspondents are Pennsylvanian: from Carlisle York Newport Mechanicsburg Philadelphia New Bloomfield Shippensburg Harrisburg but also Chicago New York and Washington D.C. A letter to Hon. Hugh McCulloch of the US Treasury deals with a recommendation for the Inspector of Spirits. A letter on June 8 to George Schneider Collector in Chicago deals with a seized shipment of cigars but "the cigars had been shipped long before regulations in circular 40 had been promulgated." Kauffman says Mr. Miller who was selling the cigars was "a poor man but of good character" and his shipment should be released to him without penalty. In July Kauffman writes to Hon. E. A. Rollins the Commissioner of Internal Revenue in an unsuccessful attempt to retire and get a soldier appointed as his successor. There are also a few letters relative to church business such as one addressed to Brother A. Hosletter of Shippensburg and some with political content such as a letter to the Governor of Pennsylvania J. W. Geary concerning an appointment for the Supt. of State Printing. There are two or three other letters written to Geary. Another letter with political content is to Hon. John W. Forney who at the time was Secretary of the Senate in Washington DC concerning appointments made by Gov. Geary. In another letter to Forney Kaufmann writes: "It is very seldom that I taste wine or any liquor but I have some of this "California" in my hand and believing it better than most foreign wines I thought I would send you some. Then too it is American which makes it better." There are also a few personal letters addressed to his brother C. Christian S. Kauffman in Columbia concerning money borrowed. An interesting set of detailed letters from a businessman concerning financial and political events of the time. <br/><br/> hardcover books

CONSTITUTION OF THE "WORKINGMEN'S UNION" OF STARK COUNTY OHIO. DIE CONSTITUTION DES "ARBEITER BUNDES" VON STARK COUNTY OHIO
Canton OH: Gedruckt in der Office des "Deutschen in Ohio." Printed by John Raber 1861. 30pp printed in parallel columns of English and German. Original plain wrappers with map of Pennsylvania Central Railroad route and connecting towns printed on inner wraps edges tattered with some loss front wrap detached. Chip at blank inner margin of title leaf. Good. Signed in type by Peter Kaufmann Chairman; Jac. S. Brownewell Vice-President; Wm. Prince Substitute; John Raber Recording Secretary; John M. Schneider Corresponding Secretary; and Conrad Schweitzer Treasurer. <br/><br/> An early German-American organization whose Constitution emphasizes the necessity of "Union and concert of action" to enhance "the general welfare." It derives its legitimacy from the Declaration of Independence and announces the "Absolute equality of innate human rights." The founders determine to organize "themselves into a band of brothers pledged unto one another to be faithful unto death declaring 'in Union there is strength'." Despite the suggestions of an early industrial trade union in what would become the Nation's industrial heartland the Union purports to elevate the whole person-- encouraging the pursuit of knowledge reining in government encroachments and spending and insisting that government is the servant of the people. Peter Kaufmann who appears to have been the prime mover of the organization was a Canton author almanac-maker bookseller publisher and clearly of an entrepreneurial bent. <br/>OCLC 17342629 6.

Nietzsche: Philosopher Psychologist Antichrist
New York: Vintage 1968. Third Edition. Third Edition. Very Good. Third edition. Spine creased wrappers rubbed ink name on half-title page. 1968 Trade Paperback. xviii 524 pp. "This classic is the benchmark against which all modern books about Nietzsche are measured. When Walter Kaufmann wrote it in the immediate aftermath of World War II most scholars outside Germany viewed Nietzsche as part madman part proto-Nazi and almost wholly unphilosophical. Kaufmann rehabilitated Nietzsche nearly single-handedly presenting his works as one of the great achievements of Western philosophy. Responding to the powerful myths and countermyths that had sprung up around Nietzsche Kaufmann offered a patient evenhanded account of his life and works and of the uses and abuses to which subsequent generations had put his ideas. Without ignoring or downplaying the ugliness of many of Nietzsche's proclamations he set them in the context of his work as a whole and of the counterexamples yielded by a responsible reading of his books. More positively he presented Nietzsche's ideas about power as one of the great accomplishments of modern philosophy arguing that his conception of the "will to power" was not a crude apology for ruthless self-assertion but must be linked to Nietzsche's equally profound ideas about sublimation. He also presented Nietzsche as a pioneer of modern psychology and argued that a key to understanding his overall philosophy is to see it as a reaction against Christianity. Many scholars in the past half century have taken issue with some of Kaufmann's interpretations but the book ranks as one of the most influential accounts ever written of any major Western thinker.

Kaufmann & Fabry ; Photographers
Color Beauties of a Century of Progress Chicago 1933 Full-Color Kaufmann-Fabry Photographic Record
Chicago: Exposition Publications and Novelties Inc. 1933. Very Good. <br /> A high-velocity visual record of the 1933 World's Fair featuring the hyper-saturated color photography that defined the Exposition's identity. <br /> <br /> Unlike traditional black-and-white souvenirs this work utilizes a sophisticated overprinting process to capture the 'Rainbow City' in its intended brilliance. The layout represents a critical transitional moment in American graphic arts where the geometric rigidity of Art Deco began to soften into the aerodynamic 'Streamline Moderne' style that would dominate the decade.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES<br /> Visuals: 32 unnumbered pages featuring full-color photographic reproductions by Kaufmann-Fabry. Each image is framed by modernist graphic borders in yellow and gray. <br /> Binding: Original stapled wraps in an oblong format; the covers are slightly oversized compared to the internal text block. <br /> Content: Features landmark structures including the Administration Building the Golden Pavilion of Jehol Lama Temple and the General Exhibits Group. Includes a detailed 'Exposition Ground Plan' on the final leaf. <br /> Imprint: Published by Exposition Publications and Novelties Inc. a subsidiary of American Colortype Co. Chicago. <br /> Specs: 8.25 x 6.5 inches.<br /> <br /> CONDITION: Very Good. The internal pages are clean with vivid color retention and no significant foxing. The staples are firm and show no rust migration. The oversized wraps show light rubbing to the extremities and typical minor creasing at the spine but remain bright and structurally sound. A crisp example of Depression-era souvenir printing. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE ---- <br /> The 1933 Century of Progress Exposition served as a turning point in American architectural history signaling the shift from the ornate Art Deco of the 1920s to the sleeker Streamline Moderne or 'Machine Age' Modernism. While the geometric motifs and bold primary colors seen in the borders of this book retain Deco DNA the buildings themselves-such as the Administration Building and the General Exhibits Group-showcase the 'fins' rounded corners and smooth surfaces of the emerging Modern style. The Exposition was a manifesto for a future built on industrial technology and electricity and this book functions as the primary visual evidence of that architectural pivot.<br /> <br /> The coloring process used in this volume is as significant as the subjects themselves. Produced by the American Colortype Co. these images likely utilized a high-end multicolor letterpress or early offset lithography process involving the layering of separate color plates cyan magenta yellow and black over black-and-white base photographs. This technique often referred to as 'Colortype' allowed for a degree of saturation and depth that exceeded the hand-colored postcards of the era. It was specifically chosen to market the 'Rainbow City'-the first World's Fair to use a coordinated psychologically-driven color scheme across all major pavilions.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: World's Fairs Chicago History Modernist Architecture Color Photography 1933 Century of Progress Souvenir Book Photography Ephemera.
