Travel Journal recounting train and bus trip from New York City to Washington DC and Philadelphia PA for the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition of 1926
1926. Very Good. Pocket notebook 16 x 8cm; 40 leaves. Handwritten notes in ink on each recto. Staple-bound at top edge with black tape covering. Perforated leaves. Cardboard backing with no front cover possibly as issued one stub remains on top from a torn-out sheet; unsure if this was a cover page or a blank but journal begins on first existing page so no loss assumed.

The author's name is never stated but based on content is likely a young man from New York City traveling with his father. Handwriting is legible throughout.<br /> <br /> Majority of journal describes visiting DC landmarks describes the interior of the Pan American Union building in detail and complains about the DC heat. In Philadelphia he recounts an incident at the hotel: "At 1 o'clock last night or this morning rather the band . came to the hotel their headquarters playing louder than any other bands ever played together and the policemen looked on and laughed. Ha! Ha! What a good joke."<br /> <br /> A detailed glimpse into one man's travel experience in the mid-1920s. unknown

Two Screen Printed Posters for Open Wide Religious Arts Festival of the Kennebunks
<p>Two posters 13" x 19" and 13" x 20" respectively screen printed in two colors on red construction paper mounted on board. Slight edgewear corners lightly bumped and with small pin holes to corners of red paper but not boards. Slight toning and rubbing to surfaces but mostly clean and bright. 2592</p><p><em>Two screen printed posters reproduced from 60s-style psychedelic hand lettering advertising art exhibit and cultural events programming as part of the Open Wide Religious Arts Festival "in the Kennebunks" i.e. in the area of Kennebunk Maine and/or its neighboring town Kennebunkport. Apparently associated with one or more churches or religious communities as several advertised events mention a chapel worship service or other religious themes and programming. The rest of the events cover a wide range of arts happenings from exhibits of painting sculpture photography and historical artifiacts to dance theater including a performance by Bread and Puppet and poetry readings including by activist-priest Daniel Berrigan. Possibly from 1967 or 1968 the two years we can find reference to the festival taking place. Beautiful anonymous vernacular examples of the meeting of groovy flower-power design and religious community à la Sister Corita Kent.</em></p>

Unpublished Manuscript: Mirthquakes Hits Darkeytown! A Minstrel Show
1940. Near Fine. An original unpublished typescript of a mid-20th Century minstrelsy together with six mimeographed copies of the typescript. The original typescript consists of 12 quarto pages typed in orange on rectos only paginated in ink by hand and a one-page List of Characters. In fine condition. The six mimeographed copies consist of 12 folio sheets 9" x 14" stapled at the topedge onto a cardboard back cover accompanied by two mimeographed copies of the list of characters on separate quarto sheets. The mimeographed copies are lightly toned three or four copies have some slight staining one copy has an owner name in ink and one is lightly annotated near fine or better overall.<br /> <br /> The list of 21 characters includes: The Interlocutor Hambones Tambo Shakespeare of Harlem Seven-Up Jackson Suntan Cootie-Locks Dimwit Muskrat Geo. Washington Jones and others. The single-spaced typescript with about 50-60 lines per page is laced with racist language and stereotypes and includes dialogue musical cues stage directions and narration of the Interlocutor; it ends with one of two poems by Shakespeare of Harlem: “Honey dis am Rufus Tappin’ on yoh window-pane … †and a skit by Seven-Up Jackson: “the only known real live gold-fish swallowing act in history … .â€<br /> <br /> Internal evidence including references to an atomic bomb attack on Tokyo suggests that the play was likely written late in or soon after the Second World War. In 1953 two popular films with similar titles were released: Walt Disney’s Thanksgiving Day Mirthquakes and Merry Mirthquakes featuring a young Liberace as Master of Ceremonies. It is also possible that the character “Shakespeare of Harlem†is an allusion to Langton Hughes whose book of poems “Shakespeare of Harlem†was first published in 1942. An unpublished and unrecorded American minstrelsy well-preserved in near fine condition. The presence of multiple copies inveighs strongly that these scripts were actively used in a group production. unknown

Unpublished History Book. The Triple Crown in England. A Brief Chronicle of the Connexion Between England and Rome from the Conversion of the Saxons to the Reign of Henry the Eighth. Compiled from Protestant and Romanish Histories
<p>n.p. 1848. About very good in contemporary half calf over brown marbled boards rubbing to edges and corners spine label missing from vol. I prior owner bookplates removed vol. I front hinge broken some pages reinforced others with cancels as apparently intended and with minor foxing to some pages as the leaves are in a variety of papers some more susceptible to foxing than others. An unpublished handwritten manuscript which appears to be a final draft of an ecclesiastical history of the English church and which clearly takes issue with many of the teachings of the contemporary Catholic church. Written throughout in a clear hand and with extensive footnote citations to writers such as Bede Gildas Columba and others.<br /><br />The work appears to be an abridged compilation of many works in a similar vein to F.G. Tomlin's History of England with a significant portion of early chapters borrowing heavily and verbatim from Tindal's translation of Rapin de Thoyras's History of England.<br /><br />A fascinating and unique work which was clearly a labor of love and displays the author's work process. The manuscript holds many more unknowns for a researcher to discover.<br /><br />Small 4to. 2 vols. 2 136pp.; 1 137-318pp. Written on rectos only but with notes and revisions on many versos and with many revisions tipped- or pasted-in.</p>

[Anonymous] "AJ" A J
Untitled Original Manuscript Illustrated Artist's Book
n.p.: n.p. 1970. Near fine. Enigmatic and disquieting collection of six short stories and one 90-page novella neatly and distinctively handwritten and illustrated in brown ink. The material veers in tone from the parodic to the surreal to the philosophically melancholic; the style incorporates a recondite vocabulary "the pyral tarantism of being in the world" and a single consistent insistent voice alternating long unpunctuated Joycean streams of frantic consciousness with brief and airless sentence fragments. A perpetual undercurrent of violent sexuality surfaces as much in the settings and scenery as in the events: a car crash; a game of human chess; a blazing furnace; a slaughterhouse. The table of contents gives titles for each work but no author's name; the bookplate with initials "A. J." offer the only clue to the item's creator or owner. <br /> <br /> The authorial narration steps out of its queasy dreamtime now and then to comment on itself "It would appear that this is the whim of the authors" or to focus on a concrete and precisely dated image: "Week-end Traffic" catalogs automobile makes and models in obsessive parodic almost Ballardian detail - a 1931 Alfa-Romeo; a '28 Lombard a Triumph Scorpion - and characters offer each other Passing Cloud cigarettes. But for the most part settings are as hard to place as the book itself. Character names are almost but not quite real: Nish Rogoze Valetta Fedor Shad. <br /> <br /> Illustrated with line drawings in brown pen presumably also by the writer with occasional accents in black and brief captions taken from the scenes they illustrate. The execution is skilled but careful often quoting other artwork as in the illustration to the final story "Communication" whose subject is the Breughel painting Dulle Griet; we see a copy of Brueghel's scene through the latticework of a window. Other illustrations appear to be carefully composed from copies or multiple tracings giving something of the effect of a Max Ernst collage - particularly the images of a horse-headed woman and a lion-headed man perhaps an intentional quotation from Une Semaine de Bonte. A Piranesi-esque interior gives way to a crowned woman in 20th century corset and garter belt: the Queen. <br /> <br /> Although a precise date cannot be given this book bears the stamp of a London bindery which operated as Bailey Bros. until a name-change in the 1970s and references in the text place its composition after the 1930s; we estimate the date of production to be circa the late 1960s to early 1970s - though its private library feel perhaps hints at a possible earlier creation. <br /> <br /> Bizarre and unsettling yet also the product of an original voice. In short: a singular artist's book of unique vision. Original red morocco with raised bands and decorative gilt stamping to spine. Top edge gilt. Black and gold patterned endpapers. 205 pages. Bookplate taped to ffep; brown geometric design with designer initials ACW at lower right and "Ex Libris AJ". Gilt stamping to lower edge of back cover below paste-down: "BOUND BY BAILEY BROS. LTD." Slight chipping to leather at inside rear hinge. Light edgewear and rubbing. n.p. hardcover

Vintage British anarchist punk armbands c. 1980
UK: Unknown 1980. Near Fine. Two vintage anarcho-punk/ peace punk armbands from the United Kingdom manufactured circa 1980. Machine sewn white cotton linen with black elastic bands at verso. Screen printed red anarchist designs. Each are 6.5 x 3.5". Near Fine with light fading and minor abrasions at edges. <p>Scarce in-your-face political ephemera from Britain's angry young and poor. Manufactured roughly one year after Margaret Thatcher's 1979 election -- a vote that solidified the anarchist and punk legions in opposition. <p>The "Anarchy in '80" armband shows up around the leg of a guitarist in a photo of an obscure UK punk group The Condemned on the blog Leaders of Men taken in 1979 or 1980. The blogger refers to it as "proto crust" which seems accurate; it likely emanated from the cluster of punks around Crass and Subhumans that would become canonical "crust punk" bands.

Xenopus rothschildi lithographed plate of an undescribed frog
London no publisher ca. 1910. Single sheet 31.9 x 25.3 cm. With eight lithographed images of Xenopus species. = This plate depicts three species of the clawed frog genus Xenopus principally of a new species X. rothschildi with four figures including three of complete animals and two others namely Müller's platanna X. muelleri Peters 1844 and the well-known African clawed frog X. laevis Daudin 1802 both represented by comparative line engravings. The plate was lithographed by J. Green the well-known London-based lithographer. The new species name suggests that the new species was obtained during one of Baron Rothschild's expeditions perhaps the one to the northeastern part of Africa in the years 1904-1905. In this region X. laevis does not occur. In any event the name Xenopus rothschildi was never published see e.g. Tinsley and Kobel 1996. Very rare perhaps unique. unknown

[Artist's Book]. [Anonymous]
DIE VOLLKOMMENE GASTGEBERIN IST FUR MICH DIE 'DAME MIT DER PEITSCHE" Cover Title - "For me the perfect host is the "lady with a whip"
np 1960. Very good. An extraordinary and unique handmade artist's book elaborately assembled by an anonymous artist. A kinky but lighthearted celebration of female flagellantism the book appropriates quintessentially 1960s fashion models and recontextualizes them in dozens of original collages so that they are weilding whips switches and various similar tools. Paired with self-referential and irreverant texts as well as black-and-white hand-penned drawings presumably by the assembler of bondage spankings and other S&M-themed scenes the book humorously imagines Mod Girls as doms - a perhaps intentional visual pun. The collages many spanning across page spreads and including one fold-out exhibit a strikingly skillful and stylish retraint suggesting an ambition and audience beyond the merely pruriently personal. An outsider book of rare sophistication and wit: the Swinging Sixties meets Dada. Yeah baby. 6.5'' x 9.25''. Likely commercial scrapbook but possibly ad-hoc collages boards. Containing 66pp. plus covers and one fold-out all mounted both recto and verso with color collages consisting mainly of magazine models with occasional textual elements in German many typed. Spine appears perished. But otherwise sound and apparently complete. Very good. Housed in custom Talas archival clamshell box. hardcover

[Author Anonymous] ; [Transportation History]
The Roads and Railroads Vehicles and Modes of Travelling Bridges Tunnels and Canals 1839
London: John W. Parker 1839. Very Good/No Jacket. <br /> <br /> An expansive Victorian survey of global infrastructure published during the dawn of the Railway Age. <br /> <br /> This work provides a meticulous history of human movement from the engineering of Roman roads to the cutting-edge development of steam locomotives and suspension bridges in the early 19th century. Richly illustrated with detailed wood engravings it documents a world in the midst of a transport revolution balancing technical accounts of canals and tunnels with the social history of 'modern' travel.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES<br /> Visuals: Illustrated throughout with numerous wood engravings depicting historical vehicles bridge architecture and early rail technology; includes 5 unnumbered leaves of plates. <br /> Binding: Original brown ribbed cloth with ornate blind-stamped borders and gilt spine titles. <br /> Content: Comprehensive chapters on Roman roads the evolution of the wheel the construction of the Thames Tunnel and the rise of British canals. <br /> Imprint: John W. Parker West Strand London. 1839. First Edition First Printing. <br /> Specs: 12mo; viii 340 pages.<br /> <br /> CONDITION: Very Good. The bindings are tight and square. The text is clean with only light even toning. Moderate shelf handling wear is present; the head of the spine is frayed with a small loss to the cloth. A partial small name stamp appears on the front free endpaper. A very presentable copy of a fragile mid-century technical work.<br /> <br /> SCHOLARLY FEATURES<br /> The Industrial Transition: Published just as the 'Railway Mania' of the 1840s was beginning capturing a unique moment when horse-drawn and steam-powered transport coexisted.<br /> Anonymous Victorian Series: Likely part of Parker's 'Select Books' or 'Collections in Popular Literature' intended to educate the growing British middle class on engineering and history. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -<br /> This 1839 survey stands as a primary witness to the 'Great British Railway Revolution.' By documenting ancient modes of travel alongside contemporary canal and rail engineering the author likely a scholar in the John W. Parker circle provided the Victorian public with a sense of historical continuity during a period of jarring technological change. It remains a vital reference for the history of civil engineering and the social impact of the steam engine.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: Transportation History Civil Engineering Roman Roads Early Railways Canal Construction Victorian Technology History of Science & Technology First Edition Illustrated.<br /> <br /> REFERENCE: YCfBA Yale Center for British Art Paul Mellon Collection.

[Bawdy Broadside] Anonymous
Answer to The Knitting with The Knitting
Bury: Birchinall Printer 1820. First edition. Near Fine. Broadside measuring 245 x 380mm and printed to verso only; the layout and placement of the imprint suggest that this piece was meant to be folded down the center with The Knitting appearing first and Answer appearing at rear. A very nearly Fine example with just a bit of creasing at the corners and faint offsetting along the left margin. Unrecorded by the Bodleian Library of Broadside Ballads or by OCLC the typeface suggests that it was produced toward the end of W. Birchinall's operations 1806-1829.<br /> <br /> A common thread connecting the Birchinall broadsides recorded by OCLC is the sensational depictions of 19th century true crime -- from the murder of Mary Booty in 1806 to the execution of Thomas South and his companions in 1816 to the burglary trial of James Philips and John Wade in 1822. The Knitting and Answer to the Knitting stand apart from these in a number of ways. Not only are they not sensationalizing identifiable local activities using names and dates clearly within their titles they take a more literary and satirical tone in relating young Susan's education in "knitting" and her resulting pregnancy and rejection by the shepherd Johnny. <br /> <br /> The Knitting focuses not only on Johnny's seduction but even more so on Susan's public exposure to gossip and social rejection as a result of his refusal to marry her. The text's serious warning to young women -- that whether right or wrong they will ultimately be blamed for the outcomes of unwed sex -- is undercut however by the followup Answer. Unlike The Knitting which opens with a more formal communal overture "come all ye pretty maidens fair" Answer creates a more private conspiratorial tone with its "It's of a young damsel as I have heard say." Lured into gossip by the narrator readers hear how Johnny returns to Susan after being required to pay child support for their son; how he secretly confesses his love in order to lure Susan again into a tryst; and how the couple's intercourse in a grove is a source of humor with Johnny's lovemaking resembling "a man that had fits". Unlike The Knitting's widely shared community knowledge and its use of gossip to warn young women and curb their sexual behavior Answer depicts how gossip spreads individual to individual with the narrator having heard this story from an unnamed friend and then sharing it with the reader among men to warn them against getting caught for their indiscretions.<br /> <br /> A research rich piece and the only known copy further work could be done on the physical object its typography and its printer. On a literary level further analysis could be done on how the pairing connects to other call-and-response poems such as the 17th century Passionate Shepherd to His Love and The Nymph's Reply and to the pastoral tradition. On a social history level further study could connect the work to 19th century gossip helping historians to understand how the practice of gossip differed in groups of various genders or classes especially surrounding sexuality and shame. Near Fine. Birchinall, Printer unknown

Amsterdam 1635. Small 8vo 14.5 x 9 cm. Jacob Aertsz. Colom Half calf ca. 1830s with the binder's stamp on an endleaf F. DUQUESNE À GAND chemical marbled sides 2 black spine labels marbled endpapers. With 2 decorative initial letters castings made from woodcuts and a decoration made from cast fleurons on the title-page. The main text is set in roman type with long passages in italic and textura. 136 1 1 blank; 30 pp. Second known copy of the third edition 1635 of a rare satirical Dutch adaptation first and second editions 1634 of a moralistic story in Latin by Filippo Beroaldo 1453-1505 possibly intended in this adaptation to satirize the Princes of Orange. The quotations from classical sources are given in Latin each followed by a Dutch verse translation that takes some liberties with the text. Pieter Nootmans active 1627-1635 contributed a verse about the book printed on the back of the title-page. Following the main text is a drinking song by H. Rulant active 1632-1634 with its own part-title which had been published separately in 1632. We have located only one other copy of the present edition in the library of Tresoar in Leeuwarden.The British Library database of bindings includes one binding by this Ghent binder. The title-page is worn and dirty with a small abrasion obliterating the letter S in "Stichtigh" and the upper outside corner of the last leaf has been restored with the loss of a few words of the text of the added drinking song. The binding is good with some cracks in the hinges and minor damage along the edges.l KVK & WorldCat 1 copy; cf. Kruyskamp Jan Mommaert en het "Stichtelyck Proces" in: Het Boek XXX pp. 306-312 1640 ed. unknown
