‎(BROADSIDE BALLAD -- CIVIL WAR)‎

‎Welcome Our Gallant 69th‎

‎New York: H. De Marsan n.y. Broadside. 6¼" X 10". Very good. Numerous edge chips along right side and bit on lower edge only slightly encroaching on decorative border. This crudely printed broadside ballad undated but circa 1861 includes a thick decorative patriotic border featuring red and blue stars and stripes olive-branch clutching American Eagle etc. with publisher's data "H. De Marsan Publisher / 54 Chatham St. / N.Y." at bottom center of border. Sung to the tune of "Marshal Ney" a popular tune celebrating the Napoleonic figure this Civil War tune celebrates the 69th New York Infantry Regiment the "Fighting Irish" or "Fighting Sixty-Ninth." Two stanzas and one chorus are featured the chorus reading: "Right and left -- left and right: / We fought the Rebels with all our might; / Brave CORCORAN did wounded fall / And HAGGERTY died by a Traitor's ball." Irish-born Michael Corcoran 1827-63 led the 69th at the First Battle of Bull Run in July 1861 in which he was taken prisoner and Irish-born Captain James Haggerty the first member of the 69th to die was reportedly killed by a Louisiana Zouave which also included many Irishmen. These "penny ballads" were all the rage during much of the 19th century and were invariably printed on thin delicate stock and sold by street vendors. A quite attractive example of this rare survivor. Inkstamped on verso is "Geo. F. Hambrecht" -- a well-known Civil War collector and noted Lincoln scholar 1871-1943 who founded the Lincoln Fellowship of Wisconsin and served as director of the Wisconsin State Board of Vocational Education.

‎[Eighteenth-century English manuscript ballad; Georgian popular poetry]:‎

‎Eighteenth-century ballad. Manuscript of untitled poem beginning 'Ere ye. read ys. ye. may suppose. That some new listed Lover. By means of Poetry has chose. His Passion to discover.'‎

‎Early eighteenth century. Another later version published in the Gentleman's Magazine London May 1744. 2pp. on both sides of a strip of 35.5 x 11.5 cm laid paper with fleur-de-lys watermark. In a secretary hand employing the thorn and long s. In fair condition on aged and worn paper. An untitled forty-line poem divided into five numbered eight-line stanzas. The narrator is an older married woman advising a younger woman not to marry with observations on the frailties of the male sex. The first stanza reads: 'Ere ye. read ys. ye. may suppose. That some new listed Lover. By means of Poetry has chose. His Passion to discover. Know Faire one I am a Matron Grave Which Time & Care has wasted And would thy Youth from sorrow save Which I have in Wedlock tasted.' A variation of the poem was published in the Gentleman's Magazine May 1744 with the title 'The MATRON's Advice to a YOUNG LADY A new BALLAD. Tune Sally.' The grammar of the Gentleman's Magazine version is more modern in tone its first line reading: 'Ere you read this you may suppose' and the variations are most apparent in the third stanza including 'Beset thy dwelling' in the published version for 'Surround thy Threshold' in the manuscript; 'heedless' for 'regardless'; 'Pass all your minutes' for 'Thy Moments pass on'; 'While flames are offer'd at our shrine And Men like Idols sue us' for 'Darts flames & hoards adorn Our shrine And Awful Hymen woo us.' The writer has begun to write another poem on the reverse of the slip: 'Come lesten sic ye tories & jacobites now Your Plot <.> shew'. Not present in the English Broadside Ballad Archive. Early eighteenth century. [Another (later?) version published in the Gentleman's Magazine, London, May 1744.] unknown‎

‎[Honorable Prostitution] [Economics of Marriage] [Women's Education] [Broadside Ballad]‎

‎The Dandy Wife‎

‎London: T. Birt 1828. First edition. Single sheet measuring 250 x 185mm and printed in two columns to recto. Some edgewear to margins not affecting text; a bit of foxing and toning largely confined to margins. A scarce and delicate survivor OCLC documents only one example at the National Library of Scotland. The present is the only example on the market.<br /> <br /> The Dandy Wife is narrated by a man who aimed "to choose me out a loving wife" at the age of twenty-one but whose experience becomes a warning to "all young men of high renown": "If you want a tidy wife Beware of a boarding school." What unfolds is a satire of how the marriage economy is affected when women have access to knowledge -- intellectual and physical -- and how by meeting a man's superficial expectations a woman can fulfill her own more pressing needs.<br /> <br /> Thinking that a boarding school girl will have the innocence submissiveness and domestic skill he desires the narrator selects a wife from among their ranks. Thinking only of what he can obtain from such a bargain he is unprepared for what an educated woman brings into his house. The Dandy Wife he describes understands the commodity value of her own beauty and material adornment and that these are her key means for acquiring wealth of her own. "She takes one-half of what I earn In drinking gin and tea; Besides such frills and furbelows My Dandy Wife does wear.Her sleeves upon her dandy gown Oh! Lack they're such a size You'd think they were two balloons that in the air would rise." Aside from staying on par with fashion trends her clothing assists her in avoiding domestic tasks she abhors. She refuses to do laundry more than monthly and through ridiculous cooking failures she rapidly establishes that the kitchen is not a showcase for her skillset. Accustomed to a life of learning she is not trained to conduct domestic business. <br /> <br /> By the ballad's end it becomes clear that the Dandy Wife was savvier in managing a marriage than her husband was. For not only does her superior intellect help her carve out a more satisfying role but she also has physical knowledge that predates him: "The day that I was married I thought I'd got a charming maid But I was much deceived.For scarce five months we'd married been When she had a darling son.

‎Pennsylvania 1822. Broadside. near Very Good binding. Broadside. 14-1/2" x 7-3/4." Printed in franktur in black within typographically decorative border. Old folds; some spotting and toning; generally quite a nice copy. <br /> <br /> German-American murder ballad broadside recounting the life and death of the Prussian-Polish immigrant Joseph Müller who eloped to Lebanon Pennsylvania with his upper-class wife. Destitute and homesick Müller would eventually murder his pregnant wife and two children with an axe before hanging himself. The poem consists of sixteen stanzas of eight lines apiece and according to Hermann Wellenreuther in Citizens in a Strange Land went into 16 editions p. 13. Penn State's collection: German-Language Broadsides in North America 1730-1830 catalogs 13 of the 16 and all but two are with the "Miller" spelling. This example is not present in the that collection. One might speculate that issues like this one with the "Müller" spelling might be earlier while the anglicized spelling coming later. Regardless none of the broadsides are common in commerce and given how many editions there where they remain relatively rare in institutional holdings. See Don Yoder The Pennsylvania German Broadside 2005 pp. 52-4 referring to a variant. Wellenreuther Hermann. Citizens in a Strange Land: A Study of German-American Broadsides and Their Meaning for Germans in North America 1730-1830 2013. Not in American Imprints. unknown‎

‎Buffer Substances From Secondary Raw Material: An Eco-efficiency Analysis‎

‎Forstbuch. 2005. Trade paperback. Fine. No dust jacket as issued. 136 p. Includes: diagrams bibliography. . In order to maintain the soil quality of forested land and to protect it from acidic entry dolomitic lime is regularly employed in areas in need of buffering. However in view of the vision of sustainability and against the background of recycling management implementation of waste materials or so-called secondary raw materials have also proven to be suitable candidates for dolomite substitutes This book seeks to analyse the economic and ecological efficiency of using mixtures from several secondary raw materials as buffer substances by applying the research steps of an eco-efficiency PROSA Product Sustainability Assessment. The results of this study show that several secondary raw material mixes can indeed compete ecologically with dolomite and after several improvements in production process also economically withstand the competition in this market.
