Little Magazine BlueBeat : A Collection of Recent Sounds
New York: BlueBeat Publications 1964. First Edition. <br /><br />Quarto 11 x 8 1/2 inches; 280 x 216 mm 3 41 2 mimeographed leaves rectos only except for final page in stapled illustrated wrappers. <br /><br />The first -- and apparently only -- issue of BlueBeat a mimeographed poetry magazine from New York's Lower East Side. The editors George Montgomery and Erik Kiviat were also involved in Yowl another New York poetry magazine. According to the title page only 207 copies were printed. <br /><br />In the introduction poet Kirby Congdon makes the case for a mimeographed poetry magazine that's not issued by established publishers: "It can be produced by any poet or group of poets; it avoids large monetary entanglements and its distribution is impersonal and objective. And best of all a mimeo can experiment with new ideas and expose new poets because it can afford to fail." <br /><br />Some of the contributors were already known in 1964 and were active in the New York poetry scene but many others were newcomers or relatively unknown. <br /><br />The contributors by order of appearance: Margo Love Ray Bremser Jim Brody Jerry Greenberg Jonas Kover Judson Crews Jay Socin Paul Blackburn Barbara Moraff Alex Wiener who drew the cover and also has a poem here Jack Micheline Bob Blossom John Keys Carol Bergé Barbara Jarvik Ted Berrigan Gerard Malanga Harold Carrington Stanley Fisher Jerry Greenberg a second poem Tuli Kupferberg Charles Guenther Bob Blossom a second poem Lynn Fisher Aram Saroyan Stephen Tropp Kirby Congdon also author of the introduction Ed Sanders Walter Lowenfels Gloria Tropp Bonnie Bremser Allen W. De Loach Lenore Kandel Al Katzman R.C. Wilson Szabo Penrod Erik Kiviat and George Montgomery. <br /><br />Following the poems there's a page called "Notes" featuring short sometimes irreverent bios of the contributors: Lenore Kandel: "belly dancer-poet." Margo Love: "recluse." The table of contents appears as the final page the only page printed on the verso. <br /><br />OCLC shows 21 institutional holdings of this mimeo publication. OCLC 2103934. Scarce in commerce. <br /><br />CONDITION: Mild toning to extremities of some pages a couple of spots of foxing a few nicks to upper wrapper and final page. Overall Very Good or better.

LETTER FROM THE REV. H. MONTGOMERY TO DANIEL O'CONNELL ESQ. M.P.
Dublin: W. Underwood 1831. 20pp. Extracted from bound pamphlet volume. Sewing absent and toe of spine chipped externally dusty lightly foxed and with old stain in lower margin of title; faint old stamps of a defunct mercantile library; just a sound working copy. One of two Dublin printings of this date. A densely set strongly worded criticism of O'Connell by the founder of the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster: "To O'Connell's agitation for repeal of the union he was strongly opposed; his letter to O'Connell 1 Feb. 1831 was among the most powerful attacks upon the Liberator's position and did much to alienate Irish liberals from his cause" - DNB. OCLC/Worldcat locates four copies of this printing one incomplete one evidently a manuscript copy. There were also printings in Belfast and Cork and another Dublin printing "published at the office of the Evening Packet." W. Underwood unknown books

Practical Detail of the Cotton Manufacture of the United States of America; and the State of Cotton Manufacture of that Country Contrasted and Compared with that of Great Britain; with Comparative Estimates of the Cost of Manufacturing in Both Countries
8vo original cloth with gilt spine illustrated 219 pp. Some wear to binding a few white numbers on spine and cloth joints cracked. Lacks front flyleaf and have title is clipped but with no loss. Normal aging and embossed library stamp on title and folding plates. Overall in pretty good condition. Montgomery 1792-1880 presents considerable data a good portion in numerous tables on the different aspects of the cost of manufacturing cotton. He looks at manufacturing costs in several locations in America including Massachusetts New Jersey and Rhode Island. He argues that because factories in Great Britain are already as cost efficient as they can be; only additional technical advancement could improve their economies. By contrast he felt that American factories could improve their cost structure without significant investment by managing them a little differently. Sabin 51049 John Niven hardcover books

Sacred poems and hymns for public and private devotion.
New York: D. Appleton & Co. 1854. 12mo. lvi 390 pp. 5 ff. <br><br>Sole edition of these hymns without the music. James Montgomery 17771854 wrote these hymns possibly while in residence at Sheffield England "where he had come to be accounted a local hero and grew more and more in the respect of his fellow-townsmen by his exemplary life and activity in furthering every good work whether philanthropic or religious." DNB asserts that Montgomery was as a poet "only eminent in descriptive passages for which he is usually indebted to books rather than his own observation of nature. . . . On the whole he may be characterised as something less than a genius and something more than a mediocrity. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â NSTC 2M33990. Publisher's red cloth.
