Opening Ceremonies of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge - May 24 1883
New York: The Brooklyn Eagle Job Printing Department 1883. This is a unique book on the opening ceremonies for the brooklyn bridge. There is a great illustration of the bridge on the inside end page - covered with tissue paper. The recipient's name is embossed on the cover Agnes . Robertson - the only link I could find to an agnes robertson was to a famous British actress that appeared often in New york with many famous actors such as Fanny Kemble . Robertson's dates are 1833 to 1916 - which would fit in with this book of 1883. The cover of the book has gilt decorative borders and calligraphy type for the title and gilt around all edges. There is wear to the spine from opening and there is some separation of the book from the spine that is easily repairable. A great pice of history on the Bridge in a very nice looking book. I list it as in good condition with defects as noted above. 1st Edition. Full Decorative Black Leather. Good. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. The Brooklyn Eagle Job Printing Department Hardcover

1940s BUILDING MATERIALS PINE
Today's Idea House. New Views.New Pointers on increasing Home Comfort Convenience and Beauty with Ponderosa Pine Woodwork.
Chicago.: Ponderosa Pine Woodwork. Copyright 1945. Booklet black and white photo illustrations throughout 28pp 8 1/2 x 11 inches color pictorial cover wrappers. Light wear to covers soft bump to upper right corner pencil notation on single page mid section loose; otherwise good clean condition. A profusely illustrated booklet featuring doors windows storm sash and screens closets and more manufactured from ponderosa pine. In the Preface "Welcome to Today's Idea House" we are informed the manufacturer conceives "of doors windows and woodwork in terms of what they can DO to help you realize your ambition in the home you are about to build or remodel." In depicting home interiors the booklet captures a great deal more than the extensive variety of door and window designs available for it places these items in the context of room decor. Fashionable post-war interiors are pictured throughout the booklet. However without intending to do so an oxymoron is employed that reveals a serious hazard embedded in the various pine products: "today thanks to modern scientific research wood is better more lasting than ever! For today wood can be impregnated with chemicals to give it greater resistance to decay and change-producing fungi. Such treatment known as toxic preservation adds an extra measure of durability to wood's unequaled beauty endurance utility and economy." On the rear jacket the reader is informed that "More than any other of your possessions your home should express your individuality your tastes your preferences in living." Surely a homeowner with "preferences in living" could not be faulted for giving products enhanced through "toxic preservation" a wide berth. . Ponderosa Pine Woodwork. unknown
