ALLENTOWN PENNSYLVANIA USS TENNESSEE. Good. 1913. On offer is an excellent very detailed original 5-year diary handwritten by a Lehigh University female student who appears to be from an affluent family. Margaret Shimer is an 18 year old girl living in Allentown Pennsylvania. Daughter of a well-to-do family she enjoys a very comfortable life during the years of WWI. In high school when the diary begins her entries are full of remarks about social activities and friends. With her mother she enjoys shopping for dresses hats and such meeting friends and going dancing. From context we learn that she attends a local post-secondary institution while unnamed she refers to Professor Hughes and we note a Professor Hughes at Lehigh University at that time and geographically it makes a near conclusive case 'Asked Prof. Hughes if he would sign my degree and he said he would .' Feb 18 1915 There are entries referring to her studies: Poetry test without studying for it June 6 1913 American Essayists exam .

MARY or MARGARET DISCON [?]
1922 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY DESCRIBING A DAY SPENT TRAVELING AND VISITING A VILLAGE IN SINGAPORE NEAR SARIBUE DOLOK BY AN UNUSUALLY OBSERVANT AND INTREPID BRITISH WOMAN
KAMPONG INDONESIA SINGAPORE 1922. On offer is a super original 1922 manuscript diary of a woman who we believe is named Margaret or Mary Discon. While she has not identified herself she does seem to refer to herself at some point in the third person. The diary describes her time spent in Kampong Singapore near Saribue Dolok. Using 8½ x 14 inch sheets of paper folded but loose she describes her time over 17 pages with some photos as titled: "A Day at _____gale." While the first part of the place name is difficult to read we are sure that local researchers and historians will no doubt uncover the location especially given the detailed clues leading up to the spot. Here are some snippets: "It was with gay hearts that we sat in the lamplight making the best breakfast we could with nerves thrilling in anticipation of the days jaunt while the boy and his wife saw to the storing of baskets of provisions; lemons soda waters etc. etc. We stepped into the car as the sun was lighting the east and a cool breeze making coats very necessary. Our days outing had been looked forward to for weeks and the visit of a fellow passenger brought the journey to completion. The jungle sounds were ceasing and domestic animals of all specimens were beginning to stir. First we went through rubber then a long street of palm shaded road through a struggling and picturesque Kampong
." Their car gets stuck in the mud and they have to have the village people dig them out: "
.we reached Saribue Dolok which seemed to consist solely of a large store and a missionary's house but they usually have been native Kampong's hidden in the hollows here and there for we saw numerous parties of Balaks silently following each other to the market in Indian file
." They are now on their way to a volcano. Also describes the natives clothing. Back to Kampong. "The Kampong of Harring all lies just above the shore guarded by banyan trees. The rest house is a pleasant little bungalow provided by the Dutch government for visiting officials and lent for a small fee to any traveler. Here we found contrary to repost that a well supplied table was provided
.We crossed a small stream the stream was small but gully was broad by a bridge consisting of two thin tree trunks on one side of which was a low rattan rope which gave us help and hardly any confidence
." They finally board a boat and she mentions how the crowds of people started gathering to watch them and has a photo showing just this scene. They finally return to the rest house. The diary pages were folded actually misfolded and the edges of the pages are a bit brittle and chipped with some little loss but overall Fair. . Fair. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Manuscript. hardcover

MARY POTTS
1849 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT TREASURE OF GENEALOGY AND LOCAL HISTORY OF EARLY SPRINGFIELD MISSOURI
SPRINGFIELD MISSOURI MO. Good. 1849. On offer is an original intriguing soft leather covered notebook dated 1849 used as personal journal handwritten by Mary Potts a Quaker woman we believe from Springfield Missouri. The book has an 1849 'Almanac' being a simple monthly calendar on the inside front cover and a nice lithograph of a merchant ship and cargo on the back inside cover. Most curious and very detailed are the segments of this journal: 'Some account of my friends & acquaintance Marriage Engagements'; 'Young Married Women with whom I am Acquainted'; 'The Children of Those Whom I know'; 'Young Persons Deceased Schoolmates Cousins or friends'; 'Elderly Relatives or Friends Whom I have known deceased'. Over 44 pages our author notes in specific detail that will impress local historians and collectors or anyone doing genealogy studies or searching for history regarding the State of Missouri given the dozens and dozens of names of family friends schoolmates and acquaintances together with dates of engagements marriages births or deaths. She gives the dates of their death and sometimes writes something personal about them occasionally giving her opinion as to whether she believes they will go to heaven or not. There are also references to causes of death as "disaster of the heart" and "disaster of the brain"; a great number of people had died from "pulmonary consumption" as tuberculosis or "TB" was referred to in those days. There are many references to her "religious society" "monthly meeting district" and "yearly meetings". She is a very religious peppering the entries with spiritual poems and scriptures in the diary amongst the notes of births and deaths. Here is an example of an entry: "9 mo 1842 William M. Hartshorne son of Dr. Hartshorne on board the schooner "Seminole" supposed to have been wrecked in a storm being known to have sailed from Havana and to have touched at Key West and not afterward been heard of." One of her poems: "Pilgrim heavenward faint and weary With the trials of the day; Few alas! The lights to cheer them As they walked the narrow way. Though the archer filled his quiver Harmless are his shafts at length; Though they surely grieved thee even Hath thy bow abode in strength. Now thy pilgrimage is ended Mourner oh how sweet thy rest And the sound of welcome blended With the anthems of the blest."

MARY REDMAYNE
THE 1944 - 1949 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF MARY REDMAYNE A YOUNG BRITISH GIRL OF ASHTON ON RIBBLE SEES CHURCHILL
Preston Lancashire England Great Britain UK. Good. 1944. Decorative Cloth. On offer is a super handwritten manuscript diary written by Mary Redmayne who was a 'girl next door' average teenage girl during the Second World War in Preston Lancashire in the small town of Ashton on Ribble. She was a dedicated diarist purchasing her new diary on Feb. 19 1944 and filling it up to date from the beginning of January obviously she took notes each day because every day is full from the beginning of the year with small daily details of life and continuing to fill it to the maximum in neat beautifully legible printing for the next five years. During that time she went from being a typical school girl writing the classes are "swotting" and we suspect skipping a lot of classes too but being successful in her levels to becoming a teacher for very young children as well as a dancer painter and Guide leader. She seems to have had lots of family in Ashton and surrounding area and we believe hat her brother's name Leonard Redmayne is very common in the area going back centuries.It is wonderful to read an unromanticized account of daily life in Britain for a teenaged girl in the midst of war. There is mention of taking gas masks to school a plane down near Cadley C and her father being on Fire Watch regularly but the majority of entries do not mention the war and show that even in the midst of tragedy and terror life goes on. Mary loved going to movies and mentions many by name along with her opinion of them and often seemed to get in trouble with her teachers because she did not mince words. A typical teenager. Some of the places mentioned in this diary include: Haslam Park Bletchley Wigan Bishops Startford London Radwinter Manchester Great Eccleston Blackpool Goosenargh Inglewhite Longridge and Grimsargh. Some of the people mentioned in the diary are Stotts J Loftus Miss Matthews Mr Charles Greehalghs Mona Spud and Jean D Royles Mrs. Preston Dorothy Allen Mrs Bolton and Parkinsons. In addition as shown in the scans there is a list at the back of the diary of her friends whom she mentioned in the diary regularly using their initials. The best way to give you a sense of what this girl's life was like is to quote from the diary: Went back to school. B.B. was awfully pleased about Pre. Got bulls-eye. Had teeth outh. Dad made vow. Teeth started to bleed. Bled all night. Bit a cork. Went in taxi to dentists. He plugged tooth which was bleeding. Had a sleep. Borrowed books from Pat which I read all night. Fire in room. Bought stuff for patrol bag. Began to make it. Mother stuffed curtains. Began to knit socks out of RAF scarf. Had blancmange for tea. Stood on Harris steps to see King and Queen. Did not speak. Got new Sonata. Swotted Geog. New Dress. June Kalina talked about her engagement to a "Yank". Braitch in bad temper because late. Got to report. went to see "Madonna of the Seven Moons." VG. Knitted. Settled about second-hand books. Had lecture on "dangerous objects" Began to make a frock. Went to see "This is the Army." Dec. 24 Sirens went 5:30-6:30. Fly bombs. Thud. Went to church and SS. Edyth wearing new blue coat. Went to Grays. Mum made row about Uncle Albert. Went to Joyces. Relations there. Went to our classifying houses. Announcement at 3pm that hostilities had ceased. Went errands. Went bike ride round Ribbleton through town. Watched tennis. Watched victory procession of show people. Went on Humpty bikes. Played tennis on Stanley Park. Went to Ice Show. Watched celebrations near town hall. What is striking to me is how matter-of-fact she is talking about the bombs and lectures on "dangerous objects" which suggests mines and unexploded ordnance and then carries on in the next sentence talking about new dresses going to church and the mundane daily routines. It is clear that war was a part of life for her and that she was accustomed to it having grown up with it. Her brother Leonard was in France and wrote home about a French girl near the end of the war but came home a couple of times during the course of the war so I am not sure what he was up to. She mentions the death of Roosevelt and sees Mr Churchill on his visit to Preston in June. She takes piano lessons and we believe that she is also teaching piano by the end of the diary. The diary is in good condition though the first few pages of January are taped in and the binding of the book has separated from the spine. However the binding is attached firmly to the diary pages and all the pages are accounted for and apart from the taped pages are firmly attached to each other. The binding strap is attached and the clasp to hold the diary closed still works. Every page is full so this is a treasure trove of information about daily life in Lancashire in the 1940's. ; Manuscript; 24mo - over 5" - 5¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF WWII WW2 UNITED KINGDOM BATTLE OF BRITAIN THE BLITZ HITLER GERMANY NAZIS BRITAIN ENGLAND HOMEFRONT WORLD WAR II HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY . hardcover

Masterman, Walter; Dust Jacket Design By E Mcknight Kauffer
2. L. O. " / 2Lo Dust Jacket Only No Book
London Uk: Gollancz 1928. 1st Edition 1st Printing. No Binding. No Book Included/Good. Dust Jackt Only For First Edition Gollancz 1928. Would Be Near Fine No Wear Or Tear But A Little Pinkish Dampstaining To Flaps And Rear Panel. Se Wikipedia: Edward Mcknight Kauffer 1890 -1954 Was An American Artist And Graphic Designer Who Lived For Much Of His Life In The United Kingdom. He Worked Mainly In Poster Art But Was Also Active As A Painter Book Illustrator And Theatre Designer. Edward Leland Kauffer Was Born On 14 December 1890 In Great Falls Montana. By 1910 He Had Moved To San Francisco Working As A Bookseller And Studying Art At The California School Of Design From 1910 To 1912. At Around This Time Professor Joseph Mcknight Of The University Of Utah Became Aware Of Kauffer's Work Sponsored Him And Paid To Send Him To Paris For Further Study. In Gratitude Kauffer Took His Sponsor's Name As A Middle Name. Kauffer Stopped In Chicago For Six Months In 1912/1913 And Studied At The Art Institute Of Chicago. While There He Witnessed The Armory Show One Of The First Major Exhibitions To Introduce The Styles Of Modernism To American Viewers. This Likely Had A Major Impact On Kauffer Who Would Work In Many Of The Same Styles Throughout His Career. He Arrived In Paris In 1913 And Studied At The Académie Moderne Until 1914. In Paris In 1923 He Met The Textile Designer Marion Dorn 1896-1964 And Subsequently Lived With Her In London From Late 1923 To July 1940. They Married In 1950 And Moved To New York Until His Death In 1954. Kauffer Moved To London Upon The Start Of The First World War And Remained There For Most Of His Career. He Was Briefly Associated With Robert Bevan's Cumberland Market Group And Had A One-Man Show At The Omega Workshops. In Brighton On The South Coast He Designed A "Novel" Mural For The Lobby Of Embassy Court A Modernist Block Of Flats Designed By Wells Coates In 1935. The Mural Consisted Of "Monochrome Photographs . Printed Directly On To A Light-Sensitive Cellulose Coating". Kauffer May Be Best Known For The 140 Posters That He Produced For London Underground And Later London Transport. The Posters Span Many Styles: Many Show Abstract Influences Including Futurism Cubism And Vorticism; Others Evoke Impressionist Influences Such As Japanese Woodcuts. He Created Posters For Shell Oil The Great Western Railway And Other Commercial Clients And Also Illustrated Books And Book Covers. Later He Also Became Interested In Textiles Interior Design And Theatrical Design. He Returned To New York City In 1940 At The Beginning Of The Second World War And Tried To Find Work In Advertising. He Struggled In The More Competitive Atmosphere Until He Was Approached To Do A Series Of Posters For American Airlines In 1947. American Airlines Remained His Primary Client Until His Death In 1954. <br/> <br/> Gollancz unknown
