McNUTT, Paul V (1891-1955)
Signed Typescript
This Indiana attorney and politician served as that state's democratic 34th governor 1933-37 before being named High Commissioner to the Philippines 1937-39 and 1945-46 and then first U.S. ambassador to that newly-independent nation 1946-47; he was briefly considered a serious presidential contender in 1940. Signed original typescript 7pp 8" X 10½" Cleveland OH 30 July 1939. Very good. Faint age toning and two faint horizontal folds; staple hole at upper left well away from text; lacks page 5 of 8. Titled "Address by Hon. Paul V. McNutt / International Peace Day World's Poultry Congress / Cleveland Ohio Sunday July 30 1939" this double-spaced typescript contains McNutt's thoughts on the United State's pre-Pearl Harbor Day semi-isolationist attitudes towards peacekeeping in those tumultuous days. In part: "The United States is not responsible for international settlements outside the New World; and even less for the methods by which any nation chooses to govern itself. We do have an interest however first that other countries shall not attempt to force their political doctrines on us; second that in solving their difficulties they do not precipitate the world into a war which necessarily will affect the United States economically if indeed we can avoid being embroiled in actual military conflict." McNutt signs boldly and in full in black ink at the conclusion. Accompanied by a superb 9" X 7" black and white glossy news agency photograph International News Photos depicting McNutt at a formal banquet. Original mimeographed paper label affixed to verso captions this image "Xmas Party Manila 1938" and describes it as "President Eisenhower who was Gen. Douglas MacArthur's chief of staff in the Philippines from 1935-40 is shown at a Christmas party in 1938 with other American dignitaries. General then Major Eisenhower Mrs. MacArthur Paul McNutt High Commissioner of the Islands; Mrs. Eisenhower and Gen. MacArthur military advisor on the islands." Great image published here in 1955 showing McNutt as he appeared around the time he delivered this typescript speech. Most unusual in this format -- whether this is the actual typescript from which McNutt read this speech is not known but it is an actual typescript and not a mimeographed copy for press distribution. unknown

McPHATTER, Clyde (1933-72)
Autograph Quotation Signed / Inscribed Photograph Signed
This legendary R & B tenor hit the charts in the mid-50s with the Drifters and such hits as "Money Honey" "Such a Night" and "Honey Love" before going solo. Two items: First an AQS 1p irregularly-trimmed roughly rectangular 8" X 4½" n.p. n.d. January 1958. Very good. Yellowed tape stain at each corner and two more small tape stains along right edge touching slightly upon a couple of words. Curious free verse poem or song lyrics -- whether to one of McPhatter's published songs is uncertain. "I want to walk in the shadow of your arms" it begins. "I want to live by the touch of your lips. I want to be in the River with you while the sea's calm I want to live and love I don't want to miss. I want to live with a love that's divine I want to be with you and give you all my love. I want to say that you are mine. I want to ask faith from the one above." Boldly signed at the conclusion. An unheard-of McPhatter rarity quite intriguing and exceedingly scarce -- and worthy of further research. Second an IPS 8" X 10" n.p. n.d. Very good. Faint yellow tape stain at each corner. Classy handsome half-length glossy portrait of a young smiling McPhatter in suit and tie inscribed large and bold in thick black marker at the upper right "To / 'Donald' / ALL the best / ALL the time! / Clyde McPhatter." Very choice and very scarce. McPhatter who suffered from alcoholism died of a heart attack at age 39 making his autograph material quite uncommon. unknown

McWilliam, Robert
An Essay on the Origin and Operation of the Dry Rot with a view to it's prevention or cure. To which are annexed suggestions on the cultivation of forest trees and an abstract of the several forest laws from the reign of Canute to the present time.
59 Holborn London: J. Taylor 1818. Illustrated with three engraved plates large quarto pp xx 420 edges untrimmed some foxing and marking throughout including the plates original boards slightly worn a later paper spine with the rather worn original paper label laid down both paste-down endpapers wrinkled and lifting. Apart from the foxing this is a stunning copy close to it's original state wide-margined and unpressed. With the errata slip and directions to the binder at the rear. The subscriber's list accounts for 207 copies. There is an early London bookbinder's ticket on the front endpaper - H. Richards Great Castle Street Cavendish Square - and a manuscript note next to it "No 852" : might this suggest that there were a thousand copies printed Little is known of the author an architect and surveyor of Furnivals Inn. His wife inherited half of her father's estate and the development of North Street in London was pursued by the Scottish-born McWilliam. No buildings have hitherto been ascribed to him apart from the handsome classically detailed terrace that is now Nos 2753 Northdown Street which was built in 1839 by McWilliam who had plans in place for developing the entire estate by the time of his death in December 1842. He was a regular exhibitor at the Royal Academy and his only public ation seems to be this one dedicated to the 4th Duke of Gordon and subscribed for widely among members of the architectural profession. He became a Justice of the Peace for Middlesex towards the end of his life. First Edition. Cloth-backed boards. Very Good. J. Taylor Hardcover
