Elia: Essays Which Have Appeared Under that Signature in the London Magazine First and Second Series
Philadelphia: Carey Lea and Carey 1828. First American Edition First Printing. Original Boards. Very good. First American editions of both volumes and the first complete edition as the second volume was not published in England until 1833 the first American edition was unauthorized. The term "second edition" appears on the title page of volume I because the first edition had been published in London in 1823; all copies of the first American edition bear this "second edition" statement. Both volumes are in the original boards. Volume I is in blue unprinted boards with cream paper spine and spine label this appears to be a variant binding as most others we've seen were in yellow printed boards. Front outer joint partly cracked spine a bit cupped but an otherwise clean bright untrimmed copy; about very good. Volume II is very good or better in the publisher's yellow printed boards with red muslin spine and spine label. Mild wear to corners but a very sharp sound example. Occasional very light foxing to both volumes but much less so than usual. Both volumes bear the leather bookplates of Arthur M. Brown as well as another early 20th century bookplate. Volume I also has another bookplate and ownership signature both belonging to minor poet and Episcopal priest Charles West Thomson. It is likely that this set was married around the turn of the century. Housed in green cloth dust jackets with gilt spine titles and matching slipcases with green morocco edges. Very good. Hardcover. <br /> <br />The first collected editions of these much-loved essays by Charles Lamb which appeared in the London Magazine in the early 1820s. Those editions being highly ephemeral and difficult to obtain this partly pirated American edition represents the first reasonably obtainable complete edition of his collected essays. <br /> <br />Often found rebound or in rough condition this is an appealing set. <br /> <br/><br/> Carey, Lea and Carey hardcover

[Lamb, Lady Caroline]
Ada Reis A Tale
London: John Murray 1823 Three volumes bound into two. First edition first printing. Finely bound in quarter brown calf with marbled boards and spine lettered and elaborately decorated in gilt. Fine set with a tiny puncture and a creased lower corner to title page in Vol. I and ownership signatures in pencil to title pages. Overall a gorgeous and clean set. Lady Caroline Lamb's third novel Ada Reis follows the roguish title character who is sold into bondage at a young age and grows to be a hard-drinking and murderous young man. He later receives a prophecy from a sorcerer that he "shall be king in another land" and his illegitimate daughter Fiormonda "shall wear an imperial crown." In Lamb's introduction she writes that the book is the "simple narrative of what occurred to Ada Reis and his daughter that those who read may place the awful record in their hearts and learn to worship God and to be humble in themselves." The narrative is fictionally presented as a real manuscript that has been translated into English from Arabic Spanish and Inga. Lady Caroline Lamb 1785 - 1828 was a novelist best known for her debut work Glenarvon 1816 which caused a sensation when it was published. The book featured a title character based heavily on Lord Byron with whom Lamb had an intense affair with between March and August of 1812. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine.

I defective missing top half front hinge off; vol II neatly rebacked; endsheets of all three volumes slightly spotted. A good copy however with a contemporary provenance: from the libraries of Dowager Lady Vernon with her signature dated 1816 on each title page; and Edward Lord Suffield with his bookplate both likely acquaintances of Lamb and Byron. First edition. ii 295; ii 390; ii 322 pp. lacking half-titles. 3 vols. 12mo. Lady Caroline Lamb's notorious and deliriously written roman à clé to exact her revenge on Byron for her seduction and abandonment. When our protagonist Calantha encounters Ruthven Glenarvon i.e. Byron her helplessness is described thus:<br /> <br /> "The eye of the rattle-snake it has been said once fixed upon its victim overpowers it with terror and alarm: the bird thus charmed dares not attempt its escape; it sings its last sweet lay; flutters its little pinions in the air then falls like a shot before its destroyer unable to fly from his fascination. Calantha bowed therefore with the rest pierced to the heart at once by the maddening power that destroys alike the high and low; but she liked not the wily turn of his eye the contemptuous sneer of his curling lip the soft passionless tones of his voice .

An exceptional large albumen mounted photograph of the Steamer Ocean Wave sidewheeler still in drydock at J.H. Steffen’s shipyard on the Willamette River in July 1891 just prior to launching.
Portland OR & Ilwaco WA: Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. McAlpin & Lamb W. Morrison July 1891. Oblong albumen photo sized 9.5 x 7 in. mounted on cream-coloured studio board sized 8 x 10 in. slight curving still a superb exemplar from the library of from the library of Caroline Augusta Gray Kamm 1840-1932 noted socialite and philanthropist in Portland built home for poor women & girls with the YWCA and was daughter of PNW pioneer William H. Gray 1810-1889 who traveled to the Lapwai Mission in Lewiston ID in 1836 where he was the Nez Perce secular agent and she subsequently later married Jacob Kamm 1823-1912 pioneering Oregon steamship builder industrialist entrepreneur and co-owner/operator of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. This outstanding original albumen photo was issued as a promotion for the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. and the soon-to-be-launched Sidewheeler Ocean Wave. Designed by Jacob Kamm the Ocean Wave was 180 feet long 29 feet at the beam and depth of hold at 9 feet with a much larger deck which was cantilevered out to accommodate the side-wheeler configuration and grossed 725 tons. She was powered by two James Rees & Co. steam engines 24 foot sidewheels fitted with 10 foot planks over 10 feet long and capable of 18 miles per hour. She included enough state room accommodations for 115 passengers and berths for 75 more. Her first captain was Lester Bailey and the Ocean Wave was a vital link to the short narrow gauge railroad on the Long Beach Peninsula which transported vacationers from Portland to Ilwaco WA with a stop in Astoria. In 1897 Kamm’s co-owner of the IR &N maneuvered to lease out the Ocean Wave to the Columbia River & Puget Sound Navigation Co. “White Line†to compete with Kamm’s Vancouver Transportation Co. then operated on the Puget Sound from 1897 to 1899 and finally as a ferry operating in San Francisco Bay from 1899 to 1911 and was the first ferry placed in service by the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railway.

[MONTANA -- ALBUMEN SHEEP RANCHING PHOTO]. HAGEMAN, [Ernest O] & MOORE, [Albert M]
A very nice original boudoir-sized albumen photograph of a large sheep ranching operation in the Bitterroot Valley somewhere near Hamilton Montana at the very end of the 19th-Century.
Hamilton MT: Hageman & Moore Photographers ca. 1900. One oblong boudoir-sized albumen photograph 8 x 5 in. mounted on beige-coloured studio board sized 11 x 6.75 in. w/ photographer’s imprint stamped on verso minor age toning & slight soiling to fore-edges minor wear & rubbing to corners still VG bright sharp image. Sheep raising was actually introduced into Montana’s Bitterroot Valley by Catholic Missionary Father De Smet and over the 19th-Century often grew in concert with cattle raising with many ranches maintaining both herds. Following the disastrous Winter of 1886-1887 in which thousands of cattle died off sheep ranching became the predominant stock shipped into and out of Montana as they not only handled the Montana Winters well they cost much less to raise and wool was a significant commodity. Hageman 1872-1944 had settled in Montana in 1896 and started operating as a photographer in the Bitterroot Valley by 1898 later partnering with Moore 1869-1955 for a short time in a photo studio in 1890 before both went out on their own by 1891 with Hageman operating as photographer until his death and Moore going first to Missoula and then Los Angeles.
