Clark, H. Jackson.
GLASS PLATES & WAGON RUTS. Images of the Southwest by Lisle Updike and William Pennington.
pp. xiii, 200. Profusely illustrated with photographs of Native Americans. Small 4to. Original full cloth binding. Original dust jacket. "In the early years of the 20th century, William Pennington and Lisle Updike roamed the Four Corners area of Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona, photographing people and landscapes. They traveled on horseback, by narrow gauge railroad, horse-drawn wagon, and/or Model T Fords - sometimes working together from the studio they shared in Durango, sometimes working alone. They went to mining camps in the nearby rugged San Juan Mountains as well as to the Navajo, Jicarilla, Apache, Acoma, and Zuni Indian reservations. What they preserved in their photographs takes the viewer back to a vanished era, but exquisitely preserves a sense of both time and place.Now, for the first time, H. Jackson Clark has collected the entire corpus of Pennington and Updike"s wonderful images in Glass Plates & Wagon Ruts. Taken together, these photographs - highly valued and eagerly sought by collectors - comprise a provocative visual record of the southwest that is of interest to anybody who loves this beautiful country and its colorful past." Hardbound. Very Good+. W101

Forest, Ellen [pseud of Lucy Mary Franssen].
WESTERSCHE HEARTS IN OOSTERSCHE TEMPLES.
203 p. + Photo illustrations. Foxed. Large 8vo. 230 mm. Original full cloth binding; somewhat worn. Ellen Forest was a pseudonym of the mythologist and writer Lucy Mary Franssen (1878-1959). She published earlier as Lucy d'Audretsch. She was initially married to art dealer Herman d'Audretsch. After their separation she married the Japanologist Prof. J.L. Pierson. This book is an account in Dutch of a journey from Europe, through Egypt to Southeast Asia (Vietnam; Thailand; Cambodia; Angkor Wat; etc.). It comes from the period when she and her husband were friends with Mussolini, and were committed to Italian fascism. Our facility with the Dutch language is poor, but we are sure that her political leanings come out in this curious personal account of travel. NW17

Williams College.
WILLIAMS CLASS OF 1864.
pp. 44 + Large glossy print frontis photograph of 13 men at their 25th reunion. 8vo. 220 mm. Disbound. Original printed front wrap present. The owner of this scarce pamphlet was Thomas S. McClelland, a prominent lawyer in Chicago. Born in PA, he graduated Williams in 1864, and almost immediately joined the Union Army. Called "Honest Tom" by his classmastes, he was over 6' tall "straight as an Indian, and almost as swarthy." He missed the reunion, and does not appear in the photograph. Those that do are identified on p. 4. In the photo they appear to be a substanial and quietly prosperous group. Most are dressed in frock coats, holding their top hats and bowlers. Williams College is a private liberal arts college located in Williamstown, MA. It was established in 1793 with funds from the estate of Ephraim Williams, and was originally open only to men. Very scarce. Not recorded in OCLC. PA69

THE HUMAN FIGURE IN MOTION. Introduction by Professor Robert Taft.
pp. xvii, 94 plates of human figures in motion. Light age stain. Edges foxed. 4to. 280 mm. Original full cloth binding, rubbed. First reprint edition. Hardbound. Very good. Eadweard James Muybridge (1830-1904) was an English photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion and in motion-picture projection. He adopted the name Eadweard Muybridge, believing it to be the original Anglo-Saxon form of his name. He immigrated to the United States as a young man but remained obscure until 1868, when his large photographs of Yosemite Valley, California, made him world famous. Muybridge is known for his work on animal locomotion in 1877 and 1878, which used multiple cameras to capture motion in stop-action photographs, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip used in cinematography - Wiki.
