Roosevelt Theodore
Typed Letter Signed "Theodore Roosevelt" to Dean Sage on the completion of his Winning the West
New York 1895. 1 p. typed on "President's Office Police Department City of New York" stationery with a few manuscript emendations and corrections. 4to 10 x 8 inches. Lower portion mounted onto rear pastedown of volume III of Roosevelt's Winning the West New York 1894 with volumes I 1889 & II 1889 included each with Dean Sage bookplate moderate wear to covers. 1 p. typed on "President's Office Police Department City of New York" stationery with a few manuscript emendations and corrections. 4to 10 x 8 inches. TR to Dean Sage tipped-in to Volume III. Roosevelt writes as President of the Board of Police Commissioners of New York to angling author Dean Sage: ". I am now striving with infinite pain and labor to finish the fourth volume. You can imagine how hard it is with all my other work. With the ending of this fourth volume I shall have to stop all attempts at historical writing until I go out of politics. You are right about there being no West for me this year either." The letter is included with the first three volumes in first edition of Winning the West. Dean Sage's contributions to angling literature are few in number but profoundly influential. His Ristigouche 1888 which draws upon his long experience fishing the river is one of the pinnacles of nineteenth century fishing book design and production. unknown

Poker Blackbridge John
The Complete Poker Player
New York: Advance Publishing Co 1875. First edition. viii 9-284 6 ads pp errata slip at p. 11. 8vo. Publisher's green cloth stamped in black and gilt. Title-page foxed newspaper clippings tipped on to endpapers and at pp. iii and 127 with offsetting previous owners' names to bottom-edge of text block and p. 11. First edition. viii 9-284 6 ads pp errata slip at p. 11. 8vo. Rare first edition of this foundational work on poker. It is along with Winterblossom's The Game of Draw Poker 1875 the earliest published work dedicated solely to poker. Blackbridge - described on the title as an attorney though the name is possibly a pseudonym - attempts to legitimize poker and gambling and gaming in general harmonizing it with Christian values and drawing comparisons to generally respected professions that trade in risk such as that of banker and insurance provider. Beyond the moralizing tone Blackbridge's work provides a technical and probabilistic discussion of the game and includes a section on "Probabilities at Draw-Poker" by Dr. Pole. The rules printed in Chapter XIX are adapted from Schenck's Rules and The American Hoyle. Blackbridge's book was reviewed in the 8 April 1875 edition of the New York Times the reviewer barely able to disguise his disgust with the game of poker though acknowledging the work's usefulness and completeness. A second edition was published in 1880 and a third in 1884. Rare - OCLC locates just one copy at Kent State University. Jessel 121; Horr 167; Hargrave p. 427 Advance Publishing Co unknown

Text planographed from typescript. 1 vols. 4to. Rare FDR Log: A Radio Message from Ernest Hemingway. A log of FDR's inspection cruise of naval bases in the British West Indies. The log is a detailed narrative of the President's activities and the progress of the ship he traveled on the Tuscaloosa. As was customary on these cruises Roosevelt combined sport fishing with his official duties. Opposite page 15 a fine portrait of FDR seated with rod in hand is entitled "The President trolls though Mona Passage." The text for 10 December reads: "At 1000 while proceeding through the Mona Passage sped was reduced to 7 knots while the President trolled from the stern. The water here was over 1500 feet deep and the president's decision to try his luck was based mainly on the contents of a radio message which he had received from Ernest Hemingway recommending the locality as one in which many big fish had been caught and suggesting the use of a feathered hook baited with a piece of pork rind. The President trolled for an hour or more without even a strike and so fishing operations were discontinued at 1130 following which speed was increased to 25 knots." In addition to highlights of official business the log records the fishing activities throughout the cruise Harry Hopkins hooks a 36 inch Grouper but as it was landed by Admiral Mcintire it was "not a legitimate catch for determining fishing honors two members of the party having handled the rod." This log identifies Maj. Gen. Edwin L Watson FDR's military aide as "Pa" and so his authorship of an earlier log can now be assigned. We have never seen this log. The only other copy recorded is in the Library of Congress. Halter p. 192 records only Library of Congress copy unknown
