One page about 500 words 11 x 8 1/2 inches. 1 vols. Connett on Early American Angling. A brief but interesting survey of fly fishing in the 1840s along the eastern seaboard from Boston to Philadelphia. Connett notes a number of specific locations and individuals and ends "We must remember that those were the days before Brown Trout or Rainbows were found in our eastern streams. I have always felt that the introduction of Brown Trout provided just the needed incentive for the introduction of the dry fly to this country as I have always found them to be the prime surface feeders of the trout family. But of course these oldtimers did some surface fishing with the many dropper flies --sometimes as many as three!--which they played on the surface." A LIVELY AND INFORMATIVE ARTICLE. unknown

Birch Reginald 1856 1943
Out for a Sleigh Ride
1 vols. pen and black ink on board signed lower right "Birch" 21 3/4 x 22. Matted; fine. 1 vols. pen and black ink on board signed lower right "Birch" 21 3/4 x 22" Fine Original Illustration by Reginald Birch. A typically fine and engaging turn of the century magazine illustration for which the artist was noted. Reginald Birch 1856-1943 was known as "The children's Gibson" because of the large number of children's stories he illustrated for St. Nicholas magazine. He also illustrated some 200 books most notably Little Lord Fauntleroy: his costuming of the boy set a style of dressing that a generation of otherwise masculine boys suffered through until the fashions changed. "His drawings" notes Reed "give the appearance of great spontaneity and directness resulting from his practice of using models only for his preliminary sketches and rendering the finished drawings freely from them."

Reeve and others. xiv 208 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. With 15 superb hand colored plates. Eric Parker in an 1930 edition of this book notes: "'Gamonia' is valuable not only for its rarity and charm . it is the first treatise devoted solely to the subject of pheasant rearing covert shooting and the management of woodlands for the special purpose of preserving game . We can see much of what is in Rawstorne's mind in the treatment of the subjects he has chosen for illustration: in the quiet ridicule of the unskilled in the hint of knowledge of how the thing could and should be done; in the cold and snow in which he likes to set his sportsmen seeking their quarry and in the serenity of sunlight in which in each drawing stands Penwortham his home."

First edition. 141 2 ads pp. 1 vols. Small 8vo. Fishing in Minnesota 1869. A series of letters on the glories of Minnesota fishing from this former Civil War officer to Gen. Francis E. Spinner 1802-1890 who served as Treasurer of the United States under Presidents Lincoln Johnson and Grant. First printed in Porter's Spirit of the Times to meet a growing post-war market of tourists and travelers eager to find the best fishing spots Gibbs' little book spread the word about the joys of fishing Minnesota's lakes and rivers. It has never been re-printed and is now rare on the market. "And many learned about Minnesota fishing in the late 1860s when ex-Civil War Officer Oliver Gibbs wrote a series of letters to General Spinner then United States treasurer that were printed in The Spirit of the Times and later collected into a volume called Lake Pepin Fish-Chowder . Railing against the 'pot fishers' who netted fish by the wagonload Gibbs promoted fishing with rod and reel" Sheehy. Great content and fine story-telling a neglected work from a formative time in American sport. Bruns G45 "Rare"; Phillips 135; Litchfield 46; Cf. Colleen J.
