[Brooklyn Bridge Construction] Roebling, Washington & Robert B Talfor
Work in Progress on the Brooklyn Pier of the East River Bridge W. A. Roebling Eng'r". Albumen photograph with 3 Bridge Terminal albumen images
Greenpoint NY 1869. Scarce large albumen prints of the beginning of the construction of the iconic Brooklyn Bridge the most daring engineering feat of its time. The images are held by the Museum of the City of New York but not by the Brooklyn Museum or Brooklyn Public Library. <br /> <br /> Showing construction of the bridge an object of fascination for the public although newspaper editorials scoffed at the enormous undertaking. The Talfor view is taken from the Brooklyn side looking toward Manhattan across the East River with a massive pile of rocks in the forming the base of the pier. In the foreground wooden hoists frame the foundation and temporary construction shacks surround it. In the middle ground lies the East River and tall -masted ships can be seen at anchor on the Manhattan side.<br /> <br /> Robert B. Talfor is known for the very rare 'Photographic Views of Red River Raft' of 1873. The 113 hand colored photographs measuring 9 x 7" document the landscape and the lives of the crews working on this massive project to remove the thousand year old log jam which blocked the Red River in Louisiana. The lot sold for $93750 in February 2018. <br /> <br /> During the Civil War Talfor was a topographic engineer who mapped out battlefields. The maps are listed on OCLC. After the war he founded a photography studio in Greenpoint Brooklyn. Curtain's Greenpoint Directory of 1868/9 records him in Brooklyn as follows: Talfor Robert B. photographs Washington c Greenpoint Ave h. Eagle.<br /> <br /> By the early 1870s Talfor was in Louisiana taking the striking images of the Red River Raft project. <br /> <br /> The Talfor albumen photograph: 16 x 10 1/2" laid down on board 19 x 14 1/4". Title printed below the image with "East River Bridge" in an elaborate type font. Edges of board rubbed corners slightly chipped. Photograph with a few small marks at lower edge outside image. Period note on verso "Which do you put first ditto faces glass". Possibly a window display note<br /> <br /> with 3 additional large albumen photographs of the terminal buildings under construction at each end of the Brooklyn Bridge. These massive multistory shed-like structures were also called terminal sheds; here commuters embarked and disembarked to take other mass transit. <br /> <br /> Two of the images appear to be the Manhattan terminal building at Park Row under construction because tall buildings surround the cast iron structure and tram lines are visible in the road. These two images depict the terminal at the very beginning of construction a close up of the steel outer shell with workers in the foreground and standing on the roof ridge and the finished building with city dwellers passing on the sidewalk below. One is "N.Y. Station East River Bridge." ca. 1875 according to the Museum of the City of New York website.<br /> <br /> The third albumen likely shows the Brooklyn terminal building under construction as the surrounding area is not as developed as the Manhattan side. Two men stand in the foreground of the half completed steel structure.<br /> <br /> The three terminal building photographs: 8 1/2 x 6 1/4" mounted on board 14 x 11". Board dusty one scratch at lower edge of print. Second image 16 1/2 x 13" on board 20 1/4 x 16 1/4" board extensively chipped at edges one corner repaired on verso with archival tape; damp stains top edge of image. Third image 10 3/4 x 8 1/2" borders extensively scuffed & marked. Images are mounted in archival mounts. <br /> <br /> Scarce photographs of the very beginnings of the construction of the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. unknown

[G HAWKINS]. BRITANNIA BRIDGE
Britannia Tubular and Menai Suspension Bridges" showing train and shipping by and after G. Hawkins.
Hand-Coloured Lithograph heightened with gum arabic showing train and shipping by Day & Son mark on imprint to right Stephenson's Tubular Bridge over the Menai Straits was opened in 1850. Telford's road bridge in the background was built between 1820 and 1826.Francis Klingender in "Art and the Industrial Revolution" observes in the 1840s how artists moved away from depicting the railways themselves to the bridges which carried them. He writes of George Hawkins 1810-52 "his masterpieces are a series of tinted lithographs of the building of the Stephenson tubular bridges over the Conway and the Menai Strait." Here Hawkins shows how even in a remote and sublime location the world is busy with modern communication by train and shipping. Below the image are details of the bridges. unknown

London: Jonathan Cape 1922. Paperback. Very Good. FIRST LIMITED EDITION 296/ 750 INSCRIBED BY CLEMENCE HOUSMAN. 8vo incl. six woodcut plates by Stephen Bone. Original green cloth white paper title label lettered in black with green decorations to spine. Leading and bottom edges untrimmed. Pushing to spine ends. Edges toned top edge spotted. Inscribed in black ink to ffep: "To Norah from C. H. Christmas 1923" later ex libris of Alex. Bridge to front endpaper with his name and date 24.2. 1958 below in blue ink faint bands of offsetting to feps. Occasional fox spots spine cracked at pp. 32-3 with binding firm else clean and bright esp. Bone's six fine woodcut plates. In the original buff dust jacket lettered in black and reproducing Bone's woodcut 'Road' to front panel: price-clipped toned and foxed creased and nicked spine ends chipped; Bridge's pencil notes to ffep re. the inscription. Very good/ very good A tantalising as yet! unsupported association copy of the attractive limited edition George Bourne's familial farming memoir illustrated with six sympathetic woodcuts by Stephen Bone with an inscription ascribed to fellow woodcut artist author and suffragette Clemence Housman supposedly gifting it to the prolific and prolifically censored Irish novelist Norah Hoult: "To Norah from C. H. Christmas 1923"; according to a PO note "Alan Hancox the Cheltenham-based antiquarian bookseller who sold this to me says the inscription on the endpaper is by Clemence Housman. to Norah Hoult". Credibly in Housman's hand in 1923 the year of inscription the retiring artist and author would have been 62 and living briefly in Hampshire with her brother Laurence en route to their final home in Street from London; while her own novels and work for the Suffrage Atelier was behind her Housman was still producing wood engraving of her brother's drawings to illustrate his books with 1922 seeing Jonathan Cape issue three volumes of fairy stories and Christian fantasies on which the siblings collaborated. The significantly younger Hoult 1898–1984 had recently moved to London and was writing for a range of publications including Time and Tide the Telegraph and Pearson's Magazine; her first book Poor Women wouldn't appear for another five years. It's possible that Housman and Hoult may have met through literary circles and it seems likely that they would have been sympathetic to each other. Hoult would go on to nurture a close cross-generational friendship with her neighbour in wartime Kensington the novelist and suffragist Violet Hunt on whom she based her protagonist Claire in her 1944 novel of memory loss There Were No Windows. Alex. Bridge was a Tragara Press collector and correspondent of its founder Alan Anderson. With thanks to Elizabeth Crawford. Jonathan Cape paperback

[RAILROAD BRIDGE BUILDING -- PHOTO ARCHIVE]. [REMINGTON, Franklyn, JARRETT, Edwin, MORAN, Daniel E, BROWN, Louis L & DOTY, John
Complete set of pictures of Lower Bridge 1928 1929 1930. . . A terrific company photo archive composed of 136 original silver gelatin images documenting the construction of the new double-track Lower Maumee River Bridge for the Toledo Terminal Railway in Toledo Ohio. These images show the removal of the original single-track bridge introduction of the 353 foot long swing span including a centralized control switch machine operating the plunges constructions of coffer dams stone piers installing spans and much more.
Pittsburgh PA New York NY & Toledo OH: The Foundation Company 115 Broadway 1927-1930. Oblong 4to. With 136 linen-backed silver gelatin photographs w/ smaller images mounted 3 to a leaf all w/ linen hinges at gutter margin; including 107 sized 3 x 5.75 in. many w/ text w/in the negative several w/ manuscript descriptions in ink on versos 6 sized 4.75 x 6.75 in. w/ photographer’s stamp for Simmons-Boardman Publishing Co. on verso 23 sized 8 x 10 in. nearly all w/ detailed ink manuscript notes w/in lower parts of negatives many w/ dates in the negative in lower fore-edge and negative numbers manuscript pencil notes of the Northland Studios on verso. All bound w/ sliding metal Acco-fastener at gutter margin manuscript title on front cover of thick paper preserved in the original file folder toning edgewear tears & creases still VG exemplar w/ mimeograph instructions mounted inside front flap detailing that these were to be returned to the Chief Clerk of the Roadway Dept. This amazing photo archive chronicles the bridge removal and construction coffer dam building foundation work and construction project on the Lower Maumee River Bridge for the Toledo Terminal Railroad by The Foundation Company of Pittsburgh & New York. The Toledo Terminal Railroad was completed in 1903 and at one time owned by most of the major railroads that passed through Toledo forming a loop around the city providing an essential link to all of the industrial factories around the city. The Lower Maumee River Bridge was originally erected in 1902-1903 as a single track truss bridge but by the Roaring 20s needed a major upgrade to double-track. These images show in reverse order the construction of additional piers building of coffer dams massive cranes installed to remove the old trusses and install new trusses as well as build the swing span. Along with photos of the control systems the entire intricate process of removing the original single span and installing the double-track trusses is depicted as well as the new swing span in operation. The Foundation Co. was founded in 1900 by Remington Jarrett and Moran and grew rapidly in the opening decades of the 20th century often securing numerous large projects including the building of several dams on the Ohio River to offset flooding railroad bridges and more. It should be noted that the MichiganRailroad project Bridge Hunter and several other references list this still existing and operational railroad bridge as having been constructed in 1902-1903 as double-track but these images clearly show the massive three-year project replacing the original from 1927-1930.

[Texas]: [Railroads]: [Brazos Iron Bridge Company]
Manuscript Document Relating to the Transfer of Shares in the Brazos Iron Bridge Company Accompanied by Thirteen Receipts for Transfer of Shares
Galveston Tx 1869. Very good. 2pp. on a single folded folio sheet of lined paper with integral blank plus fourteen partially-printed receipts completed in manuscript. Minor dust-soiling creasing and edge wear. A post-Civil War manuscript agreement from Texas with the signatures of twenty-six investors transferring their stock in the Brazos Iron Bridge Company to John Sealy of the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway Company. Additionally the document is noted and signed on the verso by Sealy transferring those same shares to Thomas W. Peirce. The document is accompanied by fourteen receipts for installment payments on capital stock purchased in the Brazos Iron Bridge Company some of which relates directly to the larger transfer agreement. The Brazos Iron Bridge Company was organized in 1867. Its mission was to construct a railway bridge across the Brazos River. The bridge completed in July 1869 was purchased by the Buffalo Bayou Brazos and Colorado Railway later known as the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway Company. When the dust settled on the various transactions among the shareholders John Sealy owned a one-eighth interest in the railway company. Sealy moved from Pennsylvania to Galveston in 1846 and became an important early Galveston merchant real estate investor and railroad magnate. unknown

[TOWER BRIDGE TOY].
THE TOWER BRIDGE OF LONDON.
<i>Consisting of 50 pressed card pieces of 52 lacking two small tie pieces and a few finials now broken away together with a small strip of pegs and a printed line drawing of the bridge and brief yet adequate instructions ; contained in the original box 25 x 35 x 1.5 cm the lid with a large decorative title label of the completed bridge with various boats milling around the 'Port of London'.</i><br /><br /><br />An unusual and perhaps unique example of an embossed card construction toy marketed to coincide with the opening of the then new Tower Bridge.<br /><br />The new bridge was considered something of an eighth wonder the engineering combining a bascule operated drawbridge together with a suspension bridge all disguised under an elaborate gothic exterior that was supposed to blend in with but actually dwarfs the Tower of London. Not the easiest design to translate into a construction kit but the anonymous makers evidently used the plans and elevations of the design as shown in contemporary engineering journals. Some modifications have had to be made in order to produce a toy that balanced the decorative gothic features and engineering accuracy into practical design. <br /><br />The expectation would be that once the model was built it would after a decent time be thrown away however the owner of this example has carefully disassemble the bridge and preserved it with the original box. When constructed the toy bridge measures 127 cm or 4 feet long and 29 cm or just under a foot in height. <br /><br />We have not met with any other example.<br />

Albany Bridge Case
THE POWER OF THE STATES TO BRIDGE THEIR NAVIGABLE WATERS. ARGUMENT OF NICHOLAS HILL IN THE ALBANY BRIDGE CASE BEFORE THE UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT HELD AT THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN SEPTEMBER 1858
Albany: Weed Parsons & Company Printers 1858. 48pp. Disbound bit of blank edge chipping Good. <br/><br/> This pamphlet prints Hill's argument in a significant constitutional case. One Coleman sought to enjoin the Hudson River Bridge Company from building a bridge over the Hudson at Albany; a New York statute permitted the construction. The issue was whether a State could authorize the erection of a bridge over navigable rivers of the United States. Defending the statute Hill says the real party in interest is the City of Troy which it fears would be competitively disadvantaged by the bridge. "And now comes Troy-- a city distinguished chiefly for the favors she has received and is constantly asking at the hands of the State-- and pointing to her local interests which have prospered under state patronage asks you to interdict an exercise of sovereign power prompted by state necessity." <br/> Hill argues that New York's authority is not hindered by Congress's constitutional power to regulate commerce and navigable waters. The Circuit Court which included Justice Miller of the U.S. Supreme Court agreed and dismissed the complaint. On appeal the Supreme Court divided 3-3 see 69 U.S. 403 1864; the tie vote rendered the Circuit Court's decision a final judgment. <br/>FIRST EDITION. II Harv. Law Cat. 1189. Sabin 31850n.
