[HUMPHREYS, Henry Noel]
The Illuminated Calendar and Home Diary for 1846. From the "Hours" of the Duke of Anjou King of Sicily and Jerusalem. Now in the Bibliotheque Royale Paris
London: Longman and Co. 1846. Narrow 4to. Unpaginated 60 pp. Complete re-cased sympathetically. Light cloth blocked in gilt blue and red to upper board and in blind to lower. All edges gilt. Marks heavier to lower board though also present with rubbing to edges of upper board and light wear to corners. Short closed tear to ffep and very minor splitting to the front endpapers. Foxing mostly around edges of leaves. Beautifully decorated pages hand coloured with 3 pages per month. The manuscript from which the illuminated calendar for 1846 is reproduced was probably produced in 1380 and has been selected here as it offers a beautiful example of a style of art very different from that of the "hours" of Ann of Brittany which formed the calendar for 1845. The work opens with a preface followed by a 4-page history of the House of Anjou with some remarks on their patronage of illuminators. Humphreys was a master of illumination in the Victorian age. 28cms tall 19.5 cms wide. . Very Good. Gilt Decorated Cloth. 1846. Longman and Co. 1846 hardcover

[LABOR - STEEL WORKERS / ALABAMA] MITCH, William and Noel R Beddow
Report of . Steel Workers Organizing Committee District No. 3 to the Second S.W.O.C. Convention. Fairfield Alabama September 7 and 8 1940
Fairfield: S.W.O.C. District No. 3 1940. First Edition. Mimeographed side-stapled sheets 11" x 8-1/2"; 6pp; printed recto-only. Text toned with chips to extremities; but of rust to staples; Good and sound. Ink signature of a "Dolph Mosley / Fairfield" to front cover. Report to the second annual convention of the S.W.O.C. documenting the union's successes in the southern states during its first year of existence and as well as union-busting activities which as might be imagined were rampant throughout the south during this period especially against a C.I.O.-affiliated union with a reputation for radicalism and a racial integration. A locus of anti-labor sentiment appears to have been the industrial community of Gadsden Alabama where the authors document numerous instances of direct threats against steelworkers including some that were racially motivated. Rare; as in our experience is most southern steelworkers material from this period. S.W.O.C. District No. 3 unknown

Translation from the German of Richard Parkinson's scarce work on the Bismarck Archipelago first published in 1907. This recently discovered typescript by translator and Rabaul resident Noel C. Barry is based on the second edition published in 1926. <br> <br>Barry began work on his translation in the 1920s after returning from service in WWI and completed it in the 1940s before War again intervened. The scholarly edition by John Dennison and J. Peter White of Parkinson's original work published in 1997 and online in 2010 by Sydney University made note of Barry's work observing "For many people this Barry translation became the sole avenue into Parkinson’s book." <br> <br>This copy with an early New Guinea provenance is from the collection of R.

[Noel Coward, Esme Wynne Tyson]
A GIFT FROM NOEL COWARD - ANNOTATED BY Esmé Wynne-Tyson's The Writers' and Artists' Year-Book 1919. A Directory for Writers Artists and Photographers.
London: A & C Black Ltd 1919. Esmé Wynne-Tyson's copy containing a detailed manuscript list of her early publications. The year-book was given and inscribed to her by Noël Coward using his nickname of the time in black ink to the head of the preface "To Leette Mother / with appropriate affection / Poj / 29/6/19". To the rear of the book is a blank table across nine pages designed for writers to record the progress of their manuscripts through the publication process title where sent when sent returned or accepted payment which has been fully and densely completed by Wynne-Tyson in ink and pencil recording approximately 100 pieces penned by her and successfully published during 1920-1921 - her own little bibliography. These largely compose pieces for newspapers and periodicals covering a wide range of subjects although with a focus on short stories "Lady of White Peacocks" "On the Bus" "The Moon is a Penny" comment pieces "The Art of Wifehood" "Cultivating a Personality" "Truth About the Stage Child Actress" "The Superstitious Sex" "Don'ts for Present Giving" and tales for children "Prince Yara or The Ivory Tower" "The Christmas Fairy". Elsewhere in the book Wynne-Tyson has added pencil lines besides the details of periodicals which she presumably thought suitable for submitting her work jotted down two publisher's addresses along with a list of story titles and inserted a pithy comment on the title page: "Art for Commerce's Sake". Also loosely laid in is a later publisher's compliments slip from William Heinemann dated 30.10.67 on which Wynne-Tyson has typed a brief curiously spikey review of Coward's 1967 book of verse Not Yet the Dodo: "Attaining a new shallowness. The Master has not even learned how not to use punctuation. At least his early books of verses achieved their aim in that they failed to amuse a Muse of current acclaim and pleased that lady's critics. Not Yet the Dodo will not even impress the admirers of N.C's technique. Is this the same hand that wrote the Three Quartets and Brief Encounter It is impossible to read most of these verses without the beat of The Stately Homes of England constantly intruding over the shoulder". Esmé Wynne-Tyson 1898-1972 began her career as an actress performing in the West End from childhood until her early twenties. During this period she became a close friend and confidant of Noël Coward with their friendship for a time forming the most important in Coward's life. In her teens she began to write plays often in collaboration with Coward including a series of shorts under the joint pen-name "Esnomel". Following the First World War she became a Christian Scientist abandoned her stage career and increasingly turned to writing both fiction including numerous novels and non-fiction journalism. Frequently penned in collaboration with J. D. Beresford much of this served to promote pacifism vegetarianism and the numerous other humanitarian causes in which she deeply believed. The present book an indispensable guide for writers to the various publishers journals magazines newspapers and literary agents in Britain the USA and elsewhere was gifted by Coward during the course of the pair's intimate friendship. Signed "Poj" the nickname he used when the pair conversed it was perhaps presented as an act of encouragement when Wynne-Tyson was just beginning to find her literary feet. It certainly reveals that she experienced significant early success in her new endeavours earning £22. 6s from her writing in 1920 and £162. 3s. 4d. in 1921. DESCRIPTION: Publisher's original red cloth with titles in black to the upper board and spine. 12pp. of publisher's advertisements to the front and rear. A very good copy the binding square and secure with a touch of cracking to the hinges a little marking to the boards and toning to the spine. The contents with the odd mark to page margins are otherwise in very good order.
