; illustrated by Joe Maneely, Robert Q Sale, Gene Colan, Art Peddy, Mort Lawrence, Werner Roth, Bob Powell, Don Heck
Atlas Comics Library No. 5: Police Action
Fantagraphics 2025. Hard Cover. New. Joe Maneely Robert Q. Sale Gene Colan Art Peddy Mort Lawrence Werner Roth Bob Powell Don Heck. Pre-Code cops and robbers' action from the early 1950s! The fifth stand-alone genre-themed collection in Fantagraphics' archival series of mid-century Marvel Comics. Before focusing on tales of justice via superheroes under the Marvel banner the publisher covered ground-level crime across a range of comics titles and true-crime magazines. Under the Timely imprint from 1947 and Atlas from 1951 up to eleven graphic series including Justice Comics Official True Crime Cases All-True Crime Crime Cases Crime Can't Win Crime Must Lose and Crime Exposed all muscled each other and competitors for space on the newsstands. For the first crime-themed volume in Fantagraphics' ongoing project to restore and resurrect pre-Marvel pulp classics the Atlas Library has selected a book that debuted as the genre peaked just before a Senate hearing and the institution of the Comics Code banned the use of the word "Crime" from even appearing in a comic's title. Escaping that fate Police Action had a seven-issue run of violent and noir-ish morality plays pitting the officers of the law against the forces of urban malevolence and was produced by the cream of the Atlas freelance roster including Joe Maneely Robert Q. Sale Gene Colan Art Peddy Mort Lawrence Werner Roth and Bob Powell. Rounding the volume off also presented is a post-Code one-shot Police Badge #479 a snapshot of the industry's attempts to adapt to new strictures on the genre: here we view "our boys in blue" in the fight against rank corruption highlighting the work of Don Heck and Joe Maneely. 254 pages. Full Colour illustrations. 8" x 12" 198mm x 297mm. 2.5 Fantagraphics hardcover

[Civil War – Massachusetts – Death and Burial] Trustees of the North Sudbury Burying Ground
Notice to Stone Layers / Proposals will be received on FRIDAY the 17th instant at the / North Sudbury Burying Ground / for laying about 25 rods of wall around the addition to said ground
Concord Massachusetts: Benjamin Tolman 1863. Printed broadside 11 ¼ x 10 inches. Some tearing at folds very good. A straightforward but telling piece documenting the expansion of a Massachusetts burying ground during the American Civil War signed in type by three trustees of the North Sudbury Burying Ground. As casualties mounted and remains were returned to hometowns existing cemeteries were frequently enlarged with new land enclosed and improved by contract. The specification of “25 rods†over 400 feet of wall indicates a substantial addition typical of mid-war efforts to increase capacity in established town burial grounds rather than create entirely new sites. Sudbury contributed roughly 150–170 men to Union service of whom approximately eleven died a scale of loss consistent with small Massachusetts towns and sufficient to register locally in burial and memorial practices. We find no other records of ephemera or broadsides relating to Civil War-era cemetery expansion. This notice is not at AAS. Benjamin Tolman unknown

[COOK: DEATH] WEBBER, John, engraved by Francesco BARTOLOZZI and William BYRNE
The Death of Captain Cook In February 1779 by the murdering Dagger of a Barbarian at Carakakooa in one of the Sandwich Isles. He having there become a Victim to his own Humanity. The Distressing Scene is Part of the Original Plate after Webber by Messrs Bartolozzi & Byrne
London: Sold in Spur Street Leicester Square 1784. Small crease in lower corner in good condition. Oval engraving 350 x 265 mm. image size; mounted. <p><p>Rare variant of the famous engraving of Cook's death showing as the caption notes "Part of the Original Plate after Webber" and presumably quite literally printed from an oval cut from the fuller engraved copper. This is only very rarely seen: the single example noted by Joppien and Smith was in the British Museum. </p> <p>The full-size engraving was first issued early in 1784. Based on the oil painting executed by Webber soon after he returned to London in 1780 the figures were engraved by Francesco Bartolozzi and the landscape by William Byrne. Quickly becoming the most famous of all eighteenth-century depictions of the massacre the view appeared at about the same time as the official third voyage account was published. This was no coincidence: although lavishly illustrated by Webber the official account did not include any depiction of the most famous scene of the entire voyage the death of Captain Cook. As a result the iconic engraving is often seen bound into extra-illustrated editions of the third voyage account.</p> <p>Reflecting the general opinion prevailing in published accounts of the voyage the original image as Joppien and Smith argue appeared to show Cook as 'an innocent victim killed in the act of pleading for peace'. This is here heightened by the changed composition as the oval shape dictates a radically different impact to that of the original engraving omitting the dramatic conflict between the British sailors and the Hawaiians and thus implying a scene in which Cook his arm raised in supplication to his men offstage stands alone and is overwhelmed by a seething crowd.</p> <p>The only copy noted among Australian holdings appears to be the heavily clipped copy in the National Library of Australia part of the Nan Kivell collection.</p> </p> . Sold in Spur Street, Leicester Square unknown

La Danse des Morts a Bale.
<p><em>Chromolithograph panorama 8.8 x 296 cm on five conjoined strips; folding down into the original black cloth covers 9.1 x 11.2 cm.</em></p><p>Rare and attractive if rather disconcerting tourist souvenir panorama of the Dance of Death.</p><p>The panorama contains 43 separate scenes and is a reproduction of the 63 metre-long fresco painted on the inner wall of the cemetery of the Augustinan Convent Basel c.1440. that was possibly created under the influence of the plague epidemic of 1439. The sequence emphasises the vanity of social distinctions each character dancing with death. The wall and fresco were demolished in 1805 however a number of fragments survive in the Historisches Museum Basel.</p><p>Identifications of the subjects is given in the bottom margin in French English and German. The English identifications read from left to right: Preacher Charnel House Pope Emperor Empress King Queen Cardinal Bishop Duke Duchess Earl Abbot Knight Lawyer Alderman Canon Doctor Nobleman Lady Merchant AbbessCripple Hermit Young Man Maiden Minstrel Herald Judge Headsman Jester Pedlar Blind Man Jew Pagan Paganess Cook Peasant Painter Painter's Wife Paradise and The Dance of Death. As a tailpiece a view of Todlenanz as it appeared in 1800.</p><p>The panorama is derived from a watercolour copy by the still life painter Johann Rudolf Feyerabend 1779-1814 that was completed in 1806 and is also housed in the Historisches Museum Basel.</p> [Basel?]

[Juvenile Death] Burden, ER E R
Hollowmell: or A Schoolgirl's Mission
Glasgow: John S. Marr and Sons 1881. First edition. 18x14cm 5 128 plus 1 8pp publisher's ads. Color frontis 2 black and white plates vignette chapter ornamentation. Publisher's brown cloth stamped in black and gilt beveled edges rear cover ruled and decorated in blind. Rubbing along joints and corners light moisture staining and school presentation stamp to ffep front hinge cracked at title and first signature else clean and sound. Very good. <br /> <br /> Very uncommon juvenile work from Scotland about which scant information is to be found. The story concerns Mabel Minnie and Mona two schoolgirl friends and their archenemy who develop and undertake a mission to educate the poor children of the miners living in the row houses down by the pit. The idea is to use gentler methods of introducing Christianity at which the local missionaries and curates have failed:<br /> <br /> "We will take lessons from them and try to avoid what seems to have been their great mistake - injudiciousness; and perhaps showing a little too plainly that they considered them heathen and were determined to convert them at any cost."<br /> <br /> <br /> The book contains themes of friendship and antagonism philanthropy and stewardship faith and hope. However perhaps most interestingly the story explores death and loss as the young protagonists first grapple with the passing of a miner's wife from consumption. SPOILER ALERT Then Mabel becomes ill and Minnie must provide her and others hope as the young girl dies from fever due to a ruptured blood vessel.<br /> <br /> OCLC locates perhaps 3 physical copies of this rare book for the young 19th century reader. .
