History of England DRAPER DANIELS' SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY COPY
New York: Harper and Brothers 1928. Early Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. 5 3/4 X 8 3/4 Inches. 900 PP. Owned and boldly signed by Draper Daniels Mad Men on the FFEP! Dated while Daniels was at Syracuse College.<br /> <br /> As one might suspect this college textbook that was once owned by the Madison Avenue advertising giant looks to be unused. I'm sure copies of other books on Daniels shelf while at Syracuse were used plenty this one looks like he bought it signed it and shelved it. Ironically he held onto this book when he retired and moved to Naples FL. Front hinge is starting but a very attractive copy overall. A perfect gift for anyone in the advertising industry.<br /> <br /> Draper Daniels 1913-1983 20th Century advertising icon and model for the character "Don Draper" on AMC's "Madmen" television series. Draper was a visionary in the world of modern advertising born in the 1950's and 60's. While serving as Creative Head of Leo Burnett advertising he is widely known for The Marlboro Man the Jolly Green Giant Elsie the Borden Cow Charlie Tuna Star Kist and Tony the Tiger among many others. Daniels would later leave Leo Burnett in favor of his own company Draper Daniels Inc. which he ran alongside his second wife Myra Janco Daniels. In 1962 President John F. Kennedy appointed Daniels to the position of National Export Coordinator for the United States. NOTE: Myra's 2009 Chicago Magazine article "I Married a Mad Man" is easily found online and is the perfect introduction to the real Don Draper AKA Draper Daniels. Harper and Brothers hardcover

New York: Dodd Mead & Company 1951. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 5 5/8 X 8 1/8 Inches. 272 PP. First printing copy of this early history of the Oak Island Treasure as well as wrecks in Bermuda and the Cape Cod sinking of the Pirate Ship Whidah. Signed and inscribed by author to early explorer of the Whidah John Francis Light. Light who was a teenager when he started studying the Whidah wreck never located the treasure. It was found by Barry Clifford in 1984. Very early signature from the year of publication. Light's account of the shipwreck and his discoveries are a major part of the book itself. This book is also the FIRST APPEARANCE OF KEMPTON'S cipher translated as "Forty feet below two million pounds lie buried" IN REGARDS TO THE OAK ISLAND TREASURE! A scarce and very important copy with possibly the finest provenance that any copy could have. <br /> <br /> Light toning and some tearing to final few pages that uncut and later pulled apart I would assume by Light who wanted the finish reading the book. Original price of $3.00 on front flap. Wear and minor chipping to DJ edges. Spine sunned. Dodd, Mead & Company hardcover

A couple of boards with short scratches two volumes with corners gently bumped occasional minor browning isolated faint spotting or smudges other trivial imperfections but A FINE SET with few indications of use inside or out.<br/> <br/> This collection of British and royal histories comes in quite attractive contemporary bindings and with distinguished provenance being part of the impressive library of William King Lord Lovelace and his wife Ada. Its inkstamp indicates it was in the library of Ashley Combe the spectacular Lovelace estate in Somerset as well as the family's Scottish hunting lodge known as Ben Damph Forest. William King eighth Baron King of Ockham 1805-93 lord lieutenant of Surrey and first Earl of Lovelace is best known for having a remarkable wife--the brilliant mathematician Augusta Ada Byron sole legitimate child of Lord Byron whose work with Charles Babbage produced what is considered the first computer program. The house at Ashley Combe was central to Lovelace and Babbage's scientific work as much of their collaboration and discussions took place during Babbage's visits to the house. The binding commissioned by Lord Lovelace is ornate but tasteful and the set is very much in "country house"--or in this case hunting lodge--condition. The radical Whig and a supporter of the American Revolution William Belsham 1752-1827 was an English historian and political writer whose considerable output comprised a lasting contribution to the understanding of the historical currents of his time. G. G. and J. Robinson unknown

(HOLBACH, P.H.D.TH. D'.)
Système de la nature, Ou des loix du monde physique & du monde moral. Par M. Mirabaud. Sécretaire perpétuel, & l'un des quarante de l'Académie Françoise. Nouvelle Édition. Premiere Partie [- Seconde Partie].
A Londres, 1781. 2 volumes. (12), 316, pp.; (4), 385, (3) pp. 8vo. Contemporary marbled calf, spines gilt with raised bands, gilt triple fillet on sides, all edges gilt. Vercruysse 1781-A1. This is Holbach's most famous work (and in which he was very likely assisted by Diderot) and expounds a complete theorie of materialism.Holbach contributed some four hundred articles to the Encyclopédie of his lifelong friend and colleague Denis Diderot. Diderot, d'Alembert, Helvetius, Voltaire and others of the philosophes met frequently for dinner and philosophical discussion at the Baron's house, which became known as 'the café of Europe' (among foreign visitors were Wilkes, Hume and Sterne). In the Système Holbach rejected the Cartesian mind-body dualism and attempted to explain all phenomena, physical and mental, in terms of matter in motion. Holbach rejected religion because he saw it as a wholly harmful influence, and he tried to supply a desirable alternative. In fact he outlined a whole ethical and political philosophy, which he expanded in his later works.Holbach may not have been a great original thinker (his important ideas can already be found in predecessors such as Hobbes, Locke and La Mettrie), but by combining various elements in their thought and pressing it to the logical conclusion he reached the most extreme position in eighteenth-century free-thought. In fact, the present book caused a rift in the ranks of the philosophes, dividing them between deists and atheists, and even provoked Voltaire to reply in defense of religion.The pages 339-385 contain l'Abrégé du code de la nature and the Réquisitoire du 18 août 1770. - A very good copy.
