Best.-Nr. 59227N.p.; photographer unknown ca 1990. Three large-format black-and-white photographic prints 11" x 14"; very mild creasing at edges still Near Fine. Three anonymous but excellent images of a Gulf War-era demonstration probably in Manhattan ca. 1990. The photographer is unidentified but the prints are of professional quality and capture close-up scenes of crowds carrying banners and placards opposing military involvement in the Middle East and directly attacking President George H.W. Bush. One placard calls for Bush's impeachment accusing him of ".creating the Gulf War to Cover Up His High Crimes and Misdemeanors;" another appears to read "Liar Liar We Will Set Your Ass on Fire." Several images suggest a New York likely Manhattan locale: one poster connects the marcher to SUNY Old Westbury on Long Island; several placards bear the imprint of the National Coalition to Stop U.S. Intervention in the Middle East including a New York City phone number. Though the precise date is obviously uncertain the event captured here is plausibly the October 20 1990 nationwide protest against Operation Desert Storm; rallies took place in several cities simultaneously but New York's was by far the largest as some 15000 protesters gathered at Columbus Circle and marched to Times Square. In general opposition to the first Gulf War was rather muted but significant demostrations did take place in October 1990 and January 1991 as well as a less well-attended counter-protest on the day of the Desert Storm victory parade June 8th 1991. unknown

1807Best.-Nr. 145581807. Waring Edward Scott. A Tour to Sheeraz 1807 travel narrative describing Persia during the early nineteenth century written by an officer of the British East India Company who journeyed to Shiraz in 1802 by way of the Persian Gulf. The work documents British encounters with Persian society at a moment when commercial diplomatic and strategic interests increasingly connected the Persian Gulf with British imperial networks centered in India. Waring records observations of Persian customs language literature and law while also describing economic activity and regional cultures encountered along the Gulf coast. His account places particular attention on the intellectual traditions of Persian literature and the social practices of Persian society providing commentary on classical Persian poetry as well as everyday cultural life. Waring Edward Scott. A Tour to Sheeraz by the Route of Kazroon and Feerozabad; with various remarks on the manners customs laws language and literature of the Persians. London: W. Bulmer for T. Cadell & W. Davies 1807. Second edition revised. Waring recounts his expedition to Shiraz and provides descriptions of landscapes towns and cultural practices encountered along the journey. The narrative includes discussions of hawk hunting Arabian horses and pearl fishing in the Persian Gulf with references to coastal communities stretching from Ras al Khaimah and Qatar to Bahrain and Kuwait. Waring also records an early European account of Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab and the religious movement associated with Wahhabi Islam. Throughout the text he comments on Persian language and literary traditions including references to major poets such as Hafiz and Saadi as well as the intellectual influence of Sufi thought. Travel literature concerning Persia and the Persian Gulf formed an important component of European knowledge about the region during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. British officials and merchants traveling between India and the Middle East produced accounts that combined geographic description with commentary on local society trade networks and political developments. Waring's narrative reflects this tradition presenting observations on Persian history and social customs alongside discussions of the literary heritage that shaped Persian intellectual culture. The author himself noted that the earlier 1804 edition printed in Bombay contained numerous errors that required correction leading to the publication of this revised edition. Folio volume containing 329 pages bound in quarter leather over original boards. The two plates called for are absent. Front board detached but present text block solid with staining and water damage visible throughout and writing on both front and rear pastedowns. Overall good condition. unknown
Best.-Nr. 12130Clinton era Air Force One golf ball circa 1993-2001 is a piece of presidential commemorative material bearing the visual identity of the executive office and presidential air transport during Bill Clinton's administration. Air Force One serves as the call sign for a U.S. Air Force aircraft while the president is aboard and the two VC-25A aircraft used for presidential transport became among the most recognizable symbols of the modern presidency. The golf ball consequently belongs to the material culture surrounding presidential travel executive symbolism and the informal commemorative objects associated with the White House and Air Force One. Dunlop Air Force One commemorative golf ball. Clinton era circa 1993-2001. White golf ball manufactured by Dunlop and printed in full color with the Presidential Seal.

During Clinton's presidency presidential air transportation centered on two specially configured Boeing 747-200B aircraft designated VC-25A which served both practical and symbolic roles in the public presentation of the presidency. As an object rather than a document of a specific flight or event the golf ball is most useful for the study of presidential memorabilia executive branding and the informal material culture associated with Air Force One. No specific defects are noted in the supplied description. Near fine. A compact Clinton-era presidential souvenir combining the iconography of the Presidency with one of its most recognizable instruments of official travel. unknown
