1715réf. 21179London 1715. Broadsheet. 1p. plus printed docket title on verso. Disbound. Small folio. Early folds and early stab holes in left margin. Mild foxing. A rare British leaflet from the Fishmonger-Smackman Controversy of 1715. That year a bill was in motion before Parliament that would regulate various aspects of the fishing industry including fish size net use and mesh size and the importation of lobster. The latter issue ignited a significant controversy between and among British fish merchants and lobstermen with the most vocal merchants supporting a clause that would remove a ban on the sale of lobster caught by foreigners. In the present document the pro-free-trade-lobster fishmonger lobby responds to a recent leaflet by fellow fish merchants allied with the smackmen. An early example of commercial lobbying literature which first began proliferating in the lobby of the House of Commons at the time of the accession of King George I and the British general election of 1715. ESTC records five copies at the University of London Oxford the California State Library Harvard and Yale. Hanson 2122. unknown
1715réf. 21182London 1715. Broadsheet. 1 p. plus printed docket title on verso. Disbound. Small folio. Early folds and early stab holes in left margin. Mild foxing. A rare petition to Parliament relating to a current bill concerning the mesh size of fishing nets used along the coast of Great Britain. The fishing lobby here argues that the clause limiting mesh size to four inches except for use with "Herrings Pilchards Sprats and Sardenas" will prevent the catching of various larger fish and lobster and thereby ruin much of the national fishing industry. They claim that the fishmongers who support the regulation would prefer "to bring in Foreign Fish caught in Foreign Bottoms" and profit from the higher prices. A leaflet published the same year entitled An Answer to the Case of the Coasting Fishermen indicates the present document was authored by the lobsterman lobby. An early example of commercial lobbying literature which first began proliferating in the lobby of the House of Commons at the time of the accession of King George I and the British general election of 1715. ESTC records copies at only two institutions: Oxford and the University of London. Hanson 2118. unknown

The Fisheries are the greatest and at present almost the only resource of the West of Ireland. From the loss of the potatoes as a certain means of subsistence the fiishermen would give their undivided time to the Fisheries instead of losing the best seasons by wasting their labour on a high-rented potato garden. They would thus throw an immense quantity of cured food such as Hake Cod Ling Herring Haddock and Coal Fish into the interior of the country while they could dispose of such fish as could not be cured such as Turbot Plaice Mackerel Gurnard John Dorey Ray and Soles at the markets along the coast. The cured fish even with the present limited supply brought to the markets of Westport and Newport County Mayo is sold as low as a penny per lb. free from bone green salted that is not dried and sometimes not so high as a halfpenny per lb. fresh.The company should establish stations along the coast: say they began with three one at Killibegs one at Newport Pratt and one at the Shannon Mouth.From the Store at Ballyshannon I would send fresh fish packed in Ice and also cured fish by water carriage through the Enniskillen Lakes and by the Ulster Canal on to Belfast supplying all the intermediate twons and interior of the country. Chapters in the book include for example: Herring Nets - Buoys - Mode of Curing / Curing the Herring / The Rhodry-More / The Cod Fisheries / Lobster Crab and Cray Fish / Packing Herring etc. etc. hardcover

réf. 92323s.l. Bologna 192. . Grande manifesto a doppio foglio cadauno di cm 665 x 100. Stampato in nero e bianco su sfondo uniforme azzurro pastello. Disegnato da Umberto Tirelli raffigura Ugo Lenzi intento a pescare lungo il Reno seduto sull'angolo superiore della squadra massonica; nel retino al suo fianco un unico grosso pesce il tincone tutto attorno a lui nell'acqua tanti pesci sbeffeggiano il pescatore e l'esca da lui usata un sole sullo sfondo il panorama di Bologna. Umberto Tirelli Modena 1871 - Bologna 1954 fu caricaturista e disegnatore collaborò con numerosi giornali a carattere satirico come Il Duca Borso La Secchia Il Fittone Il Giornale delle beffe . e altri. Nel 1923 inaugurò a Bologna il suo "Teatro Nazionale delle Teste di Legno". Le teste erano a grandezza naturale costruite in cartapesta e con caratteri somatici caricaturali. A questa esperienza del disegnatore fa ripensare la grossa testa del pesce che Ugo Lenzi ha preso l'esca a forma di sole potrebbe riportare al periodo della scelta fatta dall'avvocato bolognese quando il Partito Socialista stabilì l'incompatibilità degli iscritti con la Massoneria. Sembrerebbe quindi di poter datare questo manifesto attorno agli anni '20 del XX secolo. Piccoli strappetti ai margini e una vecchia ripresa al retro ma ottimo esemplare con solo alcune righe del testo leggermente ingiallite unknown

1978réf. 29277New York:: Dutton 1978. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine copy in a Near Fine clipped jacket with previous owner inscription on the flyleaf. This collection of fishing essays features pieces by Thomas McGuane William Hjortsberg Jack Curtis Harmon Henkin Charles Waterman Jim Harrison and Russell Chatham. Thomas McGuane cites both "the longest silence" and the opportunity to encounter a bass that runs with "the solid irresistible motion of a Euclid bulldozer easing itself into a phosphate mine." William Hjortsberg admits to writing about fishing "for the money" while Russell Chatham remembers each detail as if it were intended for one of his paintings. To Jack Curtis "The fish is a flash of beauty and action enticed from an unfathomable element"; to the late Harmon Henkin angling "has no greater claim to spiritual purity than sex dope or any other recreation in contemporary America." Charles Waterman points out that fishing writers' sunsets are generally "more brilliant than those seen by milkmen and grain-combine operators." Jim Harrison argues psychiatric virtues: "Few of us shoot ourselves during an evening hatch." Dutton, unknown
