YAMAJIO 山塩 MOUNTAIN SALTBiblio.com

Archive of documents concerning the manufacture of salt in the town of Oguni in today's Yamagata Prefecture

ref. 11058Two formats 190 x 152 mm. & 150 x 365 mm. Oguni machi Kotamagawa å°å›½ç”ºå°çŽ‰å·: 1865-67. This archive describes the manufacture and regulation of yamajio mountain salt in the town of Oguni machi on the Tama River in the mountainous area of Yamagata Prefecture north of Niigata. The onsen springs of the town are rich in minerals and were used to manufacture salt for local and regional inhabitants. Today there are very few producers of mountain salt due to the laborious process but it is highly valued by connoisseurs of salt for its delicate taste. Our archive consists of: 1. Manuscript drawing 243 x 327 mm. showing the process of spraying the water on well-ventilated racks covered with branches of the shiba 柴 tree. This allowed the mineral-rich water to slowly drip into a large deep basin. The gathered water would then be boiled down leaving salt crystals. 2 & 3. The first two notebooks 10 & 5 leaves dated February and August 1865 contain details of production of the salt and names of those involved. 4. This notebook 11 leaves dated February 1865 is entirely devoted to the business of making and selling salt with records of quantities sellers and buyers prices received etc; 5. A document 14 leaves from the local magistrate's office dated February 1865 gives the names of salt manufacturers. 6. A notebook 5 leaves produced by the local magistrate's office regarding the sale and distribution of salt to many wholesalers in the city of Yonezawa with their seals dated October 1866. Somewhat stained but very legible. 7. Dated 1867 this notebook 8 leaves describes in great detail the process of saltmaking with descriptions of tools and other equipment techniques etc. unknown

CHURCHILL, Winston S - MOUNTAIN, Edward MortimerBiblio.com

Album of letters thanking Mountain for signed artist's proofs of A. Egerton Cooper's portrait of Churchill "Profile for Victory".

1944ref. 1945221944. Gratitude for Churchill A substantial collection of letters from senior public and business figures thanking Edward Mortimer Mountain for presenting them with signed artist's proofs of A. Egerton Cooper's portrait of Churchill "Profile for Victory". Mountain chairman of the Eagle Star Insurance Company purchased the portrait and commissioned the proofs for presentation to prominent figures. In September 1942 Churchill sat for the sculptor William Reid Dick. Cooper acting as Dick's assistant began sketching Churchill who impressed by the result consented to a full portrait. "The resulting oil portrait to which Cooper gave the title 'Profile for Victory' was first exhibited at the Royal Academy in May 1943 where it was widely praised as a 'morale-booster'" Black p. 12. It depicts Churchill seated in profile smoking a cigar with a folded newspaper on his lap. Mountain purchased the portrait and donated it to the Carlton Club in 1948; it still hangs there. The album opens with a reproduction of the portrait a title page reading "A few acknowledgements from recipients of signed Artist's Proof's from colour plates of the Portrait of the Prime Minister" and an index of correspondents. All the letters are addressed to Mountain except Clementine Churchill's which is addressed to Cooper: "How very kind of you to send me those excellent proofs your portrait of my husband". All date from 1944 most from January. Other correspondents include the lord mayor of London - "It is undoubtedly one of the finest that has been done" - the governor of the Bank of England the governor general of Canada Lords Beaverbrook and Rothermere the chairman of the Stock Exchange the editor of The Times and numerous titled figures. Many recipients headed banks and insurance companies in the City. Throughout recipients praise Churchill's leadership and express growing confidence in an Allied victory. Accompanying the album is a signed artist's proof of the portrait reproductions of other portraits by Cooper and newspaper cuttings. 182 letters mounted on stubs in quarto album 271 x 151 mm.

[Chinese-American Communities - Montana - 1870s] LH Hershfield & Brother Bank L HBiblio.com

Collection of Seventy-Six Checks Written to Chinese Businesses in Montana 1870-1872

1872ref. List2423Montana Territory 1872. Lot of seventy-six checks measuring 8 ½ x 4 inches with vignette illustration of a prospector and his dog. With one additional document relating to the Hershfield account with the Bank of California. Most checks issued to “Gold Coin” and drawn on the Bank of California in San Francisco. The checks are printed by Robert F. Macey Stationery in New York. Fine condition with an occasional tear and chip. Fine. In 1870 one out of ten residents of Montana Territory were of Chinese descent a figure that would decline precipitously in the ensuing decades until Chinese-Americans made up less than one percent of the population around the turn of the century. Chinese immigrants arrived in Montana following the discovery of gold in Bannack and Virginia City in the 1860s. Many of the Chinese immigrants settled and worked in the Big Belt Mountains east of Helena including the Cave Cooper Oregon and Confederate Gulches. Collected here are a collection of seventy six checks from Helena in 1870 and 1871 written to Chinese-owned businesses and cashed at the L.H. Hershfield and Brother bank in Helena and drawn on the Bank of California in San Francisco. The checks contain the names of over thirty different Chinese merchants operating in Montana at the time - with some companies like Wan Yuen and Co. having multiple checks present. As a group they offer an interesting map of the Chinese-American business community operating at the time and the duplicate checks which sometimes have notes on the verso giving a representation of the relative size of the firms and individuals involved. The LH Hershfield & Bro. Banking House in Helena operated from 1865 to 1882 in Last Chance Gulch near the corner of Bridge and Warren Streets. It later became the Merchants National Bank from 1882-1898 then the Union Bank and Trust Company from 1898 to 1859. Hershfield also had a banking operation in Virginia City during the Gold Rush period. Overall the group documents the Chinese-American community during the period and the breadth of economic activities of Chinese-Americans in Montana’s early mining camps. unknown

Japanese American Incarcerated Families at Poston Arizona and Heart Mountain WY Centers During World War II 1940s

1943ref. 211901943. WWII Japanese American Japanese American incarceration archive circa 1940s documenting the personal lives of Japanese American detainees at Poston War Relocation Center in Arizona and Heart Mountain Relocation Center in Wyoming during World War II. Executive Order 9066 authorized the forced removal and incarceration of more than 120000 persons of Japanese ancestry two thirds of them United States citizens. This archive provides direct material evidence of communication and daily life in the War Relocation Authority camp system. An addressed envelope postmarked February 20 1943 connects two of the ten major incarceration sites indicating a maintained interpersonal network across camps. Photographs in this archive depict a young Japanese American woman in Western dress posed outdoors with barracks visible in several backgrounds and include an image of a young girl on a see-saw before rows of camp housing illustrating the family and youth experience in the camps. Archive of 8 pieces including 7 photographs mostly black and white with one color and 1 post stamped envelope addressed to "Mrs. Asako Kudari" sic at Block 15 21 F Heart Mountain Center Wyoming. Circa 1940s. The envelope bears a purple United States stamp depicting an eagle above the slogan "Win the War" and is postmarked February 20 1943 from Block 44 3A Poston Relocation Center Arizona. Photographs measure approximately 6.5 x 3.5 inches to 2.25 x 3.25 inches. Several images show detainees with camp barracks in the background; others portray a young woman with a Japanese American man wearing glasses suggesting prewar memories though no inscription confirms dating. Poston located in Yuma County Arizona was the largest of the War Relocation Authority camps while Heart Mountain in Park County Wyoming confined nearly 14000 people at its peak. Heart Mountain became a focal point of organized resistance to the military draft of Nisei men in 1944 when 85 young men and seven leaders of the Fair Play Committee were prosecuted under the Selective Service Act after challenging the legality of conscripting citizens while their civil rights were suspended. The present archive predates that confrontation but documents the correspondence networks and ordinary domestic life of the immigrants and citizens detained. Minor edge wear and light surface handling to photographs; envelope with expected postal folds and moderate age toning; overall very good condition. An archive linking two major incarceration sites. unknown

Salmo Fontanalis / Caught in Clark's Fork of Yellowstone River M.T. / September 7th 1877 / Total length 20 1/2 Inches

1877ref. 321671Montana Territory 1877. Pen-and-ink drawing on ruled paper cut out to size and captioned as above. Approx. 20-1/2 x 7 inches. Old folds. Matted. Pen-and-ink drawing on ruled paper cut out to size and captioned as above. Approx. 20-1/2 x 7 inches. From the first reports of the Yellowstone region such as Gen. Wm. E. Strong's A Trip to the Yellowstone National Park in July August and September 1875 the word began to spread: "There is probably no river in the world the equal of the Yellowstone for big trout." Though tourist parties began to travel to the Yellowstone it was still uncertain territory. In the late summer of 1877 it was the seat of war. In early September 1877 Civil War veteran General Oliver O. Howard who a decade earlier had founded Howard University and served as its president was leading his troops on the trail of the Nez Perce who had just left the Yellowstone Park. Howard's forces more than 500 strong reached the northeast corner of the Park on Clark's Fork on 7 September. The Nez Perce under the leadership of Chief Joseph moved through incredibly rugged terrain and ultimately evaded both Howard and another military cohort under Col. Samuel D. Sturgis. This contemporary record of a Yellowstone river trout was made on a large sheet of ruled ledger paper. The anonymous artist is believed to be Lieut. Cyrus A. Earnest of the 8th U.S. Infantry as the item was found among his papers with a cyanotype of Fort Bridger California where he was posted following his Yellowstone expedition service as well as several related printed documents of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion California Commandery. These items accompany the drawing. Earnest 1840-1893 was a lieutenant in the Eighth Infantry and served with Custer in the 1873 Yellowstone Expedition to survey a route for the Northern Pacific Railroad along the Yellowstone River. While serving under Howard in the Nez Perce expedition Earnest received special commendation for a heroic 2-day over 100 mile ride over rough terrain to resupply the army at Baker's battlefield. Ernest who was born in Ohio used the conventional name for the brook trout Salmo fontanalis but that describes a non-native eastern species. Yellowstone cutthroat trout or black spotted are the most widespread native trout with "highly variable coloration but generally yellow-brown or brassy/bronze" They were first described as a distinct species Oncorhynchus clarkii bouvieri by Jordan and Gilbert in 1883. A remarkable artifact from the earliest years of the U.S. presence in the Yellowstone valley and a reminder that at the edges of battle people attend to customary tasks and pursuits: fishing and making a record of daily activities. Provenance: Cyrus A. Earnest 8th U.S. Infantry see below unknown

PAPERCUTTING - DECOUPAGE.

1850ref. 8528A bravura performance of recreational papercutting of elaborate wood engraved prints many of large size. The name on the first leaf 'Mr Montagne' is constructed of historiated letters from various sources which sets the tone for this rather astonishing and various collection of cut prints apparently chosen for their delicacy and intricacy and the challenge they presented to the papercutter. After cutting many have only minute filaments holding them together like a net. This is not an antiquarian collection and most of the subjects seem to have come from French popular newspapers and journals of the day others from pattern books — the best contemporary repositories of the wood engraver's art. Papercutting has developed in different branches all over the world and in Europe especially England and France it bears an interesting relation to print culture. It demonstrates alternative ways of consuming products of the explosion of the production visual prints in the mid nineteenth-century involving personal selection manual interaction curation and preservation. There are images here of contemporary notables: including a statue of the army surgeon Dominique Jean Larre erected in 1850 at Val-de-Grâce; Thomas Robert Bugeaut d. 1849; Louis-Eugène Cavaignac; Emperor Louis-Napolèon III first president of France 1848-1852; Queen Victoria; George Washington; Alexander II. Other subjects include flora and fauna sometimes exotic with some American falcons and exotic plants; coaches and carriages with some more recherché conveyances such as De Schevleing's sailing chariot; there are soldiers and also a few caricatures. But perhaps the most impressive and decorative cuts are the prints of medieval applied art and architecture – with copious gothic detail — and the large cartouches and decorative panels with their floral swags leafy branches and tendrils all offering a robust challenge even to the expert papercutter's hand. Oblong folio 295 × 450 mm 72 leaves all but one of stiff blue paper each with elaborate papercut prints mainly to one side but occasionally to versos too. Some prints on coloured paper others with coloured elements. Original album binding with amateur late 19th century floral fabric covers brocade borders and decoration secured with long stitching over the front pastedowns.

1684ref. 392032ª Edición.- FACSIMIL editado en Milton Keynes: Lightning Source UK 2021 y ORIGINAL editado In Roma: Si stampano e si vendono in Stampa. di Gio. Iacomo de Rossi 1684.- Vol. 1 facsímil conteniendo el primer libro a tamaño reducido 42 fol. Vol. 2 original conteniendo en un mismo tomo del segundo al quinto libro 48; 49; 40; 24 fol.: Retratos del artista arquitecto diseñador y escultor "G. B. Montano Milanese a la edad de ochenta y siete años muerto en Roma en 1621" en frontis y del recopilador "G. B. Soria Romano a la edad de cuarenta y dos años" tras la portada del segundo libro ambos magníficamente grabados al cobre por Hieronimus David además de profusión de finísimos grabados mostrando planos templos sepulcros tabernáculos etc.; Facsímil en 4º 239 x 155 cm y obra original en Gran Folio 38 x 27 cm; Facsímil del primer libro encuadernado en Cartulina y obra original encuadernada en un sólo volumen en Media Piel época conteniendo los libros del segundo al quinto. El libro primo se ofrece a modo de complemento como un libro aparte siendo un FACSIMIL moderno impreso a tamaño reducido. FALTA el folio 12 del quinto libro y por tanto uno de sus grabados. En general todos los grabados están en excelente estado algunos con muy leves manchas. El retrato del arquitecto está reforzado de época con una hoja en blanco adherida al verso del mismo manchada en su mitad inferior. La encuadernación algo fatigada aunque restaurada. El arquitecto y tallista Montano Milanese muere en 1621 por lo que toda la publicación de su obra es póstuma tanto los tres primeros libros publicados por Soria Romano en 1624 1625 y 1628 como los dos siguientes publicados por Callisto Ferranti en 1636 y 1638. La Imprenta de Giovanni Domenico de Rossi los reúne y publica juntos bajo el título "Li cinque libri di Architettura di Gio. Battista Montani Milanese" en 1684 que es la obra que ofrecemos pero altera el orden cronológico de las cinco primeras ediciones sueltas y las ordena a capricho sin seguir el año de su primera publicación. Realmente este orden carece de importancia pues creemos que lo que pretendió Giovanni Domenico De Rossi en esta segunda edición fue simplemente recopilar toda la producción artística del gran Giovan Battista Montano Milanese.
