1951rif. 8050Rochester NY: Printed for Thomas H. Massey 1951. Very good. 9” x 6”. Flexible card wrappers; internally stapled. Pp. 3 60 1. Very good: several ink scribbles to verso of last leaf and a subtle few to two other spots; former owner's name inked to title page; a bit of soiling to one blank page; lightly toned. Inscribed by the author on title page. This is a rare and creative work showcasing Black perspectives on race and racism in everyday life. It was written by an African American Thomas H. Massey. All we were able to learn about Massey came from the introduction to this book written by Marian Perry Yankauer. Yankauer was identified as a lawyer former Assistant Special Counsel to the NAACP and Executive Secretary of the group's Rochester branch. She shared that Massey “was born in the 'separate but equal' environment of North Carolina” and educated at Morehouse College in Atlanta and “the University of Rochester's graduate school.” A “onetime Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference sprint champion” and disabled veteran of World War II the author had “lived and worked among bean pickers tobacco farmhands domestic service workers white collar workers and intellectuals.” Yankauer's text also explained the book's goal to provide “entertainment as well as an excellent introduction for a course in race relations . . . Massey confronts the reader with a seemingly casual treatment by humor and allusion . . . a chance to listen in on carefully chosen conversations in a ghetto . . . These are facts done up most attractively and easily digested but they are as authentic as any social study studded with statistics.” The conversations shared in this book cover a myriad of topics relevant to African Americans at the time not limited to “a new era for Negroes in Georgia” who were first hired into “white collar” jobs for the United States government in Atlanta. The book's Black characters discussed treatment by white co-workers bus drivers shopkeepers and strangers as well as the African American military experience. The talks concerned racial stereotypes education religion and politics with one conversation ribbing the appearance of Black celebrities in Congress: “Bobby: 'Well the way I see it: Robeson was a great All-American in football and he is a top-flight vocal artist; Jackie is a great all-around athletic ace but these facts don't make them authorities on the attitudes of some 15000000 people.' Larry: 'Ya got something there dude. I never heard of that committee calling in Joe DiMaggio Babe Ruth or Red Grange or Jim Thorpe to spiel on politics or patriotism.'” The book also held a list of “The Big Ten” books that the author sourced or recommended including Unpopular Essays by Bertrand Russell and Liberty Today by C.E.M. Joad. This copy was inscribed by Massey “To Wendell M. Wilson with best wishes.” A rare and personalized expressive foray into race relations by an African American author. OCLC shows five holdings.

"When the Wilmot Proviso against slavery in the territories acquired from Mexico produced angry debates Benton denounced the proviso but he also refused to support the southern demand for territorial expansion.

He hoped that it would ultimately disappear but meanwhile he prayed that it would never be expanded .

1803rif. 8981Albany: Printed by the Author 1803. Hardcover. Fair. The book is covered in a calf or buckskin wrapper sewn to itself in a zig-zag pattern over the paste-downs. The covers appear to be card and not wood. Oblong 13.25 cm 5 1/4 x 8 1/4 inches lacks all free end papers. VIII. 1-72 81-104. Defective: lacking the 4 center leaves. 6 leaves of manuscript music in round notes sewn in at back with the tunes Cambridge Ascension China North Salem Watchman Exhortation Littleton and Savannah. "Published according to Act of Congress." The first edition was "Engraved for the Editor by Abner Reed Lansingburg 1795" with viii. 104 pp. A second printing was issued in 1802 using the same plates. Reed was also the engraver of this tunebook identified at the bottom of the Index page.The Second Edition 1804 had a new title "The New York & Vermont Collection of Sacred Harmony." It also had new pagination: viii. 9-15 1 112. It has this prefatory note: "Hitherto known by the title of the 'New-york Collection' since it has been printed by the Author's own hands have induced him to present to the public this second Edition enlarged and corrected."The printing offered to you here has the same page numbers as the 1795 & 1802 printings uses the same plates with the change in the imprint to "Printed by the Author." Since the 1802 printing had the Lansingburg imprint and the Second edition of 1804 has a changed title & pagination and with the note by Atwill that he had been printing copies "with his own hands" we deem this an 1803 printing unrecorded. This printing is not in Britton & Lowens American Sacred Music Imprints 1698-1810 where the first & second editions are recorded in detail.The Index claims that the following tunes included here were "never before published." Andover Addison Amanda Brookfield Boston Etna Gratitude Hillsborough Millennium Messiah Poughkeepsie Pardoning-Grace Pomfret Ripton Sounding Joy Suffering Saviour Spain Troy Torringford Pobsfield Westpoint Warren and Anthem from Isa. 1st.Thomas H.

Atwill for the printing of Atwill's New York and Vermont Collection specified that Atwill pay the firm $600 over the period of a year for 4000 copies of his work. He was also required to furnish the paper! Since this tunebook was printed from engraved plates supplied by Atwill and not music type the $600 figure apparantly represented only the labor and binding costs." - Karl Kroeger Isaiah Thomas as Music Publisher American Antiquarian Society.With a signed provenance card from the collection of A.

1833rif. b9910London: Jones & Co. 1833. Hardcover. VG. Very good in dark green cloth-covered boards and a black leather spine. Wear at the spine extremities nineteenth-century bookplate some scattered foxing. Complete title: Modern Athens! Displayed in a Series of Views: or Edinburgh in the Nineteenth Century: Exhibiting the Whole of the New Buildings Modern Improvements Antiquities and Picturesque Scenery of the Scottish Metropolis and Its Environs from Original Drawings by Mr. Thomas H. Shepherd. With Historical Topographical and Critical Illustrations. Shepherd's volume was published with the intention of being bound with a re-issue of John Preston Neale's engraving's issued under the title "Scotland Illustrated" but at least in this copy issued without a title-page. In all there are 88 engravings containing two or more views plus substantial textual material. Normally Shepherd's book is found without the addition of the Neale engravings and text as was originally intended. There are some that prefer the Jones re-issue of the Neale drawings in part because there are additional views not included in the original 1819 edition of Neale. All of the engravings in this volume are in near fine or fine condition. Both Shepherd and Neale are genuine highspots. Jones & Co. hardcover
