1970réf. 2025-48Rare original poster in very good condition."Established in late 1969 the Berkeley Tenants Union the first of its kind in the region aimed to organize low-income tenants protesting evictions rent increases and poor housing conditions throughout Berkeley. At the same time the tenants' union formed a coalition with other activist groups hoping to gain community control over living space. Although it failed to achieve its revolutionary desires the Berkeley Tenants Union greatly increased tenants' political power and brought housing reform to the forefront of local public debate" The San Francisco Digital History Archive. The position of the Union can be deduced from the title of one of its rare pamphlets: Join the tenants union: rent is theft. No holdings of this poster located in OCLC.

1965réf. 22540Newtonville MA: International Data Corporation 1965. Near fine in printed vinyl binder. First Edition. Quarto sheets in three-ring binder. Advertisement for Honda laid in. Proceedings of an early commercially oriented computer conference held on November 19th 1964 in Newtonville Massachusetts. The notebooks describe a wide range of computer equipment and applications. Speakers included computer science pioneer and antinuclear activist Edmund C. Berkeley known for having designed "Simon" the first "personal computer" in 1950. In January 1963 Berkeley was also the first person in print to describe an image as "computer art" upon publishing an image created by Israeli computer scientist Efraim Arazi in the magazine "Computers and Automation". Co-speaker Patrick J. McGovern had begun the EDP Industry & Market Report a year prior in 1964; that publication would eventually morph into both Computer World and PC World as well as spawning the "For Dummies" book series. McGovern achieved massive financial success; at time of death in 2014 his net worth was estimated by Forbes at in excess of five billion dollars. Overall a fascinating document from just before the dawn of the microprocessor revolution. Newtonville, MA: International Data Corporation unknown

In a leather tipped brown cloth open end case. First American from the fourth London edition. First published in March 1732. xiii i 15-388 pp. 8vo. With a leaf concerning the "Character of the Work" by Timothy Dwight Yale College Dec. 23 1802. In 1728 Berkeley went to America to look into founding a college in Rhode Island. He lived on a farm outside Newport Rhode Island until 1731 when he returned to England. It was during his residence in America that most of "Alciphron" was written and many of the descriptions of scenery are of the Newport area. Berkeley was close friends with the American Samuel Johnson. Johnson's "Elementa Philosophica" "the first text book in philosophy to appear in English-speaking America" Cremin "American Education" p. 296 owed much to the influence of Berkeley. In 1733 Berkeley sent a large contribution of books to Yale for its library. "A finely written work in the form of dialogue critically examining the various forms of free-thinking in the age and bringing forward in antithesis to them his own theory which shows all nature to be the language of God" Ency.

1903réf. 5696Berkeley California: The Church; Printed by thePress of Standard Publishing Company 1903. Octavo 23.25 x 14 cm. iv 171 i pages. Advertisements. Index. Evident first edition but subsequent to an 1884 publication with different subtitle author statement and publisher. A generous church cookbook with seven hundred recipes; noteworthy among them: Squash Muffins Celery Root and Hearts of Artichoke Mussel Bordelaise Clam Patties Spanish Meat Pie Coffee Fruit Cake Lemon Cocoanut Cake Cookies with Sherry Monterey Pudding Gooseberry Pudding Pineapple Blanc-Mange Strawberry Mousse. ~ Congregationalists answered the call from President Daniel Coit Gilman 1831-1908 of the University of California to build a hall and organize a fellowship of moral vision within reach of the campus community. The "local church" emphasis of Congregationalist governance had already attracted the largest Protestant presence in San Francisco. After ten years of planning members of Berkeley First Congregational were called to new quarters by a recently cast bell on 30 September 1884 at the corner of Durant Avenue and Dana Street. Thus the early version of The Berkeley Cook Book subtitled A Collection of Choice and Tested Recipes celebrated the dedication of the 1884 church while its younger sibling of 1903 would have appeared in time to honor the building's twentieth anniversary. ~ In another twenty years they would move again to a grander brick complex on Channing Way still only a few city blocks from campus designed by the Bay Area architect Horace Gardner Simpson. It served successive generations for ninety years but in September 2016 was gutted by fire and the building's fate is undetermined as of this writing. ~ Clean and bright. Lightly wear at fore-corners and spine. Stapled in olive wrappers titled in brown. Very good.
