1950réf. 223221950. Complete 1950 run of Jazz Journal Vol. 3 Nos. 1-12. London: L. M. Publications 1950. Complete run of the 1950 volume. Twelve issues with each issue around 20 pages. Black-and-white photo illustrations throughout. Printed paper wraps. Founded in 1948 by editor Sinclair Traill Jazz Journal became a critical platform for serious jazz criticism in Britain at a time when the country began appreciating the impact of African American musical innovation. This volume features twelve monthly issues each spotlighting legendary musicians in deeply reverent portraits: Louis Armstrong Baby Dodds Coleman Hawkins Fats Waller Earl Hines and others. The December cover has a Christmas theme. This archive is a window into Britain's postwar jazz awakening. The articles range from retrospectives to musicology and artist discographies. Floyd Levin's "The American Jazz Scene" captures the transatlantic tone of the journal mourning the death of Buster Wilson and lauding figures like Sidney Anderson and Kid Ory as vanguards of "authentic" jazz-framed as endangered in a postwar America increasingly seduced by commercialism. Meanwhile Derrick Stewart-Baxter's "Preachin' the Blues" traces rural-to-urban migration patterns in blues development analyzing Sleepy John Estes' discography and folk influences. The December issue features a full-page bibliophilic essay "A Case for Books" reviewing A Treasury of the Blues by W. C. Handy whom it names "the composer of the classic Memphis Blues and Joe Turner Blues" emphasizing the book's role in preserving "the true and historical survey of the blues." Taken together the essays discographies and image curation construct a coherent theory of jazz not only as music but as cultural heritage. Moderate and consistent soiling and creasing to wrappers; binding intact but some covers remain delicate. Occasional chipping at spine. Covers remain vivid with strong photographic contrasts. Overall good condition. A complete year's run of one of the earliest and most influential British jazz journals with signatures from leading musicians of the era such as Armstrong Dodds and Hawkins. unknown books
1860réf. 165691860. J. B. Remarks on the Obstacles to the More General Employment of Women and on the Means of Removing Them 1860. First edition of a pamphlet advocating expanded employment opportunities for British women and identifying discriminatory hiring practices opposition from male workers and limited occupational choices as causes of female poverty. Published through the English Woman's Journal a periodical closely associated with the Langham Place circle of women's rights reformers the pamphlet appeared during an organized campaign to open professions and skilled occupations previously reserved for men. Its author directly challenges workplace resistance to female labor: "Women however cannot be employed in England in this manner because of the jealousy of their fellow workmen. If a master were to employ women in any part of the business the whole of his workmen would strike at once." The passage identifies threatened industrial action by male employees as a practical obstacle to women's economic advancement even when employers were willing to hire them. J. B. Remarks on the Obstacles to the More General Employment of Women and on the Means of Removing Them. London: Published at the Office of the English Woman's Journal Company Limited 1860. First edition. 16 pages. Original paper wrappers measuring 8¼ x 5¼ inches. Reprinted from the English Woman's Journal the pamphlet examines barriers preventing women from obtaining sufficient paid employment and proposes measures to expand their opportunities. The author connects occupational exclusion with increasing demands upon public and private charitable institutions: "Workhouses were found to be overcrowded with able-bodies females while charities were besieged with women praying to be provided either with employment or bread." These observations link women's unemployment directly to poverty relief while the discussion of male workers' resistance identifies the exclusionary practices that prevented women from entering better-paid occupations. The pamphlet was published shortly after the establishment of the Society for Promoting the Employment of Women in 1859 an organization associated with Jessie Boucherett Barbara Leigh Smith Bodichon and other members of the Langham Place circle. The Society sought to expand women's access to commercial clerical and skilled employment through vocational training and direct engagement with employers. The pamphlet's discussion of workplace opposition and overcrowded workhouses provides contemporary evidence of the economic conditions these reformers sought to address preceding later campaigns for women's property rights and equal access to professions.

1966réf. 214071966. Counterculture Archive of five issues of The Realist the groundbreaking satirical and political magazine founded by Paul Krassner. Known for its radical leftist stance and boundary-pushing commentary The Realist was a critical voice in the countercultural movements of the 1960s blending investigative journalism with dark humor and unflinching critiques of American politics war race relations and the establishment. With contributions from figures such as Robert Anton Wilson Abbie Hoffman and Timothy Leary the publication played a significant role in shaping the political satire of the New Left. Archive includes: 1 The Realist. Issue No. 64 February 1966. Features a striking illustrated cover satirizing American apathy with references to the infamous Kitty Genovese murder the Ku Klux Klan and the House Un-American Activities Committee HUAC. Inside Krassner and his contributors skewer the failures of American justice and political hypocrisy with their signature blend of absurdity and biting critique. This issue exemplifies The Realist's approach to humor as a vehicle for exposing societal failures particularly in race relations and government repression. 2 The Realist. Issue No. 65 March 1966. Includes Robert Anton Wilson's The Fatal Snowball Fight on Cumberland Avenue a darkly humorous piece that examines law enforcement's overreaction to a student snowball fight in Knoxville Tennessee. The article serves as a microcosm of broader societal tensions highlighting the growing rift between youth counterculture and the authoritarian establishment. Other articles in this issue continue The Realist's sharp critiques of the Vietnam War police violence and political paranoia. 3 The Realist. Issue No. 69 September 1966. features one of the magazine's most notable pieces An Impolite Interview with Timothy Leary in which the controversial LSD advocate discusses drug policy consciousness expansion and the First Amendment. This issue also includes The Day the Supreme Court Banned Vaseline a satirical jab at America's obscenity laws and the broader censorship debate as well as Modest Proposals: The Whitey Survival Manual which critiques racial politics in a manner characteristic of The Realist's provocative and often incendiary approach. The cover's headline Lyndon Johnson Loves Nervous Nellie reflects the magazine's ongoing lampooning of the Johnson administration's political anxieties. 4 The Realist. Issue No. 71 November 1966. Provides a prescient discussion of Hollywood's role in politics with the article Remember Next Tuesday: Get Tufts! which speculates on Ronald Reagan's political rise following his election as Governor of California. The cover features a photograph of Reagan highlighting The Realist's scrutiny of the merging of celebrity and political power-a theme that would become increasingly relevant in decades to come. 5 The Realist. Issue No. 72 December 1966. Robert Anton Wilson's The Cybernetic Revolution anticipates the impact of automation and artificial intelligence on society reflecting the counterculture's growing fascination with technology as both a tool of liberation and oppression. Renfreu Neff's Automation and Aberration explores the evolution of sexual mores arguing that traditional notions of deviance and perversion are becoming obsolete in the face of modernity. The issue like many from The Realist blurs the line between genuine inquiry and satirical exaggeration making it both thought-provoking and deeply irreverent. During the 1960s The Realist served as a crucial alternative press outlet for leftist anarchist and countercultural thought. At a time when mainstream media was constrained by Cold War conservatism and corporate control Krassner's magazine became a hub for irreverent unfiltered political satire. The publication targeted institutions such as the military-industrial complex religious orthodoxy and government censorship while also providing a platform for psychedelic culture civil rights and radical activism. All issues are in newsprint format with varying degrees of age toning and edge wear typical of publications of this period. Overall very good condition. An important collection from one of the defining underground publications of the 20th century. unknown books
1970réf. 221271970. FeminismSocialismLaborLGBTQ Underground newspaper Kaleidoscope Milwaukee WI archive of two issues. Vol. 1 No. 7 Oct. 29-Nov. 11 1970; Vol. 3 No. 23 Jan. 15-22 1971. Two original issues from Milwaukee's radical newspaper Kaleidoscope a cornerstone of New Left feminist and countercultural expression in the Midwest. These issues exemplify the intersectional editorial voice of the paper prominently featuring articles on feminist self-determination LGBTQ liberation reproductive autonomy and anti-racist solidarity. The October 29-November 11 1970 issue is especially notable for its explosive front-page headline "OFF SEXIST PIGS!" and its radical feminist manifesto demanding an end to male chauvinism and gender oppression. The text includes direct calls for solidarity among women critiques of workplace discrimination at Harley-Davidson and shout-outs to revolutionary women including Bernadine Dohrn and Angela Davis. Inside readers encounter a full-page satirical parody of the Madison-Milwaukee Bugle-American that mocks local liberal media's co-optation of radical aesthetics alongside critiques of law enforcement welfare policy and censorship. The January 15-22 1971 anniversary issue celebrates four years of Kaleidoscope's publication and centers on both introspection and community engagement. It includes prominent articles such as "OBSTETRICS IN THE WRONG HANDS" which critiques institutionalized misogyny in medical practice and "GAY GUIDE" a resource for Milwaukee's LGBTQ community. A striking article titled "THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES" explores queer identity and resistance through the lens of Warhol superstar Holly Woodlawn whose image dominates the spread. Elsewhere "faggot faggot faggot" provides a bold reclamation of slurs while analyzing anti-queer violence and legal discrimination. The layout's creative typography and photo-collage aesthetic reflect the underground press's rejection of mainstream journalistic forms. Mild toning to edges with expected brittleness to newsprint; light chipping to spine fold of the earlier issue; both issues remain legible with strong contrast to ink and graphics. Overall very good condition. A powerful primary source capturing the radical ferment of early 1970s Milwaukee this set documents the convergence of feminist queer and anti-authoritarian movements in the heartland-a scarce and potent artifact of Midwest underground publishing. unknown books

réf. 5300CARIBBEAN TRAVEL JOURNAL. Diary. 101 pages. The Caribbean. c. 1908-9. The handwritten journal belonging to C. B. Benson of Hudson New York. The diary recounts Bensons experience on an organized cruise group visit to Caribbean locations such as St. Thomas Puerto Rico Kingston Jamaica Caracas Venezuela Panama City Panama Port of Spain Trinidad and Martinique. Benson records his experiences in each location including his impressions of the town the locals sights he visited and local travel. He visited forts a school churches a mill a sugar plantation and Carnival celebrations. Benson took his tour during the era of colonial rule the attitudes of which infuse both his experiences and observations. Based on his mention of an earthquake in Kingston Jamaica taking place a year or two before he travelled in 1908 or 1909. St. Thomas where we arrived about 6 A.M. mid morning Jan 26 is one of the Virgin group and we found her framed and frescoed in the principal churches. Columbus in 1493 gave the group of 100 islands rocks andwhich comprise the group. St. Thomas is 13 miles in length and 3 miles in width at its broadest. And I guess we walked the length of it speaking broadly and in the abstract at this distance.The heat of the tropical sun also takes its toll and blurs our ideas of time and distance somewhat. The town of Charlotte Amelia contains 13000 inhabitants merchants and black babies and they are all dressed in their Sunday best to receive us properly.Thursday morning at 8 we went ashore at Porto sic Rico.Returning thro the village streets we stopped at the market place and noticed the display of fruits in baskets a couple of men seated on low stools with blacks in front of them.a native womanwas entertaining us in the middle of the road with a dance.When passing the island of Haiti.Do you know why we do not stop at the Island of Haiti No There are cannibals there there are so many fat people aboard you would lose your wife At St Thomas the American council held open house and received some of us who dared to invade this solitude.An hours railroad ride which was made interesting by stops at every littleand station where the bare legged boy with the oil gun in hand squirted oilbearings sic of the cars and engine. As it was before the 17 miles came to an end the rear axle of the parlor car so called because it had leather covered reclining seats caught fire. But when this happened we were nearly at the end of our journey and we were not delayed much. At the sugar plantation where we detrained we found we had some distance to walk downto the sugar mill. As there was no path and the sticky wet ground to soil made worse by the heavy rain of the night before.A sugar mill is never a clean place.The process is somewhat intricate but way he likened to the process of brewing.The cane piled up in the yard is boiled in a number of vats then is run off with barrels and in a black and solid state in shipped to the Refineries at New York. The fiber of the cane is then hardened and dried and is fed to the furnaces to boilcane. After return to the town San Juan we visited the shops. Walked out to the fort at the entrance of the harbor. The town is excellently policed and paved in the principal streets with telegram blocks.As this day was Thursday we concluded that every day was wash day for the native women and girls who for want of other diversions spend most of their time in this form of dissipation. Even the balconies of the main public street filled with traffic of street cars carriages and drays had their fill of wash some of which are found laying in the street having been carried down by the wind. No one had appropriated it as yet; and we did not add it to our collection of souvenirs. At the officers quarters I applied for a permit of the officer of the day to enter the fort San Cristobal the fort commanding the entrance to the harbor.The fort was like most forts. The high tower gave a commanding view of the town and harbor. Then we visited the Governors Palace. In the Reception Room hanging on opposite sides facing each other are life sized oil paintings of McKinley & Cleveland. In the garden were some large palms tropical ferns a fountain &.Jan 29. early in the morning we were at Kingston in Jamaica. The channel is narrow and tortuous but well Taking a local pilot we soonopposite itof three vessels one of which was the Princess Louise that was caught in the hurricane here three years ago andthe larger of the three vessels was trying to pick up the light from the light house which had been blown down. This destruction of the hurricane.After driving about a mile thru the city the destruction to the buildings & pavements made by the earthquake here a year or two ago half of the city seems to be in ruins and no attempt has been made apparently to rebuild & restore the city. Thousands of lives were lost here at that time which did immense damage to the fruits. Most of the uninhabitable part of the island belongs to the United Fruit Company a Boston Corporation who ships immense quantities of bananas from Port Antonio. Owing to recent destruction by fire of Hotel Litchfield our stop at the port of San Antonio and stay of night at the Hotel was omitted. An excursion across the island by train to Mandeville was arranged in its place.The town of Colon in its principle streets are paved with brick and appear clean. We noticed many buzzards. The air was clear and there was a delightful cool breeze blowing.We stopped at all of the stations going to Panama and noted the wonderful impressions made by the Sanitary Commission. The well ventilated and screened houses. The plan for disposal of garbage the open drainage the cleared landsBut of course the facts are here bug and drain all working to the mutual exclusion of some ideas to the American white employers. Therefore after a few months they must have a reaction in the States toand detach themselves from all absorbing facts. The fighting for life againstfires. Most things arebetween the white employers and the black employees. So we find the White Bar and the Black Bar The White Employees The Silver White Employees &c as signs on the cars intended to carry workmen back and forth from the works.Caracas the capital of Venezuela is about 3000 ft up but the sun in the middle of the day we found very hot.Plaza Bolivar was decorated with rows of colored electric lights. They are preparing for the Carnival season which ushers in Lent in Catholic countries. The market place had counters for dry goods highly colored handkerchiefs etc. Another section was devoted to fruits vegetables etc. We noticed some very large apricots. Mr. Bolivar apparently has done a great deal for his native town. He has given his name while the people furnished the funds for the largest parks a street and the coinage of the plutocrats.The Spaniard theHildago -in his easy subjugation of thepleasure loving tropical savage has replaced the native of simple taste and left in his place the mongrel half-breed with all the vices of the conqueror and none of the virtues of theIndian savage.

Single issue of this very scarce presumably short-lived abolitionist newspaper published by Benjamin S. Jones under the auspices of the Anti-slavery Society of the City & County of Philadelphia. This copy with dated 1864 pencil ownership markings of "J.E. Jones" this possibly being the publisher's spouse the reformer abolitionist and suffragist Jane Elizabeth Jones née Hitchcock; 1816-1896. The paper's contents are devoted almost entirely to exposure of the injustices of the southern slave system with excerpts from Southern papers quoted and sharply rebuked by Jones' editorial comments. This issue also includes a brief notice of the progress of the recently-founded city of Houston Texas which now contained ".about 3000 people two hundred buildings four hotels thirteen retail stores and one wholesale establishment." The extracts quoted in this issue are generally dated from March April and May of 1837 leading us to suggest a May-June date for this issue. It is unclear how many issues of Facts for the People appeared. The only recorded example for a physical copy is at AAS which holds two unspecified issues with the annotation "sparse holdings."

Moderate toning two horizontal fold lines. A very good copy of a rare item. $350. This is a rare and detailed prospectus for a periodical published under the guidance of John Williams a barrister and author of The Law of Wills and Codicils 1810 The Laws of Trade and Commerce 1812 and A Treatise on the Study and Practice of the Law 1823. Since the prospectus states that issue "Number Three" will be published in January 1814 it may be assumed that two issues had already been printed but today no issues of any date are found in Library Hub OCLC or in major libraries including the British Library or Library of Congress. This prospectus then with its five-part table giving the "Proposed Arrangement" of topics may preserve all that remains of the content and intentions of this serial. The themes of the "Legal Department" included "1. A Copious Epitome of the Decisions in the Courts of Law and Equity as also in the Prize Courts. 2. A Full and Faithful Abridgement of the Public Statutes Immediately on Their Receiving the Royal Signature. 3. Dissertations on Constitutional Subjects. 4. Dissertations on the Various Branches of Law" and 5. Legal Biography. " Rarely will a prospectus state its own print run but this one does: 3000 copies. As we find only one other exemplar in the world at Yale Law School the rarity may be calculated with unusual exactness: the survival rate for copies of this prospectus being one fifteenth of 1%. Yale's catalogue record does not indicate a manuscript address. Ours is addressed on its verso to Robert Thorpe 1771-1847 attorney and Clerk of the Peace in Alnwick Northumberland. There are many extant copies of Williams's treatises. By contrast his periodical The Legal and Literary Journal and its prospectus are his rarest productions by. unknown books

réf. 4696JAPAN. Diary. January 14 1950 to late 1954. Various places Philadelphia Japan Fort Meade. A lengthy diary of an American officer Lieutenant Louis T. Holtz who was stationed in Japan during the Korean War. It was written on dozens of sheets of loose-leaf notebook pages and it contains many black and white photographs with captions as well as newspaper and magazine cutouts and brochures from places he visited. The diary begins on January 14 1950 in Philadelphia and he discuses seeing shows and such but notes that All in all this constituted a very enjoyable ten days of leave prior to going overseas. Sometimes I wish I could stay at home and live a normal routine life like everyone else. Other times I find myself eager to goAlmost two years ago who could forecast a war in Korea and the manner in which it would rip everyones life to shreds He writes on January 2 1951 from Kurume Japan: perhaps 10 years from now it the diary will be of interest if any of our civilization remains in 1961I collapsed 28 June and spent 3 weeks in the hospital with excessive fatigueI am the Officer-in-charge of the Kurume Office with an area of jurisdiction of approximately 1000 square miles. In April 1951 he mentions I am very busy in my position as OIC Officer In Charge. Its a full 7-day-a-week jobThe Korean mess has everyone guessing as to eh future of the Far Eastbeing the senior official in an area of jurisdiction of nearly 10000 square miles with dozens of mayors and police chiefs constantly catching my every word as official. The next couple dozen pages contain black and white photographs of protests in Japan and Holtzs commentary about the images including When people get hurt propaganda fills the air. The winner: the Kremlin always! Demonstrations take planning and people. You can always be sure the plans were framed in red and the spectators sprinkled liberally with dye-hard communist stooges Demonstrations & rallies are usually fantastically well organized. And as often as not they can be unbelievably orderly and But orderly or violent you can always be sure there is a professional communist keeping the sheep in line or arousing them to maximum fury. In September 1951 Holtz writes from Sapporro life in the Armed Services has been a miserable one because of one bad experience after anotherKurume was one of the most pleasant and enjoyable assignments I ever held. The 45th was without doubt the most bitter and least enjoyable. I gave up so much for so little. Holtz was in Californias Camp Stoneman in November 1951: with all the hundreds of officers here not particularly anxious to go overseas and with several actually fighting the assignment I was amazed to find that someone eager to return is sidetracked so abruptly. He was back in Japan by December and then wrote a lengthy entry entitled The Korean Story starting with Combat precautions make it mandatory that no diaries or personal papers be kept where they may fall into enemy hands and he spends the next seven pages describing his experiences in the Korean War. Holtz wrote in part: Things had not gone well at all with Trubotas unit prior to August 1951. After my arrival working results proved very satisfactoryThree other officers has also joined up in the interim between leaving Sapporo and going to KoreaWhen oriented in Tokyo they were told that the 45th Detachment would remain in Sapporo and they had already alerted their families to start to prepare to join them overseasI had to fight Trubota in order to be able to fight the enemy. In one occasion I was reprimanded for going to a forward observation post and not being personally available to answer the telephone at my CP and the section finishes with a photograph of the USS Marine Lynx the ship that brought him home. The diary continues with his being stationed at Marylands Fort Meade. There are photographs of the mansion he occupied in Kyushu Japanese women at the beach his fellow soldiers after a bowling tournament etc. There are Samples of United Nations propaganda leaflets dropped on North Korean positions early in the Korean conflict that show Truman and MacArthur a December 7 1950 letter signed by the mayor of Kurume City Japan.

1918réf. 216641918. González Obregón Luis. El Pensador Mexicano: Diálogos sobre cosas de su tiempo sacados del olvido 1918 returns José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi's reformist literary persona to circulation during the post-revolutionary reconstruction of Mexican historical memory. González Obregón a historian and chronicler of Mexico City selected and presented dialogues associated with "El Pensador Mexicano" Lizardi's influential pseudonym using early republican and nineteenth-century commentary to address national identity civic criticism and cultural inheritance. The issue belongs to Mexican literary-historical culture illustrating how post-revolutionary editors used earlier political writing to recover models of social critique and public intellectual life. González Obregón Luis. El Pensador Mexicano: Diálogos sobre cosas de su tiempo sacados del olvido. México: Cultura 1918. First edition. T. VI Núm. 6. Portada de Valerio Prieto. 78 pages and one leaf. Original printed wrappers with red architectural cover design incorporating Mexico City's Metropolitan Cathedral 8vo. Bibliographic records identify the work as part of the Cultura series and note Valerio Prieto's cover while Stanford records the imprint as México: Typ. Murguía 1918. The wrappers' cathedral imagery links the publication visually to Mexico City's colonial and national past while the text's title "sacados del olvido" states its recovery project directly. Published in 1918 during the unsettled years following the Mexican Revolution and the 1917 Constitution the issue participates in a broader effort to define Mexican civic culture through historical recovery rather than through contemporary polemic alone. González Obregón's treatment of Lizardi places journalism dialogue and moral criticism within a lineage of Mexican public letters useful for studying post-revolutionary literary nationalism and the preservation of nineteenth-century intellectual traditions. Covers heavily worn with edge chipping significant loss to upper right and lower margins and spine creasing; interior pages browned but intact with foxing and minor corner wear; good. A fragile Cultura-series issue connecting post-revolutionary Mexican historical consciousness with the legacy of Lizardi's public criticism. unknown books
