1867Best.-Nr. 69292London England 1867. Plain stiff paper wrappers soiled ink marks stitched. 15 x 11 cm. approx. 106 pp. of text rest blank ca. 10000 words in ink and occasionally pencil in a neat hand. The unnamed author commences three or four different stories penning a chapter or two for at least three of them. His subjects include a country house party and the interactions of the guests; a family in mourning and a solicitous guest; a young man down on his luck who forges his employer's signature on a check; etc. There are moments of humor and self-absorption by some of the characters food and drink seem to pre-occupy the author's thoughts there are curious turns of phrase and spelling aberrations. The first line of the first story introduces his main character: "My name is Nathiniel Lanyon. There's a Chirstian name for a man in my station of life." He goes on to say he was named after his grandfather who taught him how to drink "whisky of the strength of seven parts of the spirit to one of water.so I can now drink my evening comfort as strong as that with an unteared that is to say tearless eye." In another story a woman describes her turncoat friends as having been tested and their loyalty "snapped like rotten twigs." In another a young man is described as having "an head conically inclined." There are numerous ink corrections and alterations in the text. The rear pastedown has a short ink recipe for cold cream and a clipped article offering advice for brushing teeth with a combination of gin nutmeg and lemon juice. A clue to the author's identity comes on the final page of the notebook where he pens the text of an advertisement: "A dispenser to board out of the house in the country address stating terms to E.L. care of Messrs Gale & Co. Bouverie Street Fleet Street London." In the classified section of the November 9 1867 edition of the Lancet General Advertiser London: A Journal of British and Foreign Medicine George Fall: 1867 this ad appears almost verbatim: "Wanted by a General Practitioner in the country a DISPENSER; to board out of the house -- Address stating terms to E.L. care of Messrs. Gale and Co. Bouverie-street Fleet-street London." Presumably the author of these amateur sketches was himself a doctor. unknown books
1858Best.-Nr. 69335NP Allegheny County PA 1858. Broadside 49 x 23 cm. Text in two columns with caption title in large bold type. Old fold lines a few tiny holes and some toning previous owner's pencil margin notes. The text reads in part: "From necessity Fellow Citizens we are compelled to talk to you through the medium of Hand-Bills and Circulars the Newspaper Press of the County having been bought by the Railroads and Bondholders." The anonymous author warns fellow taxpayers their hard earned money is being plundered to finance the debts of "worthless and defaulting Rail Road Companies -- viz: The Steubenville Allegeheny Valley and Chartiers." The appeal challenges taxpayers to use their votes to elect a Commissioner and Treasurer who "will not suffer the tax to be levied or assessed." Statistics related to the debts for the cities of Pittsburgh and Allegheny as well as the county totalling $5500000 are given. Noted are roads "repudiated" in 1856 and 1857 and an estimate for ones that "will repudiate in 1858" helping to date this piece. "Will you cast your Suffrages for a Ticket pledged to enforce the collection of these Taxes. or will you rather use the power of the ballot box. to compel the Robbers who have been plundering you to surrender their ill-gotten Gains. The 1850s were an era of increasing infrastructure investments in railroads at least partially financed through taxes and bonds. The Pennsylvania Railroad chartered by the state legislature in 1846 ran its first excursion train to Pittsburgh in 1851. The Ohio & Pennsylvania Railroad chartered two years later began to use a station at Allegheny City in 1851. The two lines were connected by a bridge across the Allegheny River in 1858. The pencil notes on this copy posit a question: "What would City Property be worth without Public improvements." see: William Kenneth Schusler's essay part of his doctoral dissertation "The Railroad Comes to Pittsburgh". unknown books
1863Best.-Nr. 66742New York NY: P.W. Derham Printer and Stationer 15 Nassua Street Corner of Pine 1863. Folio broadside 48 x 29.5 cm. text in two columns beneath the title in display type. Old folds with slight damage; some foxing. Professionally rebacked. This broadside printed ca. 1863-4 offers a political analysis of the options for reconciliation with the Confederacy and a denunciation of the statements of Gov. Horatio Seymour. Printed by P.W. Derham a stationer from New York whose other surviving works include an 1862-4 broadside reprint of a pre-secession speech by Alexander H. Stephens Vice President of the Confederacy in which Stephens argues for preserving the Union Hummel 542: notes this is a "forged speech for the political campaign; 1864". The author of the broadside presents four scenarios for reconciliation with the South and examines the Confederate response to each by quoting several Southern newspapers including the Richmond Dispatch the Atlanta Intelligencer the Richmond Enquirer and the Charleston Mercury among others. The author proposes several solutions including applying for foreign intervention surrendering and appealing to the South to rejoin the Union and recognizing the independence of the Confederacy though invariably Confederate viewpoints making each option impossible are presented. For example the author proposes to "Hold out the olive branch confess our error in having resented the bombardment of Fort Sumter propose Peace and Union and with becoming dignity await the answer which the South cannot fail to give its faithful ally the Democratic Party" but then notes "that answer we have already." The author goes on to provide several quotes in which zealous Southern newspaper writers declare that they can never rejoin the Union again under any circumstances. The author also quotes several statements from Horatio Seymour who was running for re-election as governor of the state of New York implying he was a Southern sympathizer. Ultimately the author of the broadside in satirical style is unable to reach any convincing conclusion for the best method of attaining "Peace and Union" but represents an early rejection of the Peace Democrat or Copperhead positions which were to become so frequent 1862-64. Two listings found on OCLC: Lib. of Congress; NY Hist. Society. The New York Historical Society notes that the printer P.W. Derham was listed in New York City directories as at this address from 1863-1877 and that this broadside's purpose was "opposing the Democratic Party platform and the reelection of New York Democratic governor Horatio Seymour." Seymour 1810-1886 who had been elected governor of New York in 1852 and again in 1862 was running for re-election in 1864. He supported the Crittenden Compromise of 1860 in an effort to keep the South from seceding but supported the Civil War once it commenced. According to his biography in the DAB he continued to oppose some of Pres. Lincoln's policies during the war and "insisted that the extra-constitutional powers assumed by the Lincoln administration were the most serious problem arising from the Civil War." For his actions in re-establishing order after the New York Draft Riots Horace Greeley characterized Seymour as a temporizing "Copperhead." Seymour lost his bid for re-election. P.W.

1714Best.-Nr. 7280London: For Richard Wilkin 1714. Octavo 19 x 12.5 cm. 16 218 13 pages. FIRST EDITION. “Mary Kettilby’s collection of cookery recipes and medicinal and home remedies from a tasty “green-pease soop without meat” to gooseberry wine. Households that could not afford French cooks or French cooking came to form a growing audience for books by women that contained unpretentious recipes cut to suit a less costly cloth for pickling and collaring rather than ragouts. Where Hannah Woolley had led plenty of female cooks with their eye on the profitable middle market followed with books like Mary Kettilby’s collection of recipes 1714 and Eliza Smith’s Compleat Housewife 1734” Colquhoun Taste: The Story of Britain through its Cookery 2015. Kettilby’s book purported to be a collective effort: the preface stating that ‘a Number of very Curious and Delicate House-wives Club’d to furnish out this Collection’. Maclean however pages 79-82 doubts this and notes that evidence from later editions indicate Kettilby to be the main author. Apart from the Preface there is no introduction of any sort: the recipes follow immediately after the chapter headings. The book is clearly divided into chapters of recipes for food and for remedies but within the chapters there is no definite structure. For example the first chapter begins with six recipes for soups followed by recipes for collared beef ‘French-Cutlets’ collared mutton stewed pigeons broiled pigeons dressed turbot and then patties ‘for a Dish of Fish’. The recipes are given either as goals as ‘To make Hogs-Puddings’ or as titles sometimes with descriptions as ‘A very good Tansy’. Quantities are given in whichever units are convenient as ‘a Gallon of grated Bread’ ‘three Pounds of Currants’ or ‘nine Eggs’. Often quantities rely on the cook’s judgment as ‘as much Sugar as will make it very sweet’. Temperatures and timings are given when necessary as ‘a cool Oven: Half an Hour bakes it’. Later binding in 19th century style. Half-calf gilt-decorated spine marbled endpapers. The front paste-down contains the bookplates of two significant culinary collections: Thomas Scruggs & Margaret Cook and Marian Hatch. The Hatch bookplate was designed and engraved by British engraver Alfred J. Downey. With the bookseller's ticket of Philip C. Duschnes to the rear pastedown.

Best.-Nr. 31209Quarto 4 pages formerly folded in very good clean and legible condition. "My dear friend I thank you for your prompt and friendly information of the result of the election of which Br. Baker was also good enough to inform me by the same mail. At present however I find myself more engaged about the report of the Committee of Foreign relations than anything else and therefore you must pardon me for speaking once more of it. The letters which you have already received unfold pretty fully my views which I am sorry to find differ essentially from those of yourself & my friend W. Smith. I assent unequivocally to all you say as to the falsehood partiality and unmanly language of the Committee as to the pother made by them about defence as to the inefficiency of the means proposed and most of the other remarks made by you upon that blustering feeble production. But I cannot agree with you in your conclusions because it appears to me they involved what Chase used to be so fond of talking of a non sequitur. "You have used indecorous language – there fore we will not aid you in defending the country." "The country is now wholly without the means of defence therefore we call upon you to declare war." "You have a just cause of war against France; therefore make an immediate declaration against England." "Your means of defence as you propose them are not ample enough – we admit most of them may be useful but they should have gone further; therefore we will vote for none of them." My dear friend I cannot do wrong because the democrats are sinners and in my endeavours to fulfill the wishes of a party I cannot forget the interests of my Country. What is the situation that we are in About the unhappy causes of it you and I can never differ but what is the situation of the country The Government unhappily stand pledged to France. They will not break faith as they would term it with her. England perseveres in her orders in council and as you see from the late negotiations will not revoke them even upon an undeniable repeal of the French decrees with out obtaining certain other prerequisites which it is generally certain never can be obtained from France. In this state of things what are we the Federalists to do Shall we invite the government to yield on these points to England and embroil themselves with France Would they be willing to do this or would the public sentiment at all accompany us in such a request Is it our policy to continue the felo de se practice of holding ourselves up by intemperate language as British partisans and increasing against a popular prepossession thereby diminishing our numbers and our little remaining influence Will we act with the temperate wisdom of discreet politicians to urge in direct terms war preferable as we may alternately believe it to be to a long continuation of the present system at this time Could we if disposed to do so conceal the real object of such a proposition from our political opponents Could we certainly we could not carry with us the opinions of our own party Can we object to a gradual augmentation of the means of preparation consistently with our professions in a state of things having even a tendency to war What shall we say after having voted against army navy militia volunteers arming of merchantmen & in favor of a renewal of the nonimportation restrictions But my friend inefficient as you and I consider the proposed increases our federalists from the eastward are many of them of a different opinion – Some of them think they go to far and will not vote for them or their full extent as for instance the 10000 addl troops increase of navy &c on that ground. As at present advised I cannot but concur in the opinion of my friend Quincy & others that political consistency sound party policy genuine patriotism and a fair calculation of consequences all require my vote in favour of the resolutions of this course the democrats are very apprehensive – they anxiously wish us to oppose them knowing they can carry them or anything else in despite of our speeches or votes. Some of them are disposed to carry them further than the Comee so as to drive us by that means into opposition. They dread our doing anything that will have a tendency to remove from us the imputation of being tories & British partisans you will see no speech from me on this subject our friends inclining to think a silent vote altogether on our side of the house preferable. I am not of that opinion but unless something occurs to change our views will acquiesce. And now having sufficiently fatigued you with this subject I have only to say that our friends Hopkinson's ideas coincide on this subject much was nearly with my own than yours do and I … here the letter ends books
1925Best.-Nr. 0069221925. Wraps. Near Fine. Eighteen mounted black and white sepia toned photographs of a replica model of King Ludwig II's castle Neuschwanstein. 12mo. 18 by 13.5 cm. The model was constructed between November 20 1924 and May 1 1925 by an unknown artist. The replica was done with meticulous attention to detail -- it is very impressive. The model looks like one of the elaborate confections made from Lego blocks but the model predates Lego which began in 1932. The photos show the model from different angles and ranges with both panoramic and close-up photos. The photos are mostly near full page with two smaller photos sharing a page. The ink writing on the cover is in a cursive now long in disuse and so we aren't able to decipher it in its entirely unfortunately. unknown books
1837Best.-Nr. 21083Osnaburg Stark County Ohio: Heinrich Kurtz 1837. First Edition. Original muslin backed marbled paper over boards. Very good; some spotting. 8vo 57 3 - index pp. The book is signed with numbers and bound in fours with an inserted bifolium in each signature signed with the number and an asterisk. Thus there are 6 leaves in each of the five signatures. The paper is not watermarked. A most unusual manual of folk remedies and herbal compounds that contains 470 numbered paragraphs of succinct medical formulae cures and advice for man and animals. The copy offered here is without the title page that bears the Kurtz imprint. The listed title is taken from the copy at the NLM http://resource.nlm.nih.gov/8308472. At some point close to the publication date the title page was omitted or cancelled. After inspection of the title page in another copy it is worth noting that it was printed from an engraved plate and inserted. Kurtz may have run out of copies to insert. So what appears in the text is the truncated drop-title at the head of the text on page 1 thus omitting the imprint and title reference to the manuscripts of the famous Virginia physician that are as Kurtz claimed the basis for the text. The copy offered here is bound in a contemporary cloth backed boards. A coarse type of muslin was used as the backing and is the same on the three copies that have come into our possession. The bindings are identical on all the copies the pattern and color of the marbled paper are the same on two copies with the third having a color variant in the marbling. The books derive from one source and appear to have been bound in this manner so that they could be offered while masking the printer and the origin. The book is unlike anything Kurtz printed during his career see Durnbaugh "Henry Kurtz Man of the Book" in Ohio History v. 76 #3 1967 - i.e. religious periodicals hymnals ABCs.

1712Best.-Nr. 17916London: John Morphew 1712. First edn. 8vo pp. viii 265 139. Bound in recent calf backed boards by Grey Parrot with some scattered soiling and foxing a very good copy. Not in Halkett & Laing. Under the reign of Queen Anne England went to war to wrest the Spanish dominions from Philip of Spain and give them to Austrain Archduke Charles. This caused a split between the British Whigs who supported the war and the Torries who were less interested. Eventually the Peace of Utrecht was signed in 1713 stipulating for the permanent separation of the Crowns of France and Spain. John Morphew unknown books
1790Best.-Nr. 24683Dublin: Byrne 1790. First Irish Edition. 8vo pp. 160. Front hinge loose. Bound in rubbed and some worn leather backed paper boards paper lacking from front cover with some library stamps inside. A good copy for all that. Entirely printed in red. An English edition appeared the same year. See Tourneux Bibliographie de l'histoire de Paris pendant la revolution Francaise 3.13483; ESTC T108411 for the UK Edition; not in Martin-Waller or Saricks. The original French edition of this pretended to be the official list of pensioners published by the government. It was more likely issued to embarrass the ruling class portraying them as a group of loafers living off the work of the population burdened with taxes. It's appearance in England is an indication of the British Jacobean interest in the French goings on. The existence of a Dublin printing is especially strange given that the Irish working population spoke mostly Gaelic and this nasty work is not really aimed at the ruling class who were the subject of its satire. The British library Catalogue offers a possible attribution to Jean-Baptiste Martin Louis La Reynie de la Bruyere q.v. Querard 4.558-559. Byrne unknown books

1907Best.-Nr. 9072New York: Ullman Manufacturing Company 1907. First Edition. Original Wraps. Very Good. First Edition. Original Wraps. An example of early 20th century Black Americana ephemera or as some refer to as 'Negrobilia' referring to a wide array of materials including mass advertisements postcards tourist souvenirs etc. with the image of an African American universally portrayed in a derogatory and racist manner. These items were produced and manufactured by and for white audiences that enhanced the perception of white racial superiority and class status. These type of items are particularly challenging to many communities however many scholars and private collectors alike agree these materials are historical records and reminders of the racist history of the United States and should not be invisible. The puzzle postcard is an example of mass produced racial stereotyping manufactured for an actual mailing enclosure. The instructions on the outside of the mailer state: "Arrange the flaps by placing one over another in such a manner as to show ONLY the eleven pickaninnies." Reference: Goings Kenneth.
