Mr. Seidewitz was one of the foremost florists in Maryland ex-Mayor of Annapolis 1899-1901 former president of the Rotary Club and the President of the Baltimore Florists' Exchange. This Exchange was said to be the first organization in America dedicated to the exchange of trees plants flowers and seeds in addition to the general sharing of horticultural knowledge among horticulturists and tradesmen who bought and sold flowers. Oddly enough after Mr. Seidewitz was successful in ushering this Exchange into fruition even propelling the construction of a new building to house this mutual florists' association Mr. Seidewitz became a cruel victim of bullying by Baltimore Society during the first World War. According to the book The Illusion of Victory: America in W.W.I by Thomas J. Fleming "shortly after war was declared the florist met some officers from several German ships that had been trapped in Baltimore's harbor since 1914. They were in a gloomy mood lamenting their long separation from friends and family and the prospect of internment as enemy aliens until the war ended. Seidewitz bought them beer and they drank together. Touched by their plight the florist kissed one of them on the forehead in an attempt to comfort the man. Word soon swept Baltimore that Seidewitz had 'kissed a German.' His floral business collapsed. He was expelled from the Rotary Club after directors refused to let him speak to the members in his own defense." On August 24 1918 Seidewitz committed suicide by revolver while his family was downstairs in their home on Old Pimlico Road. Thos. J Sheubrooks paperback books

1690réf. BB005L'ARMESSIN II Nicolas de 1632–1694 Habits des Metiers et Professions. Paris: chez N. de L'Armessin ou chez la Veuve de N. de l'Armessin Rue St. Jacques à la Pomme d'Or N.d. circa 1690–1695. 4to. 62 ff. last two plates with restoration; bound in green morocco gilt second-half of the 19th century signed Chambolle-Duru. A remarkable collection of 62 engraved copperplates representing the earliest impressions of fantastic figures composed of the tools or attributes of their trades created and produced about 1690 onwards thru 1694 enhanced at the time with brilliant hand-coloring silver and gold paint. These prints are a marvel of inventiveness showing the inspiration and influence of the 16th century painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo 1527-1593 who chiefly imagined only heads now extended and re-invented for the Court of Louis XIV. Amongst the most famous prints of the late 17th century their printing history is rather complicated. Nicolas I de Larmessin or L'Armessin 1632-1694 designed engraved and published approximately 62 plates in his lifetime. His widow Marie Bertrand added 14 plates from his unfinished designs and his younger brother Nicolas II c.1645-1725 engraved a further 21 plates from 1695 to 1720s. All of the prints were individually published with re-engravings in reverse by the younger brother which often simplified these earlier designs by omitting background details. Altogether it has been suggested that a total of 97 images were eventually issued. From the Beauvillain library ex-libris by Jouas.

1978réf. WALTER-FILM005560Hollywood: Twentieth Century Fox 1978. Vintage original film press kit printed portfolio 12 x 9" 31 x 23 cm. with 10 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm. black-and-white print still photos laid in and fifteen promotional inserts of between 1 and 3 pp. in length. Some wear to extremities of the printed folder a few circlings of text in pencil overall near fine in very good printed portfolio wrappers. Paul Mazursky wrote and directed Jill Clayburgh in this classic feminist film. "Erica is unmarried only temporarily in that her successful wealthy husband of seventeen years has just left her for a girl he met while buying a shirt in Bloomingdale's. This movie shows Erica coming to terms with the break-up while revising her opinions of herself redefining that self in its own right rather than as an extension of somebody else's personality and finally going out with another man. Erica refuses to drop everything for Saul an abstract expressionist painter simply out of love for him because he expects her to. It is not so much loneliness that is her problem and the problems that men flitting around this newly 'available' woman like moths round a flame bring to her sense of independence."
