Title pages in red and black and 38 captioned photographs 7-1/2 x 9-12 inches mounted on grey three-ring punched card. 1 vols. Photo Album 14 x 11in. A charming album chronicling two deer hunting trips outfitted by Paradise Fish and Game Club in New Brunswick with Evan G. Ross as Guide for both. The owner of the album is presumed to be Ken Davis as indicated in an article included at the back of the album written by Florence E. Davis for Harding's Magazine titled 'Buck Fever.' Florence - or "Flo" as Ken lovingly refers to her in the album's captions - shot her first buck on the mixed party trip to Sisson Lake Camp in 1939 a year after Ken's first successful hunting trip with Evan Ross. "While we have enjoyed many fine hunting experiences since this trip will always have a particular significance in that it established beyond any question of doubt that there was a mutual love for the outdoors. No man could have a finer hunting partner." Many of the photographs contain cheeky captions - "Watchful Waiting!!! Can't You Smell That Sizzling Bacon Pretty Pleased Aren't They Happy Mom - with two achieving magazine publication in 1940 the first in Field & Stream and the second in Hunting and Fishing. An attractive record of two hunting trips in the storied Canadian wildnerness. unknown
réf. 140949765New Brunswick NJ: New Brunswick Committee for the Defense of Assata Shakur 1970. Very Good. Original decal issued in support of Assata Shakur. Very Good with crease to left corner not affecting image area and rusty staple impression at upper edge. Printed by Holoubek Studios in Butler Wisconsin. An extremely rare piece of radical political ephemera. The legendary activist Assata Shakur left the Black Panther Party and joined the more radical Black Liberation Army in 1971. Two years later she and two other cell members were stopped by state troopers on the New Jersey Turnpike and two men died in the ensuing shootout. Shakur was charged with murder despite contradictory evidence and "Free Assata" became a rallying cry of the 1970s. The iron-on patch craze was also a hallmark of the 1970s and the New Brunswick Committee for the Defense of Assata Shakur naturally had some printed so wearers could proclaim their support for the incarcerated woman. The slogan "break de chains" links police handcuffs and the system they are used to enforce to the shackles of slavery. Also it bears mentioning this iron-on is one-half the ingredients of one truly badass T-shirt. [New Brunswick Committee for the Defense of Assata Shakur] unknown

[4], 5-254, [2], 8 [ads], pages. This portion of Carr's life story begins after his experience as a submariner in WWI. He serves as an officer of the Mercantile Marine and experiences incredible adventures and hardships before deciding to move his young family from England to New Brunswick. Times are tough in his new land. He describes the local poverty and exposes the awful social problems of rural New Brunswick, as well as his dramatic adventures at work, with a local trapper and as a member of the C.P.R. police. In short, Carr was a man's man and this book is full of manly adventures. Later in life, Carr [1895-1959] became very concerned about what he viewed as plans for world government and wrote Pawns in the Game and Red Fog Over America, books which sold by the hundreds of thousand. The present work is vital in understanding the background and motivations of this fascinating man. Above-average wear to publisher's black cloth. Binding intact. Gift greetings upon front free endpaper. Spine leaning. Dust jacket not included. Not pretty but a worthy reading copy. Book
1833réf. 858971833. Souvenirs of a Royal Divorce Trial: Lady Denman Apparently Giving to a Friend Examples of the Hands of Three of the Main Figures on Queen Caroline's Legal Defence Team Including An Example of the Hand of Her Husband Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench Manuscript Archive. Caroline of Brunswick Queen Consort 1768-1821. Autograph Notes from 3 of Queen Caroline's Defense Attorneys.2 pair of manuscripts one 7-1/4" x 4-1/2" 18.4 x 11.4 cm the other 8" x 6-1/2" 20.3 x 16.5 cm which bear the hands of three chief figures of the legal team for Queen Caroline the pair of MSS apparently having been given by Lady Denman to a Mrs. Impey in 1833 with a covering MS leaf 9" x 7-1/2" 22.8 x 19 cm whose recto gives the addressee's name likely in Lady Denman's hand above which is an endorsement likely in Mrs. Impey's hand. Typed transcripts included. Light edgewear and soiling fold lines very good condition overall. $1000. A little more than a decade earlier Denman had been one of the lead counsel on the defence team of Queen Caroline and had been conspicuously brilliant thereon. Mrs. Impey appears to have been sufficiently entranced with the celebrity of the defence team more than a decade later that she showed interest in having relics examples of the hands of three of the main figures on the team: Thomas Denman 1779-1854 later Lord Chief Justice; Henry Brougham 1778-1868 later Lord Chancellor; and Sir John Williams 1777-1846 later Puisne Justice at the Court of King's Bench. This desire was answered in full by Lady Denman who provided examples of the hands for Mrs. Impey whereupon Impey carefully annotated the group with headnotes for posterity. This is possibly the earliest example to survive of an autograph hunter seeking specifically autographs of a legal defence team from any trial: we are not aware of an earlier instance. The trial was a landmark in legal history and this clutch of autographs may well be a landmark in the history of the collecting of legal manuscripts. unknown

1820réf. List3998St. John New Brunswick 1820. 3 pp stampless folded letter measuring 7 x 9 inches to J. R. Parker at the Franklin Music Warehouse Boston with circular date stamp and manuscript postal markings. Folded with usual wear; very good. An 1820 letter from the Musical Academy at St. John New Brunswick to J. R. Parker at the Franklin Music Warehouse in Boston concerning subscriptions to Parker's Euterpeiad; or Musical Intelligencer the circulation of musical periodicals an order for the Masonick Minstrel and the submission of an epitaph for William Jackson of Exeter. The Euterpeiad was a Boston music periodical edited by John Rowe Parker and issued from 1820 to 1823; the Retrospective Index to Music Periodicals describes it as "the first true music periodical in the USA."1 It was devoted to musical information and belles lettres publishing criticism biography correspondence notices of musical societies and performances and discussion of new musical works and instruments. The writer first reports that he has secured four additional subscribers and asks Parker to send copies from the first of April then comments on the periodical's prospectus and its critical department: "Perhaps Mr. Ch. has obtained some more names. You will please consign him the Euterpeiad and he will of course consign you Cash. Criticism is a desirable division of your Prospectus. You may tell me to do anything to forward your views and I will feel happy in acceding." The second portion of the letter is addressed to the editors of the Euterpeiad submitting for publication the epitaph on the tombstone of William Jackson of Exeter the English composer organist writer and painter; the writer notes the epitaph's "elegant simplicity" and that "many of your highly respectable readers will consider it as a treat." The copied epitaph presents Jackson as a musician critic writer painter and man of letters: "In the Science of Music an Eminent Professor / Whose genius united elegant expression / Pure and Original Melody / With peculiar delicacy of Harmonic Combination / In Painting in Literature in every liberal study / That enlightens the Intellect or expands the . / His attainments were rare and distinguished . / A Writer novel and acute in observation. / A correct and discriminating Critic / Endeared to his select associates / By a conversation and demeanor / of Impressive and fascinating simplicity." The writer uses Jackson's epitaph to criticize literary pretension: "I wish that many of our Knights and Squires who assume a supercilious consequence would strive to deserve such an inscription. Men of real merit and genuine talent are always modest and attentive not like those presuming authors who are all title page and no contents". The writer also asks Parker to give the bearer Mr. Deering a copy of the Masonick Minstrel for his own use "for which he will pay you on delivery." A good early North American music and print-culture letter linking the Musical Academy at St. John Parker's Franklin Music Warehouse The Euterpeiad Masonic music subscriber networks and British music in the Atlantic world. 1 Retrospective Index to Music Periodicals "The Euterpeiad or Musical Intelligencer" accessed July 22 2026 https://ripm.org/journals/etp. . unknown
