1938réf. 6107Atlantic City: Two Studios 1938. 29x23cm 16pp. plus 4pp ads. Illustrations. Mimeographed sheets recto only brad-bound along top in brightly illustrated glossy wrappers. Horizontal folds wear and light chipping to wrappers. Very good. First edition of Professor Seward's 35th annual reading this edition for the Aries sign. Nice bit of capitalism from the self-proclaimed "World's Foremost Astrologer" about which surprisingly little has been written. Seward authored several books the first of which appeared in 1915 a self-published work called The Zodiac and its Mysteries. He appeared on radio programs in the 20's and 30's and made sound recordings for Victor Records of sun sign information. This particular publication came from one of his three U.S. offices in Atlantic City one of the main attractions on the boardwalk. Scarce. OCLC locates just three other readings by Seward for Libra Taurus and Cancer. . Two Studios unknown

Some dust soiling to title page few marginal marks in pencil otherwise clean and complete. The Miraculous Prophecies Predictions and Strange Visions of Sundry Eminent Men &c. from the first dawn of literature touching revolutions that have happened and revolutions to come in which is given a most striking and faithful picture of the times with what is to follow together with an account of Babylon's fall or the destruction of popery and in that glorious event a general reformation over all the World. An interesting and scarce collection of prophecies many astrological and including those of Michael Nostradamus from 1555 extracted from the authors' original writings. This sensationalist compilation was published in the throws of the French Revolution many of the writings specifically dealing with that conflict. Also includes works from Christopher Love 1651 John Lacy 1707 Peter Jurieu 1687 Robert Nixon 1702 Baron Swedenbourg 1753 Robert Fleming 1701 Anne Trapnel 1653 John Tillinghast 1654 Complete Magazine 1764 Lord Chesterfield 1753 William Lilly 1645 Bishop Newton 1760 J.

1616réf. 6130London: Ex Officina Societatis Stationariorum printed by John Legat 1616. Small 8vo 4 294 66pp. Index. Woodcut device on title and initials. 18th century ruled calf spine lettered in gilt marbled page edges. Armorial bookplate of Adam Urquhart Esq. to front pastedown else clean internally and with minimal foxing. One of roughly half a dozen early English printings in the original Latin of the humanist poem by Neopolitan poet Marcello Stellato ca. 1500-1550. The work is divided into 12 books each for a sign of the Zodiac. Originally published in 1536 in Venice the poem was first translated into English by Barnaby Googe six books published in 1561 and then the complete Zodiake of Life in 1565. It was widely read and distributed in London and also taught in early English grammar school. Shakespeare almost certainly studied the work and it is thought to be the inspiration for his "All the world's a stage" monologue from As you Like It. Editions printed in London of this famous poem are markedly less common in the trade than other continental printings. Gardner 893. STC 19146.

1933réf. 5864Crystal Bay MN: Frederick R. White 1933. Two typed letters 11x8.5" 2 and 4 pp. recto only. One letter on two loose leaves and the second stapled at top margin. Generally very good with toning some foxing to versos few small edge tears and transmittal folds. Two very interesting letters from "Fredrick" Frederick White 1866-1939 to a Mrs. Erna Tayler discussing her progressed horoscope and offering financial advice. White was an American astrologer author and editor/publisher of The Adept: The American Journal of Astrology. One of the pioneers in the field of financial astrology White along with "Professor Weston" a regular contributor to The Adept heavily influenced W. D. Gann who published his famous novel The Tunnel Thru the Air in 1927. White's 1904 work A Guide to Astrology is included in Gann's reading list. The letters are full of specific financial readings. For instance the first letter of 1933 while advising Tayler on making investments goes on to expansively explain the reasons for the Depression were "a series of bad aspects between Saturn Uranus and Neptune." that some stocks were better to buy into than others and that Tayler's chart had favorable periods to play the lottery. These letters represent manuscript examples from the heyday of early financial astrology from one of the field's most influential figures. . Frederick R. White unknown
