1892Best.-Nr. List3690N.p. 1892. Folio 9 ½ x 11 ½ inches. 17 pp. Pink printed newsprint wrappers with photographic portrait of John H. Sparks on the front cover. Covers detached paper toned and fragile as typical of newsprint; fair to good overall. An unrecorded music folio issued for the traveling circus of John H. Sparks in the early 1890s self-described as “The Best Collection of Music Ever Published.” Sparks based in Ohio was building his circus during this period into a touring wagon show combining trained animal acts equestrian performances and sideshow attractions. Sparks toured widely presenting afternoon and evening performances and like other traveling acts relied heavily on printed ephemera for revenue. Songs include “Waiting to Hear the Verdict” by Chales Osbourne; “Annie Reilly” by Johnnie Carroll; “Don’t Abuse the Old Folks” by Will H. Fox; “When the Sea Gives Up its Dead” by J.J. Nolan; “When Summer Comes Again” by James Thornton; “The White Squadron” by Arthur West; “Wait Till My Ship Comes Home” by John Walsh; “My Old Dutch” by Charles Ingle; and “Buy a Nice Little Home in the Country” by Ed. Barry. Several compositions are copyrighted by Frank Harding 1864–1939 at the Royal Copyright Office which is peculiar and suggest the possibility that this was for an English audience though Sparks is not known to have toured England during this period. Harding was a New York music publisher who operated Frank Harding’s Music House at 229 Bowery during the formative years of Tin Pan Alley. unknown

Best.-Nr. 10291Circa 1910. With stamp of 'Mrs. Gill Translating Office Ludgate Hill London EC.'. The story on nine numbered 4to pages with a covering page carrying the title: 'THE BATTLE OF THE WAVES FOR FREEDOM. By Maxim Gorki.' On the rectos of ten 4to leaves attached by a brass pin. Text clear and complete at 26 lines to the page. On worn discoloured paper watermarked 'CONQUEROR LONDON' with loss to extremities. Mrs Gill's purple oblong stamp in bottom left-hand corner of reverse of last leaf: 'Mrs. GILL <.> ATING OFFICE <.> GATE HILL <.> ON EC.' A political parable with the narrator in a 'little sailing boat' told by 'an old weather-beaten tar' how 'the sea does not allow itself to be tied and bound'. First paragraph begins: 'A brilliant sun and a warm air. The sea was sinking into a calm though every now and then it rose again in slow majestic waves.' Certainly dating from before 1915 by which time Mrs Gill's Typing Office had moved from Ludgate Hill to Paternoster Row and probably dating from the period of Gorky's first foreign exile 1906 to 1913. Mrs L. A. Shiffner was active as a translator from Russian in 1904; Mrs Alice Gill did work for Gissing see his Collected Letters. I have yet to trace a published version of this story. [Circa 1910.] With stamp of 'Mrs. Gill, Translating Office, Ludgate Hill, London EC.' unknown
