1960réf. 322947San Francisco: Galley Sail Publications 1960. Softcover. Very Good. First edition. Small octavo. 40pp. Very good or better in toned stiff wrappers slightly rubbed with some wear along the spine and a few scattered spots. Signed or Initialed by William Carlos Williams Cid Corman Philip Lamantia Max Finstein as well as several other poets we could not definitively identify. It's additionally signed by Betty Boop John Paul Jones and Napoleon though we have reason to believe these are not genuine given that one is a cartoon character and the other two had been dead for more than 100 years at the time of this issue's publication. These were done fictitiously by one of the contributors. Nevertheless an interesting and possible unique copy of this poetry magazine. Galley Sail Publications unknown books

1855réf. 2763Guatemala 1855. Fair. 3pp. on a bifolium. Small folio. Leaves no longer integral. Heavy chipping and wear at edges quarter-sized hole through upper center of both leaves but only a small amount of text actually affected. Moderate tanning and soiling. A scarce 1855 broadside in which Guatemalan caudillo Rafael Carrera addresses Hondurans regarding the perceived malign intentions of their president José Trinidad Cabañas. Honduras with Cabañas at the helm had been in conflict with Guatemala since 1853 and it was Cabañas' stated goal to reunite the states of the defunct Federal Republic of Central America to which end he also invaded Nicaragua in 1854. In this address Carrera states the need to invade Honduras in order to halt the aggressions of Cabañas reiterates his desire for peace and friendship with "true" Hondurans and promises his assistance in reestablishing a reasonable government in their country. It reads in part: "En esa contienda las simpaticas del pueblo de Guatemala vecino y hermano vuestro no podian ser dudosas. El General Cabañas no contento con haber estado de mucho tiempo atras fomentado y auxilando la guerra desastrosa de la montaña en esta República invadió á mano armada nuestro territorio no teniendo comprometer la suerte de muchos hondureños arrancados á sus pacífcas ocupaciones. En estas circunstancias habeis vuelto los ojos á Guatemala y requerido su amistosa cooperacion para ayudaros á establecer en Honduras un Gobierno regular que consagre sus esfuerzos á la mejora interior de todos los ramos y al mantenimiento de las buenas relaciones con los Estados vecinos."
