réf. 019138San Francisco: International Hotel Support Committee Publisher. Unbound. Good. no date presumed late 1970s. Single sheet legal sized light pink paper. Printed on both sides with bilingual text: Spanish on one side English on the other. A flier for a demonstration to stop evictions at the International Hotel in San Francisco. Given that the last tenants were evicted in August 1977 it appears this demonstration may have been a last ditch effort. The flier describes public support for the cause and gives a list of four demands The International Hotel was a hotel located in the Manilatown section of San Francisco and provided low income housing to mostly elderly Filipino residents. Beginning in the late 1960s developers sought to evict its residents in order to build a parking garage. Students residents and city activists organized and protested for years against the eviction efforts including poet Al Robles. GOOD condition. The English side has a strip of white paper glued along the top edge obscuring some of the large captions. The paper bears a partial handwritten note that doesn't appear related to the flier. Minor wrinkling/creasing. International Hotel Support Committee, Publisher unknown

A picture of this book is available upon request by email. An important book by one of the great botanical explorers and naturalists of the nineteenth century, the Italian botanist, spent time at Kew, where he met Charles Darwin, William Joseph Hooker and James Brooke, the Rajah of Sarawak. The latter lead him to spending 3 years from 1865 to 1868 undertaking research in Sarawak, Brunei and other islands off present-day Malaysia and New Guinea, where he discovered many new species of palms, and many other plants such as a phosphorescent fungus that was bright enough to read a newspaper placed by it. Beccari was in Sarawak during 1865-67 where he collected over 800 bird skins including 40 not previously discovered of unrecorded species. He describes nature, the people, Dyaks and their customs in some detail, prior to the major impacts of the twentieth century, and describes his return to Sarawak some 20 years later, where he formed a botanical garden. He discovered the titan arum, the plant with the largest unbranched inflorescence in the world, in Sumatra in 1878. This edition also contains the valuable and detailed appendix on the forests of Borneo, which are currently being logged to extinction. The preface is by naturalist F. H. H. Guillemard who also wrote a book of his travels in the area. The later reprint does not include the maps of the original.
