1419Best.-Nr. 143209Washington: the Smithsonian Institution September 14 1928. 4175-368 pp. Octavo. Original printed wrappers. Minor wear to the wrapper edges. All edges untrimmed. 82 black and white plates from photographs including many folding. Small tear on front wrapper otherwise a very nice attractive copy. Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections Volume 75 Number 5. Publication 2965. Walcott was an American paleontologist/geologist and was the administrator of the Smithsonian Institution from 1907 to his death in 1927. He is most famous for his discovery in 1909 of well-preserved fossils in the Middle Cambrian of the Burgess Shale of British Columbia near the town of Field. In 1914 Walcott married his third wife Mary Morris Vaux an amateur artist and avid naturalist who traveled with him on horseback for most of his expeditions in the Canadian Rockies. She was a gifted artist and made watercolor illustrations of wildflowers as she traveled with him. A selection of her work was published by the Smithsonian in 1925 in a spectacular edition of 5 volumes all done with a special colour printing process. We have in stock both the limited edition and trade edition of this publication. Charles was also a very gifted photographer and I believe most of the images published in the above title were taken by him. We have an original of his also for sale in the shop. Many of the images were taken with a panoramic camera and the results are spectacular. The images are so well done we prefer to think of this as a mountaineering title rather than a geology title. Still both reasons are compelling to own this very scarce title. 1928 the Smithsonian Institution unknown

It bears a circular Steubenville postmark and "Ship" handstamp in red and a manuscript "25" rate mark. It was sent by "care of Wm Bryan / New Orleans." In nice shape.

My profession is that you inquire for viz an Attorney I shall attend to your business. . . You speak of a commission. If that shall be the mode and opted; I would suggest the names of Joseph M.

Witnesses are allowed 50 cents per day each & Sheriff five cents per mile traveled & other fees to about 25 cents each. I mention these matters so that you may estimate the amount of funds necessary to cover expenses. . ." . Benjamin Cromwell Franklin was a lawyer legislator and the first judge in the Republic of Texas. Leaving his practice in Georgia Franklin moved to Texas to fight in its Texas Revolution. While serving as a private at the Battle of San Jacinto he was sent as a messenger afterward to inform President Burnet of the victory. He received a 320-acre land grant in compensation for his military serves and was one of the first settlers in what would become Houston. President Sam Houton appointed him to be a district judge and a member of the Republic's Supreme Court. He resigned in 1839 and moved to Galveston to once more practice law. He also served several terms as a state legislator before his death in 1873. It was as a private attorney that he made this request for assistance with an Ohio deposition. For more information see McDermott's "Were They Really Rogues: Desertion in the Nineteenth-Century U. S. Army" at the Nebraska State Historical Society website. At the time of listing nothing written by this important Texan is for sale in the trade. No items written by Franklin during the time of the Republic have appeared at auctions per the Rare Book Hub and ABSA. OCLC shows that Benjamin C. Franklin's papers are held at the University of Texas at Austin. . unknown

1982Best.-Nr. 5401Washington DC 1982. About very good. Lithographic poster 34 x 22.75 inches printed on cheap paper. A few small chips and closed tears to edges old folds some light creasing. A striking poster advertising a "Mass Protest" in Washington D.C. in support of El Salvador and "against the Reagan Policy of Oppression at Home and Intervention in the Third World!" The poster is decorated by illustrations of about two dozen helicopters at top but is otherwise comprised of text in variously-sized fonts. The poster was issued by the March 27 Coalition whose sixteen member organizations are listed at the bottom left corner of the poster and include the American Indian Movement Black Veterans for Social Justice People's Anti-War Mobilization Puerto Rico Solidarity Committee Women's Pentagon Action and many others. According to a contemporary article in The Washington Post the protest drew an estimated 23000 demonstrators assembled to protest U.S. policy in El Salvador on the eve of elections in that country. The demonstrators accused the Reagan Administration of supporting a "civilian-military junta in El Salvador that is locked in a war against leftist insurgents." The present poster is a call to action for the protest but also calls for the U.S. to support jobs "human needs" and "Self Determination for the People of Central America and all Oppressed Nations -- No More Vietnam Wars!" The poster also calls for unity against "the Reagan Policy of Oppression at Home and Intervention in the Third World" as well as a call for "No to the Draft! No to Racism! and No to Sexism!" OCLC reports a single record of an El Salvador protest poster from San Francisco in 1981 and a handful of examples of protest posters for El Salvador from later in the 1980s but we could not locate any other copies of this 1982 protest poster. unknown
