1876réf. BK0068San Francisco 1876. Illustrated advertising cover franked with a three-cent Bank Note issue and mailed to Syracuse New York. 6 x 3 ½ inches. Very good condition with expected postal wear and light soiling. An attractive San Francisco advertising cover for the Davis Vertical Feed Sewing Machine promoting one of the more distinctive American sewing machine mechanisms of the period. The cover was issued by Mark Sheldon general agent for the company at 735 Post Street and contains a small illustration of the machine and a lengthy advertisement printed across the reverse. The advertisement emphasizes the Davis machine's patented vertical-feed mechanism contrasting it with conventional machines in which the needle and feed operated separately. Davis claimed that its system moved the fabric while the needle remained in the work allowing it to pass over seams and ridges without puckering or uneven feeding. The company promoted the machine extensively during the 1870s and 1880s and surviving trade literature emphasizes the same technical advantages.1 The text further notes awards received by the Davis machine including the Scott Medal in 1875 and a Grand Medal at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition of 1876. Sheldon's San Francisco agency gives the piece an additional western commercial context at a moment when sewing machine manufacturers were expanding aggressively through regional agents. 1 "Advertisement for the Davis Vertical Feed Sewing Machine The Davis Sewing Machine Co.

1974réf. 236491974. John von Neumann's final inquiry into artificial computation and the physiology of thought published posthumously from the manuscript prepared for his proposed Silliman Lectures at Yale. Invited to deliver the lectures in 1956 von Neumann planned a mathematical comparison of electronic computers and the nervous system but illness prevented their presentation and left the text unfinished at his death in 1957. The resulting book examines processing speed memory digital and analog operations coding and logical reliability while asking how the brain achieves complex results with components slower and less exact than those of an electronic machine. Von Neumann John. The Computer and the Brain. New Haven and London: Yale University Press 1974. First Edition Eighth printing. The preface by Klara von Neumann recounts Yale's invitation her husband's intention to compress the lectures into a single week and the composition of the manuscript during a period of government service and declining health. The text is divided between "The Computer" and "The Brain" with sections on mixed numerical procedures precision modern analog and digital machines memory organs the neuron nerve impulses stimulation criteria memory within the nervous system codes and "The Language of the Brain Not the Language of Mathematics." Von Neumann approaches the nervous system through the architecture of the electronic machines he helped define but repeatedly identifies the limits of direct comparison. He contrasts the high speed and precision of computing components with the slower operation of neurons then considers how parallel activity statistical organization and mixed digital and analog processes might account for the brain's reliability and capacity. His concluding distinction between mathematical notation and the brain's own operational language anticipates later work in computational neuroscience neural networks and theories of distributed information processing.

1900réf. 205091900. EngineeringInvention and Business Felt Dorr Eugene. British Patents for Improvements in Calculating Machines 1900-1904 document the development of one of the earliest commercially successful key-driven mechanical calculators reflecting the rapid mechanization of clerical labor at the turn of the twentieth century. These patents relate to the Comptometer first introduced in 1890 by the Chicago firm Felt and Tarrant and represent the extension of American technology into British commercial and financial systems. Banking insurance railways and trade demanded increasingly rapid numerical computation at the turn of the century meaning mechanical calculation was becoming integral to infrastructure. Calculating Machines. British Patents: together 2 patents. Patent No. 19675 1900 includes 3 pages and 3 folding diagrams; Patent No. 13094 1904 includes 11 pages and 5 folding diagrams. 1900-1904. The 1900 patent specification describes modifications "intended to adapt such machines to be used in making calculations in British money" addressing the complexities of pounds shillings and pence within a decimal-based mechanical framework. The 1904 patent details improvements to the Comptometer's registering wheels refining accuracy and mechanical efficiency. These documents trace the technical evolution of Felt's invention whose origins lay in his 1885 "macaroni box" prototype and whose commercial success positioned the Comptometer as a principal rival to Burroughs calculators in the early twentieth century. Together the specifications and folding diagrams provide primary evidence of iterative design in early computing machinery and the formal legal mechanisms through which intellectual property structured industrial competition. Disbound some leaves loose. Overall very good. As working technical documents issued during a formative period in mechanical computation these patents illuminate the foundations of modern calculating technology in the pre-electronic era. unknown books
