1936rif. H40351New York: Amateur Astronomers Association 1936. Very good. Old cloth 3-ring binder with acetate sheaths containing the issues. This started out as a 4 pp. periodical but expanded in later issues. In 1936 the journal merged with The Sky published by Hayden Planetarium which subsequently merged with The Telescope in 1941 to become Sky & Telescope which is still being published. Condition is mainly very good although the first three issues we have have some damage to fore-edges. The first issue has a supplementary sheet laid in "Professor Einstein Sends Greetings to the Amateur Astronomers Association" reprinting in facsimile the handwritten note with a printed translation and a facsimile of another note from Einstein. We have Vol. I nos. 1 & 2 April and May 1929; Vol. 2 nos. 1 September 1929 - 9 May-June 1930 -- the April 1930 issue has a cover story on the discovery of Pluto then considered the ninth planet. Pluto was first discovered on February 18 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh at the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff Arizona.The discovery was announced on March 13 1930 in the Astronomical Journal.; Vol. III nos. 1 October-November 1930 - 7/8 May-June 1931; Vol. IV nos. 1 September-October 1931 - 8 Summer 1932; Vol. V nos. 1 September-October 1932 - 3 March 1933 -- these expanded to 6 pp. each; Vol. VI nos. 1 - 3 Winter & Spring 1933-1934 - Summer 1934 -- beginning with Vol. VI these are 16 pp. each; with the Spring issue cover story on Hayden Planetarium; Vol. VII nos. 1 Autumn 1934 - 3 Spring 1935; Vol. VIII nos. 1 Autumn 1935 - 3 Spring 1936. We don't know if we're missing any or not but it's a nice early run of this rare astronomical journal. Amateur Astronomers Association unknown

A Very Good example overall. Collection of four lectures delivered by Einstein at Princeton for the Stafford Little Lectures in 1921.

1921rif. 5136166150> EINSTEIN Albert. Relativity: The Special and the General Theory. New York: Henry Holt and Company 1921. "3rd Large Printing." Octavo. Original blue cloth lettered in gilt on the front board. Portrait frontispiece of Einstein. Original publisher's dust jacket printed in black on tan paper. Cloth exceptionally clean and bright for this title the gilt lettering sharp; minor wear at extremities. Dust jacket with a moderate chip at the crown of the spine extending slightly into the upper panel smaller chips and short closed tears along edges and general toning consistent with age. Near Fine in Very Good- jacket. Einstein's celebrated non-technical exposition of his revolutionary theory written to explain the principles of relativity to an educated general audience. First published in German in 1916 and translated into English by Robert W. Lawson in 1920 the work quickly became the most widely read introduction to modern physics in the early twentieth century and played a major role in disseminating Einstein's ideas beyond the scientific community. Copies of the early Holt printings rarely survive in their original jackets which were printed on thin paper and typically discarded or heavily worn through use. The present example a 1921 "3rd Large Printing" represents an unusually early survival in dust jacket. At the time of cataloguing only one earlier jacketed printing appears to be offered on the market making this among the earliest obtainable examples of Einstein's landmark work in its original publisher's jacket. The survival of the jacket combined with the remarkably clean cloth makes this a particularly desirable example of one of the foundational popular works of twentieth-century science.
