Jacket has a bit of scuff and bump here and there but is as servicable as a utility infielder.</p><p>Photo on request.</p> Fondo Editorial hardcover

238087vp 1973. 4to. Fine with corrections with envelopes on occasion. 4to. Jack O'Connor served as the Shooting Editor of Outdoor Life for 31 years and is considered one of the great hunting and gun writers of the twentieth century. Opinionated and witty his personality shines through in this collection of letters. <br /> <br /> On animal classification: "Between us girls I think the American taxonomists have gone hog wild on sub-species. I think the British are much smarter.They say that all caribou are one species and they have damn few sub-species." <br /> <br /> On an acquaintances and associates: "As I remember him he was a little guy dark and strictly a bastard"; "Bill Steigers is likewise a big-bore nut playing with a large bullet or gazing at a big hole in the end of a barrel gives him a deep and voluptuous satisfaction often causing tumescence in his male organ"; "From all I can tell this Earl Etter is a real vicious bastard fat-headed quarrelsome and mean. One thing I know for certain is that he is an ignoramus"; "This Herter is quite a guy. I think he's at least half nuts maybe more. He has more misinformation in his books than the Encyclopedia Britannica has information."<br /> <br /> On the Hotel Edison: "I have never set foot in the Hotel Edison but I have heard it was a dump."<br /> <br /> On a failed bear-hunting expedition: "Our companions were two young Englishmen.Both had very attractive wives.We really had a grand time but those guys were the spookiest bear hunters I have ever seen in my life. They missed two good trophy grizzlies--one at 30 yards and one at 110 yards--and a very good black bear at about 50 yards. In all cases the bears were standing."<br /> <br /> On the Civil War: "I am a Civil War buff.One of these days I am going to do an article that will make a lot of Southerners scream like catamounts. The thesis of the piece will be that Lee was an overrated general who made his reputation on a bunch of fiddle-fotted sic and gutless Union generals."<br /> <br /> On family histories: "My uncle Bill O'Connor got a girl knocked up when he was a senior in law school in California and took it on the lam.My mothers' people were Kentuckians but they were not planters--just prosperous farmers."<br /> <br /> On criticism: "Bill Rae has got hundreds of these nut letters.I always tell these creeps that if they don't like to read stories about killing birds and animals and catching fish they should read something besides Outdoor Life Field & Stream and Sports Afield because these magazines are about shooting animals and birds and catching fish" Ellen Enzler Herring Jack O'Connor: Catalogue of Letters 5 6 34 71 86 111 138 142 148 176 184 200 252 261 & 263 unknown

1900188011900. Women SPORTS Six action shots of a women's fencing dual in the early 1900s. 4" x 6" each. Stereoview on cardboard mount. N.p. Captioned "Le Duel" with each photograph numbered. Historically fencing has been primarily a men's sport and though women have been fencing for hundreds of years there was still heavy stigma against women taking up any sport. After WWI many French fencing schools opened up classes for women to grow their economy. This act opened up the doors for women to eventually be allowed to fence in the Olympics in 1924. This set of six stereoviews showcase two women fencers with a female referee and a group of female viewers. Each stereoview is numbered in the order of the duel; the first shows the two women facing each other with their swords down the second and third show the women mid duel and the last three show the victor heralding over the defeated opponent with two women side by side helping her recover. Minor wear to edges some sunning and wear to photos. Overall only good condition. unknown
