41341Norwood S.A. : Printed and published by Sydney Partrige 1908. First edition. Octavo 190 x 120 mm original pictorial wrappers lightly marked chips to head and foot of spine; 104 pp headings printed in red; fore-edges uncut contents excellent with the contemporary ownership inscription of Doris Egerton Jones Adelaide-born feminist novelist and playwright. This early Australian private press publication is a collection of short stories by New Zealand-born Australian writer Kate Margaret Partridge 1871-1953. It was issued under the male nom de plume 'Sydney Partrige' like much of the writer's other literary output which included two completed novels one The Education of Clothilde written in partnership with 'Cecil Warren' a.k.a. Leonora Polkinghorne South Australian feminist appeared in serialised form collections of verse and contributions to various periodicals. Life's Wallaby was published in Adelaide in 1908 by her husband Hal E. Stone during the brief period when Stone was establishing his Koolinda Press in Norwood. It is quite likely the striking cover graphic was designed by one or both of the Partridges. ""Gossip"" in a review of the book in the Sydney Stock and Station Journal 12 May 1908 writes under the misapprehension that the author is a male - 'Good man Sydney' the reviewer declaims. The review is generally positive but ""Gossip"" lavishes special praise on one story in particular - The Metempsychosis of John Wedderburn - which is commended as a fine example of the horror genre 'worthy of Edgar Allen Poe'. At the end of the review readers are advised that they can write off to 'Sydney Partridge' at 90 Edward Street Norwood to secure a copy of the book for 1s. 2d. including postage. Kate Partridge was like her Adelaide friend and frequent collaborator Leonora Polkinghorne a feminist and suffragist. An example of her attitudes is delivered bluntly in one of her articles published in The Worker in 1908 under her usual pseudonym: '. no woman of powerful intellect should ever marry unless she would be content to sink herself in her children in doing which she gains nothing unless her desire for domesticity is stronger than her genius.' Doris Egerton Jones 1889 - 1973 was a talented author writing her first play at the age of 14 and her first novel the year after. In 1909 she enrolled in a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Adelaide and after graduating in 1911 enrolled in a Bachelor of Laws despite women not being permitted to practice in South Australia at the time. Jones wrote a letter of protest to the Premier John Verran and an enabling law was passed in 1911 although Jones had to then abandon her studies due to illness. Jones continued to publish works featuring a strong heroine as protagonist and published under her maiden name after marriage. It is clear the Adelaide women Jones and Partridge shared similar views about women's place in society which lends this particular copy of Life's Wallaby to have a quite special association.  hardcover

1838266969New Orleans 1838. unbound. 3 pages front and back each measuring 10 x 8 inches New Orleans February 1 1838. Written by Calvin Keith agent for Almina Partridge mother of United States Generals Samuel Partridge and John Milton Partridge. Almina is attempting to find out what real estate holdings her late husband has in New Orleans and Smith informs her in small part: ".I found myself in a rather awkward predicament. The Judge informed me the agent he had made the appointment Mr. Parker had admitted in Court that he had been in the State Prison for passing counterfeit money and informed me he could not now be removed without showing his present incapacity to manage her property. This information could only be obtained by depositions from the place where he resides.The last agent has not obtained any of the funds & I have much confidence in believing that his bail will not permit him to remove the funds and certainly not without securing him. On the whole I consider it rather a bad business & wish myself fairly out of it." Usual folds with no weaknesses; extensive pencil underlining on the second page; small chip on the right edge of the third page with slight loss of text. Good condition.<br/> <br/> unknown

19671301London: Macmillan & Sons 1967. 1st Edition. BOUND FIRST EDITION full volume of the first tentative measurement of a CMB anisotropy a slightly elevated temperature in the direction of a known quasar cluster. Wilkinson & Partridge's paper presents results "which appear to set rather stringent limits on the magnitude of possible density inhomogeneities in the universe" Wilkinson and Partridge 1967 719. ALSO included is Nicholas Shackleton's reassessment of Emiliani's conclusions from his 1966 analysis of the oxygen isotope ratios in Caribbean cores as an indicator of variations in total volume of glacier ice sheets. <br /> <br /> WILKINSON: "The CMB radiation is a direct relic of the early universe. It is a unique and deep probe of both the thermal history of the early universe and the primordial perturbations in the matter distribution" Tuluie "Cosmic Microwave Background" AJ 1996 15. Following "the discovery of the CMB early work focused on putting constraints on the isotropy of the radiation field: that would be an important part of establishing its cosmological origin and would put constraints on the peculiar motion of the galaxy relative to the Local Group and the Virgo Supercluster" ibid.<br /> <br /> Small "anistropies" inhomogeneities in directional measurements of temperature and polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation CMB allow scientists to test cosmological and astronomical theories including cosmic inflation the geometry of the visible universe and the distribution of galaxy clusters. Wilkinson and Partridge's paper again presents the first attempt to put experimental limits on the level of anistropy. <br /> <br /> SHACKLETON: Shackleton "concludes that glacial/interglacial variations in foraminiferal oxygen isotope records were primarily influenced by changes in the oxygen isotopic composition of seawater rather than temperature" Ravelo The Use of Oxygen and Carbon Isotopes 735. CONDITION & DETAILS: London: Macmillian & Sons. Ex-libris with very minimal interior markings and ghosting from the removal of a spine label. Complete volume bound in bright red cloth with red buckram at the spine. Tightly bound and very clean. The interior is bright and exceptionally clean throughout. Macmillan & Sons hardcover
