193884009Chicago ILL: Hoosier Hot Shots 1938. First Edition. Quarto. 30.5cms. Publisher's decorative printed paper wraps magazine format. 48pp. Light dog-earing and creasing to extremities some minor soiling and ink spotting to the wraps some chipping to spine panel but no appreciable loss; internally clean. A very good copy with light wear. <br /> <br /> A collection of musical numbers photographs and band 'lore' in the form of captions and humorous tableaux. The band originally formed in Indiana got their name after turning up late to a radio performance and earning the annoyance of the announcer who snapped "Get in there you Hoosier Hotshots!" and the title stuck. The band had a 40 year career on stage radio and screen mainly characterized by novelty numbers that were catchy and could be danced to but with titles like "From the Indies to the Andes in his Undies." there wasn't much danger of their snappy comedy jazz being taken seriously. Having said that dominating the domestic novelty circuit in the 1940's and 50's was not something to be sniffed at. Hoosier Hot Shots unknown

1789List2972New York City: J. & A. M’Lean 1789. Four pages measuring 12 ¼ x 9 ½ inches. Marginal holes folded with tear at central fold; else fine. The New-York Daily Gazette was a newspaper published by J. and A. M’Lean publishers best known for being the first to publish the collected Federalist papers in 1788. Of special interest in this edition of the Gazette are reports on the early days of the French Revolution and relations with Indigenous peoples in Ohio and an advertisement for a reward of $16 for the return of two escaped enslaved men.<br /> <br /> In France at the time the Estates-General—wherein the National Assembly was formed—had just disbanded and the Bastille had not yet been stormed. The Gazette’s report is baffled at the severity of violence in the country:<br /> <br /> “There never was known in the history of that country such tumults as have arisen within the last few weeks throughout almost all the Provinces. We may suppose that from the frenzy which has seized the people that the scarcity of grain must have been nearly equal to a famine or that there has been gross neglect in the inferior offices of governments. It is however not impossible but that this scarcity has been in some instances the plausible pretext for committing violences which might originate in other causes. It is well known that the most unhappy seditions exist in many places on the difference of opinion in the mode of convening the States General of the kingdom. . At Alix several people lost their lives. The town-house was attacked the public corn magazines broke open and the military put to flight. But at Aulps the tumults were most outrageous and we are now confirmed in a report which at first seemed incredible that at this latter place the mob killed the Chief Magistrate of the town by name Montserra in the most barbarous manner. They broke open his house and having seized his person tore him limb from limb after dragging him along the streets as a sight.â€<br /> <br /> The situation is violent back in the States as well. A report from the “Western Territoryâ€â€”here referring to the land that would become Ohio— tells of the “very hostile appearance†of the “Indians . in that quarterâ€:<br /> <br /> “a Captain King belonging to the New England settlers had been murdered by a party of them about fifteen days previous to his departure near the mouth of the Hockhocking river as he was reconnoitering some ground for the purpose of laying off a town and that Captain Brandtt sic is a leading instrument in endeavouring to rouse his yellow bretheren to commit depredations on the white inhabitants.â€<br /> <br /> New Englanders the first Euro-Americans to settle Ohio had begun to do so only a year prior when Ebenezer Sproat Rufus Putnam and others established the town of Marietta. By “Captain Brandtt†the Gazette is likely referring to Thayendanegea also known as Joseph Brant 1743–1807 a Mohawk political and military leader who allied with Great Britain during the American Revolution. Thayendanegea had recently met in Michigan with leaders from a number of Indigenous nations and released a declaration that the Ohio River would be the eastern boundary of their territory.<br /> <br /> Lastly an advertisement promises a $16 reward for the return “home†of two fugitive enslaved men:<br /> <br /> “Run away from the subscriber living near the Long Calm Fork of Gunpowder on Sunday the 31st of May to young NEGRO MEN one named Harry about 26 years of age five feet seven or eight inches high straight and well made has a down look when spoke to and is very lively . NATT about 23 years of age five feet ten or eleven inches high a little bow legged and very active has lost one of his upper fore teeth has a bold look and is rather talkative . neither of them very black both fond of drink particularly Natt who is impertinent and quarrelsome when in liquor; they are sensible artful fellows and will probably endeavour to pass for free Negroes.â€.

1859017039Washington DC: Gales and Seaton 1859. Tabloid. Good. Side folding large tabloid newspaper. A single issue of this long running newspaper published in Washington DC first published in 1800 and publishing until 1870 with an eventual bias toward conservative Whig policies. Besides the usual ads and political news this issue contains two "Was Committed" notices last page bottom right one pertaining to Mary Norris George Park and Sally King the other pertaining to Lewis West. All four were African-Americans with Mary Norris George Park and Lewis West being enslaved people from enslaver Robert E. Lee. According to the US National Park Service website devoted to Robert E. Lee's Arlington House Memorial Mary Norris George Parks and another man Wesley Norris believed they were free based on a provision in the will of George Washington Custis. Based on this knowledge the three emancipated themselves traveling to Pennsylvania. They were all captured in Maryland. According to contemporary newspaper accounts New York Tribune in June 1859 Lee had the re-captured African-Americans whipped. Wesley Norris himself wrote an article in the Anti-Slavery Standard in 1866 which provides his account of the whipping. Early historians and biographers dismissed both accounts considering them to be accounts used for anti-slavery propaganda. Lee himself was silent on the subject with many of his contemporaries and historians taking his silence as a denial. However modern research suggests the accounts of Wesley Norris and others were true dispelling the myth of Lee as benevolent enslaver perpetuated by earlier historians. The first notice states that Norris Park and West were committed to jail on May 26th and that "George and Mary say they belong to Col. Robert Lee of Fairfax County Virginia." The complexion and height of all three are given as well as descriptions of the clothing they wore. Sally King asserted that she was free living in Washington with a Mrs. D. Bread. According to the piece they all initially left Washington on May 22nd 1859. The second notice contains the same information as the first although it appears Lewis West was jailed on May 27th but also asserted he "belongs to Col. Robert Lee." Both notices request that the "owner or owners" come forward and pay all charges due. Also present is a notice of "young servants for sale" indicating the availability of several girls from ages 11 to 15 as well as young men from 21 to 25 years old. All were apparently located in Georgetown. The newspaper is in GOOD condition. Paper split chipped and deteriorating along the spine with very slight loss of letters to some of the "was committed" ads. Horizontal and vertical fold creases present. Moderate toning along the spine edge. Small hole worn through at the intersection of the fold creases. Some wrinkling and creasing to the paper. Several small tears along the extremities.

Most of the documents concern estate administration and debt collection: a letter from Charleston presses the firm to “force the debtor to pay†August 20 1855; one from New York complains of “a rascal . trying to swindle meâ€; and a different Charleston writer complains that a boarder and his father had stiffed him on multiple bills:<br /> <br /> “I have not seen or heard from old McLeod since although I have written over one doz letters to him he has acted in a villanous manner to me a common hod carrier would not act in the manner he has Done although claiming to be a Class Leader in the Methodist Church . ‘Excuse’ his mother was sick &c&c which I have since learned was all a fabrication .

They were enslaved by the estate of Simon Kelley 1787–1852 which was being handled by his daughter Sarah 1812–d. Sarah Kelley’s brother-in-law Castus Belk writes:<br /> <br /> “I received your letter requiring me & the other parties concerned to arrange the matter with the old lady on the terms I have assertained by Sarah Kelley’s husband Mr Drury Boykin that the old lady will come to no agreement as yet But I have sent her a return showing to give her concent to the sale of the negros and for her to assigne which if she dose will be presented to you by Mr B Kelley if she dose assigne it and it answers to the perpose intended I shall be glad to hear from you for the old lady intendes to make no defence at all.

I spoke 55 minutes Marley followed spoke 45. The trial was at Brown’s house he gave his testimony in bed.

193381752Moscow; New York; Leningrad: Various; Intourist 1933-1966. 90 with a few additional duplicates pieces of ephemeral material ranging from page copiously illustrated tour guides produced in the US on behalf of the USSR tourist initiatives to single sheet recital tickets and programs clearly produced to the lowest costs and standards many of which were not intended to last more than a single occasion. <br /> <br /> Condition is largely Very Good with a few of the pieces having some wear or damp staining a number of pieces have small "Book Sale" ink stamps presumably pieces that originated in the same collection and were then donated somewhere for sale. A fascinating and varied collection of theatrical and tourist ephemera with much of it originating in one of the most dynamic and experimental periods in Soviet performing arts. <br /> <br /> "Good intentions do not play a role in art. In art only achievements play a role." A.V. Lunacharski. <br /> <br /> Intourist was originally formed in 1929 as "Ð’ÑероÑÑийÑкое акционерное общеÑтво по приему иноÑтранных туриÑтов Ð’ÐО «ИнтуриÑт»" which more or less translates as the "All-Russian Joint-Stock Company for the Acceptance of Foreign Tourists". It was far more than a travel agency however controlling as it did almost all tourist access from the West into the USSR and operating on a number of levels to carefully control and curate the view of Soviet Russia that was presented to the rest of the world. The president of Intourist in 1933 Wilhelm Kurz of the Central Committee was the first USSR visitor to be formally accepted by the US when he visited immediately after the nation had been granted recognition. Higher officials in Intourist actually "иноÑтранный туриÑÑ‚" with the popular name simply being a contraction of the Russian language phrasing of "Foreign Tourist" or "Innostrannyy Turist" tended to be secure and solid party officials whose loyalty to the state was rarely questioned the main reason for this being that their interactions with foreign nations and nationals increased the possibility of defection; something Intourist learned early on when their UK representative in London Aron Sheinman declined to return to the Motherland when summoned and became a British citizen in 1939 which was probably rather good timing. <br /> <br /> Intourist in the 1930's midway through another Soviet Five Year Plan was given the brief to attract wealthy Western culture vultures and businesspeople to the USSR and display to them with astonishing attention to detail how much better the Soviet people were doing than their Western counterparts whilst also planting the seeds for future collaboration. The US was in the midst of the Depression not that the people paying $465 for their trip tickets in 1934 needed to worry much about that but being met from your luxurious "Soviet Ship" and ferried to your Moscow hotel by a fleet of brand new Lincoln town cars for two solid weeks of high culture and fine dining being escorted every step of the way by guides and assistants must have made quite an impression. The number of Americans who could afford a new Lincoln was pretty small at that point and the number who could travel even smaller so the Intourist agenda was aimed to within a minute of accuracy at the Westerners who could do them the most good; the rich the famous and the culturally influential. There's nothing accidental about the Intourist literature being filled with Margaret Bourke White's photographs and commentaries from notable Western culture critics and authorities. <br /> <br /> Tales abound from the Western tourists able to take advantage of Intourist's services of constant surveillance an absence of any freedom of movement usually disguised by the concept that there was so much to see in the Wonderland of the USSR that wandering off would just mean you missed the best parts and some very strict non-fraternisation policies that only eased off after 1953 when Stalin's strictures against marrying non-Soviet citizens were rolled back. <br /> <br /> At the height of the Cold War a period parts of this collection span Intourist was essentially an arm of the KGB rather than a tour company; hotels were bugged drivers recorded all conversations the guides reported even the most casual of disclosures to their superiors and no opportunity was lost to gather information on the one hand and disseminate pro-soviet propaganda on the other. Itineraries of Intourist tours for the period show very clearly that even the First Class tourists paying an eye-watering premium were not permitted anything other than the most token periods of 'freedom' with one Moscow-Leningrad tour timetabling only 8 hours of 'unsupervised' time spread across 10 days beginning at 8am and ending at around 11pm. <br /> <br /> All forms of Soviet culture from collective farm visits to mountain hikes to visits to the Bolshoi served a concrete purpose; to showcase the USSR's successes whilst concealing any of its blemishes. Impromptu hangouts with the actors at the Moscow State Theatre were in fact carefully scripted and choreographed encounters with no dissonant or dissident notes night life was restricted to a carefully chosen list of venues and wherever possible visitors were kept moving from one location to another in quick succession emphasizing the cavalcade of wonders whilst denying any insights that might be gathered by more leisurely viewing. Looking behind the scenery would only result in you seeing more scenery. <br /> <br /> "in the alternate universe that was the Soviet Union the 'giant squid' of the Soviet state would engulf the traveler. There were myriad ways in which the Soviet tourist monopoly Intourist both hindered the foreigner and shielded him from the vagaries of Soviet material life and above all the psychological costs of 'routine surveillance'. and the barriers the Soviets erected between foreigners and unvarnished and uncomfortable truths about the Soviet Union."

It was first put into use in Chicago Illinois to replace the 4a crossbar switch. The last new 4ESS switch was set up in Atlanta in 1999 and is planned to be in operation until 2015. The great advantage with the 4ESS was its flexibility and speed. The pioneering Digital Signal Processor DSP1 was invented by Bell Labs in the period 1977-78 with first samples tested in May 1979. The DSP1 was a key component in AT&T's 5ESS switch. DSP capability has since been implemented in every generation of the ESS-switches. Articles about the No. 4 ESS: 1. Martersteck K.E.

Minor bumping to extremities. A nice clean uniform set. 20 738 pp. 2 739-1940 pp. 1941-2974 pp. <br/><br/><em>First publication of the first description of the world's first television satellite. Telstar I made a tremendous impact on the world by transmitting transatlantic live television. "Telstar captured the popular imagination in a way that it is hard to believe any satellite especially a communication satellite could do today. According to AT&T more than half the population of the UK watched its first transatlantic transmission a remarkable percentage given that far fewer people than today owned television sets." Gavaghan Something New under the Sun p. 188According to the US Space Objects Registry Telstar 1 and 2 were still in orbit as of May 2010. The Telstar-satellites represent the true beginning of satellite communication.Telstar 1 was launched on July 10th 1962 and was the world's first active repeater satellite the primary function of which was transmission of voice black/white and colour television fascimilie and high- and low-speed data. The Telstar-project had five overall objectives; to demonstrate broadband transmission test operational communication satellite reliability obtain operational experience with ground terminals and provide space radiation measurement.Telstar 1 was a medium-altitude satellite with an elliptic orbit which was completed once every 2 hours and 37 minutes. Due to Telstar's non-geosynchronous orbit its availability for transatlantic signals was limited to 20 minutes in each orbit that passed over the Atlantic Ocean. The Telstar 2 was almost identical with Telstar 1 but had a higher orbit to reduce exposure to the damaging effect of the radiation belt. The Chief of NASA's Communications Satellite Programs wrote in 1966: "Although not the first communications satellite Telstar is the best known of all and is probably considered by most observers to have ushered in the era of satellite communications. This impression was a result of the tremendous impact upon the public by the first transmission of live television across the Atlantic Ocean. Telstar I was launched on July 10 1962 and on that same day live television pictures originating in the United States were received in France." Jaffe pg. 107"On the whole Telstar made a tremendous impact in the nation by transmitting transatlantic live television which demonstrated the possibilities for commercial satellite television and other services." Delbert. Communication via satellite 83 p. The Telstar-satellites were not the first launched satellites but they were the first to demonstrate the possibilities of satellites and to present them to a broader audience. The three volumes offered contain a wide variety of articles related to the Telstar satellites from the technical design of the satellite to transmission test and evaluation to spacecraft test.Issue 1:1.
