1920001620London: OXO Limited 1920. Softcover. First edition presumed n. d. ca 1920; 7 x 4 3/4; pp. 16; illustrated stiff wraps; a small spot and minor age-toning to margins; mild wear to edges; brown and beige in-line illustrations; very good condition. Possibly one of the earliest OXO cooking booklets it contained recipes by various women that had been mailed to the company as an expression of the cooks' great satisfaction in using OXO cubes in their cooking and included such delightful concoctions such as OXO Blanc Mange OXO Devilled Bananas and OXO Jambon Savory. The OXO beaf stock cubes were first introduced in 1910 as a cheaper version to the original product which had been a viscous liquid containing only meat extract and 4% salt. Presumably the brand name OXO was derived from "ox." The OXO products greatly expanded from those early days are still very popular to this day. London: OXO Limited paperback books

1911000707New York: Max. N. Maisel 1911. First edition; 5 x 7 1/4; pp. 3 4-159 1; bound in black cloth over boards; private paper label to spine; hinges weak; spotting mostly to corners and margins of pages; piece of old tape to index page; overall in good condition. A compilation of Russian "songs of freedom" and revolutionary poems by various authors. Some of the works included are an early printings of Razrushennyi Mol' of Grigorii Gershuni a Russian revolutionary and a founder of the Socialist-Revolutionary Party and Maxim Gorky's "Piesnia o Bureviestnikie" The Song of the Stormy Petrel. Undoubtedly though one of the most interesting poems is "Fedorushka" by Tolstoy. In truth the poem was written by Russian poet Mikhail Rozengeim in 1880 for whose poetry the literary term "liberal accusation" was coined. Apparently Fedorushka was erroneously attributed to Tolstoy whom in fact did not like the poem and expressed great displeasure with the incorrect attribution. The mistake was most probably made by the publisher - Max N. Maisel who was a bookseller and publisher on New York's Lower East Side in the late 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. His shop was said to had been frequented by many political and cultural radicals. Only e-book copies of the first edition listed in OCLC. New York: Max. N. Maisel hardcover books
