AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED AS ASSOCIATE JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT TO PUBLISHER JOEL MUNSELL 25 SEPTEMBER 1870 REGARDING CORRECTIONS TO AN ESSAY BEFORE PUBLICATION

187037262Newark 1870. 2pp. 5" x 7-3/4." Entirely in ink manuscript on lined paper and signed "Joseph P. Bradley." Munsell's name above the salutation covers The previously written name of Bradley. Very Good. <br /> <br /> Bradley a Rutgers graduate was a highly respected New Jersey lawyer specializing in railroad and patent litigation. President Grant nominated him to the United States Supreme Court in early 1870 and he took his seat in March. He served until 1891. His Letter transcribed in full words in capital letters are underlined in the original suggests that Munsell certainly earned his fee for publishing the book discussed here. The book was 'The Centennial Celebration of Rutgers College June 21 1870: With an Historical Discourse. Delivered by Hon. Joseph Bradley.' It was printed in Albany by Munsell in 1870. Bradley had a scholar's attention to detail and wanted Munsell's work to reflect precisely Bradley's thinking. <br /> "You did not quite understand one correction made by me on the title page. That thing which I originally called an APPENDIX we propose to call a NOTE and say nothing about it in the title page - occupying the same place as it now does - at the end; - but under the name of a note instead of that of an appendix. Hence. Then we propose to call the account of the Centennial Exercises - AN APPENDIX. Now you will see the meaning of my correction on the title page. Calling the account of the Centennial Exercise by the name of an appendix my name as author of the Address could properly come AFTER the word 'Appendix' as you suggest. It would be better if it could. Perhaps even now my name had better come after the word "1870" immediately before the words " with an Appendix." I agree with you that it is more usual to have the name of the author down there.<br /> "Yours truly Joseph P. Bradley. unknown

BRADLEY, Katharine, & Edith Cooper, as Michael FieldBiblio.com

The Tragic Mary.

1890156421London: George Bell and Sons 1890. The real woman of magical nature must remain undiscovered and triumphant First edition first impression trade issue in the scarce glassine jacket. The play published under the pseudonym "Michael Field" by Edith Emma Cooper and her aunt and sometime lover Katharine Harris Bradley tells of the reign and fall of Mary Queen of Scots. There was also a limited issue of 60 copies bound in vellum. Selwyn Image 1849-1930 designed the binding for this title and his regal blooming thistles are an entirely appropriate example of his fin-de-siècle decorative art. The borders incorporate Mary's motto "En ma fin est mon commencement" "In my end is my beginning". An artist designer and poet Image was published in The Savoy and was the seventh Slade Professor of Fine Art at Oxford from 1910-16. Oscar Wilde considered The Tragic Mary one of the two most beautiful books of the nineteenth century "in appearance" quoted in Hadjiafxendi p. 243 the other being Dante Gabriel Rossetti's Poems 1870. Cooper and Bradley acknowledge in their Preface both the necessity and futility of dramatizing Mary's life; "the Queen herself lies sculptured in Westminster Abbey waiting with the serenity of patience a judgement other than that of men. Yet we are not permitted to withhold our human verdicts if she is to live as a presence in our midst. our beliefs are but conjectures and the real woman of magical nature must remain undiscovered and triumphant" Preface. Octavo. Original brown paper-covered boards spine and covers lettered in black covers illustrated in black with blossoming thistles and crown motifs designed by Selwyn Image edges uncut. With original glassine dust jacket and later handmade paper dust jacket. Two previous booksellers' notes loosely inserted. Small mark to spine a little foxing and offsetting to endpapers. A near-fine copy unopened in sharp glassine spine panel a little toned trivial chips to head of spine panel and corners a few marks to panels flaps a touch creased.
