Quarto 11" x 9 3/4" bound in original publisher's brown cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. <br /><br />The Greek island of Melos in the Cyclades has been inhabited for at least five thousand years. Two periods of its history are well documented: the late Bronze Age when it supported an important urban centre at Phylakopi and the late fifth century BC when as an independent city-state it briefly defied and was then destroyed by the expansionist power of Athens. The case of Melos is thus relevant to the understanding of the processes of early state-formation and of the integration of small-scale societies into larger political units. As the contributors to this volume show a small island provides a very suitable area - clearly defined self-contained - in which to examine the processes of social cultural and economic change and the forces - sometimes gradual and almost imperceptible in their effect sometimes sudden and dramatic - by which changes are initiated.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b> Review tipped to front paste down lightly soiled.

Hughes; Barber Leather Co.; N.N. Hill Brass Co. 1893-1918. 4to. 72 letters some mimeographed others typed carbon copies and a few ALS sized 5.75 x 9.25 in. up to 8.5 x 11 in. many on steel-engraved letterhead a couple on ruled paper and many featuring the offsetting from the leather dyes with over 40 attached samples of papers White coated sign muslin foundry sand and assorted leathers. All preserved in archival mylar sleeves in recent full calf 3-ring binder w/ stamping. An exceptional archive of original TLS many with original samples of paper leather and even sand which were used in ever increasing quantities by the noted manufacturer of sleigh bells bells pull toys and many other toys for children from the Gilded Age through World War I. The earliest letter dated Feb. 10 1899 includes two paper samples from the Henry Lindenmeyr & Sons Paper Warehouse in New York on Bleeker Street noting that “we can furnish in the shade of your sample at $ 8.00 per hundred sheets basis 25 x 36. We could not make less than a thousand yards.†Sixty or the majority of the letters and samples were sent by the Barber Co. beginning in 1902 and continuing into World War I. Their letters and samples describe the colour grain and general finish of the included samples as well as their perfect applications in “baby carriage straps shawl straps small cases i.e. for toys small tool boxes†and of course sleigh bells and bell hangers and bell flappers as well as handle grips. Leathers encompass Red Straight Grain Cowhide Pigskin straps Black Bell Leather Walnut Strap Leather and specialized leathers for tumbling purposes for brasswork. Barber 1836-1909 was the longtime owner and operator of the Barber Leather Co. in North Adams until his death when his son Archer Barber took over the business. Many of the samples offered to the Hill Brass Co. are mounted on TLS and TLS copy letters from Harry S. Millard who later was brought into the Barber Co. in 1914 as Treasurer of the Company. The samples here include splits black pig leather as well as embossed strips in assorted coloured leather Caulkins & Post whose building at 484-494 Main Street in Middletown was considered one of the first “modern†stores and specialized in drapes window shades furniture and bicycles before opening up their successful card dealership in 1903. The Hill Brass Co. required products beyond leathers & papers as shown by the reply to their request for a quote for White Sign Muslin waterproof textile intended for use on children’s carriages and go-carts. For their manufacturing processes they required foundry sands and the Pettinos Brothers based in Columbia Ceylon Bethlehem PA and Mexico sent them a sample of their plumbago “high grade Ceylon stock.†There is even a May 29 1905 solicitation letter from F. von Bardeleben after seeing the Hill Brass Co. exhibit at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair mentioning that his company can supply a “very fine grade of non-poisonous unchangeable paints to be used for painting toys.†The N.N. Hill Brass Co. founded by Norman Newton Hill 1863-1950 in 1889 operated until the early 1960’s was one of the largest factory’s in the World producing bells & toys and by the 1930’s produced Walt Disney merchandise. Along with the Bevin Brothers and other local Massachusetts foundries they manufactured Salvation Army bells sleight bells bicycle bells alarm bells and more. See: N.N.
