19086049no place given likely Cambridge Mass.: no publisher given likely a Harvard club 1908. Newspaper. Very good . Large tabloid-style newspaper measuring about 14" x 19.5" and unfolding to about 28" x 19.5". 4pp. In very good or better condition with old folds and creases but quite bright and clean. Tongue-in-cheek humor newspaper meant for Harvard students published in "Shamebridge Mess." Loaded with inside jokes and some topical humor of the period along with several "articles" and "advertisements" which play up the "ladies' journal" theme ostensibly advertising corsets and the like even though the intended audience was mostly male. Since the very top of the front panel reads "Extra!" it is possible that this was a supplement to an issue of the Harvard Lampoon or a similar magazine but OCLC records zero holdings in worldwide libraries including Harvard. Presumably quite scarce and of interest to any Harvard enthusiast. [no publisher given, likely a Harvard club] unknown

"It appears to me that the fibula broach or clasp in question is of the XIthe century and represents a still ruder imitation of the rude Munus Divinus of Louis-Le-Debonaire. It was for several centuries the custom in France that all sort of coins or imitations of coins in all the different metals bearing portraitrs with names or religious legends & were given as mariage presents. And of course such gifts served also for other sacred and religious ceremonies. And afterwards formed into fibulae an addition in smaller hand. I may also yet observe suppose a Person's name was Ludovicus I do not see why he should not have presented /: in those days -:/ such a fibula according to circumstances either in gold silver or copper to his betrothed."

A pamphlet supporting strategies for the expansion of women's employment opportunities.

If a master were to employ women in any part of the business the whole of his workmen would strike at once." The document also lists sad consequences of the current work climate: "Workhouses were found to be overcrowded with able-bodies females while charities were besieged with women praying to be provided either with employment or bread."

1966214071966. Counterculture Archive of five issues of The Realist the groundbreaking satirical and political magazine founded by Paul Krassner. Known for its radical leftist stance and boundary-pushing commentary The Realist was a critical voice in the countercultural movements of the 1960s blending investigative journalism with dark humor and unflinching critiques of American politics war race relations and the establishment. With contributions from figures such as Robert Anton Wilson Abbie Hoffman and Timothy Leary the publication played a significant role in shaping the political satire of the New Left. Archive includes:<br /> <br /> 1 The Realist. Issue No. 64 February 1966. Features a striking illustrated cover satirizing American apathy with references to the infamous Kitty Genovese murder the Ku Klux Klan and the House Un-American Activities Committee HUAC. Inside Krassner and his contributors skewer the failures of American justice and political hypocrisy with their signature blend of absurdity and biting critique. This issue exemplifies The Realist's approach to humor as a vehicle for exposing societal failures particularly in race relations and government repression.<br /> <br /> 2 The Realist. Issue No. 65 March 1966. Includes Robert Anton Wilson's The Fatal Snowball Fight on Cumberland Avenue a darkly humorous piece that examines law enforcement's overreaction to a student snowball fight in Knoxville Tennessee. The article serves as a microcosm of broader societal tensions highlighting the growing rift between youth counterculture and the authoritarian establishment. Other articles in this issue continue The Realist's sharp critiques of the Vietnam War police violence and political paranoia.<br /> <br /> 3 The Realist. Issue No. 69 September 1966. features one of the magazine's most notable pieces An Impolite Interview with Timothy Leary in which the controversial LSD advocate discusses drug policy consciousness expansion and the First Amendment. This issue also includes The Day the Supreme Court Banned Vaseline a satirical jab at America's obscenity laws and the broader censorship debate as well as Modest Proposals: The Whitey Survival Manual which critiques racial politics in a manner characteristic of The Realist's provocative and often incendiary approach. The cover's headline Lyndon Johnson Loves Nervous Nellie reflects the magazine's ongoing lampooning of the Johnson administration's political anxieties.<br /> 4 The Realist. Issue No. 71 November 1966. Provides a prescient discussion of Hollywood's role in politics with the article Remember Next Tuesday: Get Tufts! which speculates on Ronald Reagan's political rise following his election as Governor of California. The cover features a photograph of Reagan highlighting The Realist's scrutiny of the merging of celebrity and political power-a theme that would become increasingly relevant in decades to come.<br /> <br /> 5 The Realist. Issue No. 72 December 1966. Robert Anton Wilson's The Cybernetic Revolution anticipates the impact of automation and artificial intelligence on society reflecting the counterculture's growing fascination with technology as both a tool of liberation and oppression. Renfreu Neff's Automation and Aberration explores the evolution of sexual mores arguing that traditional notions of deviance and perversion are becoming obsolete in the face of modernity. The issue like many from The Realist blurs the line between genuine inquiry and satirical exaggeration making it both thought-provoking and deeply irreverent.<br /> During the 1960s The Realist served as a crucial alternative press outlet for leftist anarchist and countercultural thought. At a time when mainstream media was constrained by Cold War conservatism and corporate control Krassner's magazine became a hub for irreverent unfiltered political satire. The publication targeted institutions such as the military-industrial complex religious orthodoxy and government censorship while also providing a platform for psychedelic culture civil rights and radical activism. All issues are in newsprint format with varying degrees of age toning and edge wear typical of publications of this period. Overall very good condition. An important collection from one of the defining underground publications of the 20th century. unknown
1970221271970. FeminismSocialismLaborLGBTQ Underground newspaper Kaleidoscope Milwaukee WI archive of two issues. Vol. 1 No. 7 Oct. 29-Nov. 11 1970; Vol. 3 No. 23 Jan. 15-22 1971. Two original issues from Milwaukee's radical newspaper Kaleidoscope a cornerstone of New Left feminist and countercultural expression in the Midwest. These issues exemplify the intersectional editorial voice of the paper prominently featuring articles on feminist self-determination LGBTQ liberation reproductive autonomy and anti-racist solidarity.<br /> <br /> The October 29-November 11 1970 issue is especially notable for its explosive front-page headline "OFF SEXIST PIGS!" and its radical feminist manifesto demanding an end to male chauvinism and gender oppression. The text includes direct calls for solidarity among women critiques of workplace discrimination at Harley-Davidson and shout-outs to revolutionary women including Bernadine Dohrn and Angela Davis. Inside readers encounter a full-page satirical parody of the Madison-Milwaukee Bugle-American that mocks local liberal media's co-optation of radical aesthetics alongside critiques of law enforcement welfare policy and censorship.<br /> <br /> The January 15-22 1971 anniversary issue celebrates four years of Kaleidoscope's publication and centers on both introspection and community engagement. It includes prominent articles such as "OBSTETRICS IN THE WRONG HANDS" which critiques institutionalized misogyny in medical practice and "GAY GUIDE" a resource for Milwaukee's LGBTQ community. A striking article titled "THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES" explores queer identity and resistance through the lens of Warhol superstar Holly Woodlawn whose image dominates the spread. Elsewhere "faggot faggot faggot" provides a bold reclamation of slurs while analyzing anti-queer violence and legal discrimination. The layout's creative typography and photo-collage aesthetic reflect the underground press's rejection of mainstream journalistic forms.<br /> <br /> Mild toning to edges with expected brittleness to newsprint; light chipping to spine fold of the earlier issue; both issues remain legible with strong contrast to ink and graphics. Overall very good condition. A powerful primary source capturing the radical ferment of early 1970s Milwaukee this set documents the convergence of feminist queer and anti-authoritarian movements in the heartland-a scarce and potent artifact of Midwest underground publishing. unknown
1950223221950. Complete 1950 run of Jazz Journal Vol. 3 Nos. 1-12. London: L. M. Publications 1950. Complete run of the 1950 volume. Twelve issues with each issue around 20 pages. Black-and-white photo illustrations throughout. Printed paper wraps. Founded in 1948 by editor Sinclair Traill Jazz Journal became a critical platform for serious jazz criticism in Britain at a time when the country began appreciating the impact of African American musical innovation. This volume features twelve monthly issues each spotlighting legendary musicians in deeply reverent portraits: Louis Armstrong Baby Dodds Coleman Hawkins Fats Waller Earl Hines and others. The December cover has a Christmas theme.<br /> <br /> This archive is a window into Britain's postwar jazz awakening. The articles range from retrospectives to musicology and artist discographies. Floyd Levin's "The American Jazz Scene" captures the transatlantic tone of the journal mourning the death of Buster Wilson and lauding figures like Sidney Anderson and Kid Ory as vanguards of "authentic" jazz-framed as endangered in a postwar America increasingly seduced by commercialism. Meanwhile Derrick Stewart-Baxter's "Preachin' the Blues" traces rural-to-urban migration patterns in blues development analyzing Sleepy John Estes' discography and folk influences. The December issue features a full-page bibliophilic essay "A Case for Books" reviewing A Treasury of the Blues by W. C. Handy whom it names "the composer of the classic Memphis Blues and Joe Turner Blues" emphasizing the book's role in preserving "the true and historical survey of the blues." Taken together the essays discographies and image curation construct a coherent theory of jazz not only as music but as cultural heritage. Moderate and consistent soiling and creasing to wrappers; binding intact but some covers remain delicate. Occasional chipping at spine. Covers remain vivid with strong photographic contrasts. Overall good condition. A complete year's run of one of the earliest and most influential British jazz journals with signatures from leading musicians of the era such as Armstrong Dodds and Hawkins. unknown

18549279Columbus: Ohio State Journal Company 1854. Second Edition. Hardcover. Very good-. Octavo 135pp. illustrated. This is the second edition published two years after the first and certainly the better one being the first to contain the numerous tinted lithographed plates. About very good in the publisher's blind-tooled red cloth with gilt detail on the spine. Some inartful but not disfiguring coloring-in to some chipped areas on the spine extremities. This copy lacking the folding frontispiece and one plate "View of Morrow from the South" but otherwise complete and with five plates not noted in the list of illustrations all in the Cleveland area "Cleveland Station" "West Branch Rocky River Near Olmsted Station" "East Branch Rocky River Berea Station" "Elk Creek" and "Grand River Near Painesville Station". The list of illustrations calls for 28 plates including the map. While we have 26 of the 28 the 5 extra yield a total of 31 plates. Thus while incomplete still a desirable and very "Cleveland" copy of this important image-driven guide for rail travelers in Ohio. The author goes on tangents for example spending more than two pages discussing the general history of the Mormons as the guide passes through Kirtland but these digressions seem to be in some sense the point--offering diversion to the weary traveler. Howes O52; Thomson 887. With strong recent auction records we have priced the book accordingly at about 1/3 its natural price were the frontispiece present. Ohio State Journal Company hardcover
