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

197649043Rome: Societas Academica Dacoromana 1976. Paperback. Small 4to. Stiff yellow wrappers. 189pp. Near fine. Most minor wear to outer wrappers only. Tight attractive issue of this Rome-based academic journal of philology almost entirely in Italian with a bit of English. Contributor's copy bearing the name/address Milan inkstamp on front flyleaf of Ioan Petru Culianu or Couliano 1950-91 the controversial Romanian philosopher essayist and historian of ideas religion and culture. On May 21 1991 he was murdered -- some say assassinated -- in a bathroom at the University of Chicago's Divinity School likely because he proved a vocal critic of Romania's Communist post-Revolution regime in interviews and articles. His article "Note Sur Opsis et Theoria Dans la Poesie d'Eminescu" appears on pp. 93-98 where laid in are three photocopies of another unidentified Couliano journal article. Quite unusual.

195323577New York: Newspaper Guild of New York. Very Good. 1953. "20th Anniversary". Hardcover. pictorial paper label on front cover; no dust jacket as issued shelfwear and bumping to bottom edges some fraying to cloth at top of spine a few tiny stains adjacent to spine on both front and rear covers B&W photographs cartoons ads etc. Commemorative yearbook issued to coincide with the "Page One Ball" an annual shindig at which the Big Apple's newspapermen and probably a few women gathered to make merry give themselves awards and generally congratulate one another for being well New York newspapermen at a time when NYC boasted no fewer than seven daily papers. Numerous reporters and columnists contributed short pieces many of a humorous nature and quite a few having to do with the vicissitudes of the journalistic racket and/or aspects of New York life. The cover illustration is by Fred L. Packer and among the cartoonists whose work appears in the book are Milton Caniff Irving Hoffman Bernard Seaman Chic Young and Virgil Partch VIP. And of course there are the ads: product ads for cigarettes airlines restaurants liquor hotels etc. and also numerous "tribute" ads mostly from showbiz figures "Best wishes from Sid Caesar" that sort of thing. This particular copy was personalized via the gold-embossment of his name at the lower corner of the front cover for film director Fred Zinnemann and laid in is a presentation letter to him from Ted Nelson Director of the Page One Ball; unfortunately whoever did the cover-embossing omitted the final "n" from Zinnemann's name. The high spirits documented in this publication unfortunately didn't quite survive all the way to the end of 1953: on November 28 six of the city's seven daily papers went on strike the photo engravers wanted a raise and better working conditions and for eleven whole days readers had only the Herald Tribute available to them for their regular news fix. NOTE that although the cover illustration references the "20th Anniversary" this would appear to be a reference to the Newspaper Guild of New York itself; I've found no evidence that this sort of commemorative "Page One" volume had been published prior to 1951. In any event an OCLC search turns up less than a handful of library holdings of this publication. . Newspaper Guild of New York hardcover

1820165851820. Tuckerman H. P. Poetry and prayer journal 1820-1830 documents early nineteenth-century manuscript album culture within Anglo-American Protestant communities with particular attention to women's devotional writing moral instruction and shared literary practices. The volume supports research into gendered authorship religious education and the circulation of poetic and didactic texts in the early republic where handwritten albums functioned as spaces for communal inscription. The presence of multiple hands across dated entries demonstrates a participatory literary culture structured around kinship and social networks while recurring themes of childhood piety mortality and moral virtue situate the text within contemporary evangelical and didactic traditions.<br /> Tuckerman H. P. Poetry and prayer journal. Circa 1820-1830. Manuscript volume with 53 handwritten entries by multiple contributors including poems hymns and devotional reflections. Entries include a hymn composed for the British and Foreign School Society emphasizing education and moral uplift through the metaphor "Oh stream of knowledge when thy tides.Forget not then the flowers" alongside gendered moral instruction concluding "woman's Happiest destiny Is only - to be good." Biblical passages including references to Luke 2 appear throughout accompanied by original prayers such as an 1827 entry: "Heaven sees no sight so fair As happy childhood bowed in prayer." Several texts address mortality and impermanence including reflections such as "Life is but a scanty ledge.suspended o'er a fathomless abyss" and a memorial poem introduced as written by a young man shortly before death from consumption invoking Romantic-era associations with illness and artistic sensibility. Additional entries focus on natural landscapes including "Spring Mountain" 1828 which situates spiritual reflection within pastoral imagery. The volume includes an original drawing of a mother and child signed "S. Tuckerman" as well as two pencil drawings of forest scenes reinforcing the integration of visual and literary expression within album practices.<br /> This manuscript emerges from a period in which evangelical Protestantism moral education movements and literary cultivation intersected within domestic and semi-public spheres particularly among women and youth. The reference to the British and Foreign School Society situates the volume within transatlantic educational reform efforts emphasizing literacy and moral discipline. The collaborative nature of the entries aligns with early nineteenth-century album traditions where social exchange and authorship were intertwined. Such materials provide insight into how religious belief gender norms and literary expression were internalized and reproduced within everyday practice. Original red half morocco binding with owner's name "H. P. Tuckerman" in gilt on front cover; approximately 120 pages with writing on 76 pages; includes three original drawings; measures 9 x 7 1/2 inches. Light toning and minimal foxing throughout; very good condition. A substantive example of early American manuscript culture linking devotional life gendered authorship and communal literary exchange. unknown

In the early 1920s poetry particularly avant-garde poetry swamped the literary pages of Soviet Yiddish periodicals.
