19250069221925. Wraps. Near Fine. Eighteen mounted black and white sepia toned photographs of a replica model of King Ludwig II's castle Neuschwanstein. 12mo. 18 by 13.5 cm. The model was constructed between November 20 1924 and May 1 1925 by an unknown artist. The replica was done with meticulous attention to detail -- it is very impressive. The model looks like one of the elaborate confections made from Lego blocks but the model predates Lego which began in 1932. The photos show the model from different angles and ranges with both panoramic and close-up photos. The photos are mostly near full page with two smaller photos sharing a page. The ink writing on the cover is in a cursive now long in disuse and so we aren't able to decipher it in its entirely unfortunately. unknown

AL-62<p>This album seems to focus on people at Paul's Pacific Gym in San Diego. Two contests are mentioned Mr. Pacific Shore and Mr. Novice San Diego. The bodybuilders pictured are multiracial but the album belonged to a white man. The middle section is full of family photos and the end goes back to the gym. There are also images of baseball cheerleading a trip to a ranch and around San Diego.</p><p>The photos are both black and white and color and most appear to be late 1970s. The album has a vinyl cover with a spiral inside that is detached. The outside is a bit worn as well. The pages were once sticky with the plastic that went over the photos but a lot of the photos are loose and I bet it wouldn't take much to remove them if you wanted to. The photos are mostly in very good condition.</p>

James Keir Hardie 1856-1915 Scottish trade unionist and politician. He was a founder of the Labour Party and served as its first parliamentary leader from 1906 to 1908. Born in Newhouse Lanarkshire he started working at the age of seven and worked in the Lanarkshire coal mines. With a background in preaching he became known as a talented public speaker and was chosen as a spokesman for his fellow miners. In 1879 Hardie was elected leader of a miners union in Hamilton and organised a National Conference of Miners in Dunfermline. He subsequently led miners strikes in Lanarkshire 1880 and Ayrshire 1881. He turned to journalism to make ends meet and from 1886 was a full-time union organiser as secretary of the Ayrshire Miners Union. Hardie initially supported William Gladstones Liberal Party but later concluded that the working class needed its own party. He first stood for parliament in 1888 as an independent and later that year helped form the Scottish Labour Party. Hardie won the English seat of West Ham South as an independent candidate in 1892 and helped to form the Independent Labour Party ILP the following year. He lost his seat in 1895 but was re-elected to Parliament in 1900 for Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales. In the same year he helped to form the union-based Labour Representation Committee which was later renamed the Labour Party. After the 1906 election Hardie was chosen as the Labour Partys first parliamentary leader. He resigned in 1908 in favour of Arthur Henderson and spent his remaining years campaigning for causes such as womens suffrage self-rule for India and opposition to World War I. He died in 1915 while attempting to organise a pacifist general strike and has called him "Labours greatest pioneer and its greatest hero". Morgan & Scott hardcover
