Nowhere in the volume does it list the names of any individual contributors. Due to the book size and coated paper the book weighs over 5 pounds reportedly causing President Franklin D. Roosevelt to ask "Where is the steamer trunk that goes with it"<br /> <br><br /> <br><br /> Preface: "The volume on Washington herewith given to the public differs in at least one important respect from the guides to other large cities now being prepared. Washington is predominantly the Capital of the United States. Visitors to the city are commonly interested as much in the machinery of national government as in the great buildings which house that machinery. Therefore a considerable portion of this volume is given over to detailed accounts of the functional activities of all Government departments bureaus and independent agencies." 1331800.

1936Cat333N.p.: International News Photos 1936. Press photograph 8 x 10 inches by Arthur Rothstein distributed by International News Photos with original caption on verso dated 1936. Minor edge wear and toning to caption else very good. In the mid-1930s prolonged drought across the Great Plains combined with falling agricultural prices forced thousands of farm families into foreclosure and displacement. The crisis central to what would become known as the Dust Bowl led to widespread liquidation of farms and personal property often through public auctions held under distress conditions.<br /> <br /> Offered here is a stark press image documenting one such sale in Nebraska. The original caption reads in part: “This farm auction shop is typical of the mid-west where farmers driven from their land by the drought are forced to sell at auction their farm machinery household effects in order to procure enough money to move to more fertile spots. The government is aiding the stricken farmers through loans and relief. It is thought that not less than 100000 families may be moved from their farms by the government.†The photograph shows the exterior of a “Sale Room†with equipment and household goods assembled for liquidation. Rothstein working for the Resettlement Administration produced some of the most widely circulated images of rural dislocation during the Depression. Images such as this were distributed through press agencies to illustrate both the severity of the crisis and the federal government’s expanding role in relief and resettlement and were reprinted later. This is an attractive original copy with fine contrast with 1936 press markings verso. International News Photos unknown
19459116District of Columbia: Government Printing Office 1945. Poster 48.3 x 53 cm. folded as issued. Government Printing Office document 1945--O-629743. A government-issued poster encouraging Americans to grow victory gardens to support the war effort. The poster depicts an arrangement of various vegetables including peas in the shell cabbage and carrots in the foreground. In the background is a view of a garden with a man and woman cultivating and weeding. In an official wartime activity begun two and a half decades earlier in the Great War Americans were urged to supplement the food they had available for personal use by planting vegetable gardens both to support the war effort and due to food shortages and rationing. The gardens known as "victory gardens" were promoted widely by both the government and industry. Gardens were planted during World War I as well but were called "war gardens" until the end of the war when the term "victory garden" came into use. Creased at the folds otherwise very near fine.

The United States part of the Joint Verification Experiment carried out in 1988 as the Kearsarge event in Operation Touchstone. Twenty-five years later a joint commemoration of the event was held at the Nevada Nuclear Security Site formerly the Nevada Test Site. The objective of the JVE was to calibrate the seismic yield estimation capability of underground nuclear explosions conducted in both countries. It involved the unprecedented US yield measurement of a Soviet nuclear explosion at its then nuclear test site in Kazakhstan and the reciprocal Soviet yield measurement of a US nuclear explosion at the Nevada Test Site JVE provided the first opportunity for scientists from US and Soviet nuclear weapons laboratories to meet and work cooperatively. At the Nevada Test Site and at the follow-on experiment at the Soviet Semipalatinsk Test Site they developed confidence-building steps that made possible the ratification of the TTBT in 1990.
