19108830London: George Philip & Son c. 1910. Folding map 50 x 61 cm printed in colours black and white map of the tramways on the verso folding into worn buff printed card wraps. A map sponsored by the Evening News published in various editions c. 1907-1910. Later editions of the map like this one which was in circulation until at least 1910 were printed with black rather than blue text and folded into buff rather than red covers. The earliest issue anticipated the colour coding of lines on official UERL maps by several months. The Evening News was responsible for coining the name Bakerloo Line for the Baker Street and Waterloo Railway and here the newspaper makes a relatively early reference to the 'tube' a nickname coined for the new deep-level tunnels. The cover graphically illustrates the construction of the tunnels divided into seven sections to represent the seven companies operating 'tube' trains. Map George Philip & Son paperback

50908No publisher. London. March 1887 - December 1888. 3 volumes. ALL PUBLISHED. pp. 240; xviii 624; 664. Many text illustrations. All in new cloth lacking four leaves in issue no.5 v.I for 1888 else contents very good. BUCOP is rather unclear on this obviously very scarce and short-lived journal. It records v.I as being 1888 rather than 1887 as above. The two volumes for 1888 are published as NEW SERIES. BUCOP lists three locations - Birmingham and Durham Universities both seemingly imperfect and the British Library. However the BL catalogue does not record this title.

196623802New York City NY: Newsweek 1966. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/No Dust Jacket As Issued. New York City NY: Newsweek 1966. Hardcover. Fine/None As Issued. First Edition/First Printing. 1 pages. Rare Truman Capote and Irving Penn collectible piece. A fine framed copy of the original actual advertisement NOT a contemporary digital copy print of the author appearing on behalf of U. S. News And World Report signed by Truman Capote. The advertisement is "blow-up" oversize at 10 X 14 inches. Elegantly and beautifully framed in black matte finish increasing the overall size slightly. Features the author in a closeup portrait-photograph taken by Irving Penn: A pensive-looking Truman Capote post-"In Cold Blood" triumph at the liminal height of both his global renown and impending personal disaster. Although the photographer is not acknowledged Capote himself mentions him in "Conversations With American Writers" and is one of several portraits taken by Irving Penn the only other major artist to photograph him extensively aside from Avedon. There is very minimal text printed at the bottom. As such it is eminently suitable for display. Printed on archival stock paper in the United States. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect: It has lost almost none of its original sepia-toned clarity and warmth when it first appeared. Without DJ as issued. Presents "Truman Capote: U. S. New And World Report Advertisement". Marks the very first appearance of Truman Capote on behalf of the legendary publication. The text underneath Capote's vast portrait simply states: "We spare our readers unimportant news. We spare our advertisers unimportant readers". Meaning the publication and Capote matter as serious subjects. Furthermore that Truman Capote is an important reader himself worth reaching by advertisers. For all of his private and public troubles Truman Capote mattered throughout his literary and public life - and posthumously too. ALL of his books not just "In Cold Blood" are in innumerable subsequent printings and have remained in print uninterruptedly. This is surely and mainly because "In Cold Blood" is the most important and influential book of its kind ever written in the 20th century. Capote himself called it the "first nonfiction novel". Norman Mailer on the one hand and Joan Didion on the other emulated its ground-breaking techniques to write their own masterpieces. An absolute "must-have" collectible not just memorabilia piece for Truman Capote collectors. This copy of the U. S. News And World Report Advertisement is very prominently neatly and beautifully signed in blue fountain pen on recto underneath his portrait by Truman Capote. It is signed directly on the advertisement itself not on a tipped-in page or bookplate. This piece is a collectible classic. As far as we know this is the only such signed copy of it beautifully framed available online and is in remarkably well-preserved condition: Clean crisp and bright. Please note: Keep in mind that this is ephemera therefore most if not all other copies vanished a long time ago. It is the only signed copy we have ever found and will ever find. A rare one-of-a-kind signed copy thus. Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood" is regarded by Harold Bloom as the author's canonical masterpiece. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine collectible piece. SEE ALSO OTHER TRUMAN CAPOTE TITLES IN OUR CATALOG. Newsweek hardcover

1936102433Hobart: Davies Brothers Limited 1936. First Edition. Hardcover. Hobart Davies Brothers Limited 1936 to 1938. Quarto each number comprising 8 pages with illustrations mainly from photographs. Plain binder's cloth a little marked flecked and rubbed at the extremities with the rear cover heavily mottled; endpapers foxed; light tidemark to the bottom corner of three numbers the first two and the last one; trifling signs of use; a very good run. Published during the editorship of Frederick Usher 1931-1943 'The Mercury House News' was 'published monthly by and in the interests of the employees of Davies Brothers'. In the first number the Managing Director C.B. Davies writes that 'There is no reason why this little sheet should not be a means of improving the mutual understanding between employer and employee thereby creating a feeling of confidence and attaining the good fellowship and co-operation between the departments of the whole organisation of Davies Brothers Limited'. The end result is the desired 'blend of humour in general items' with departmental reports that are 'a serious record of the events of the month - improved plant promotions social items sporting news and the like'. However Number 14 is the 'Last Issue. Owing to the regrettable decision of the piece-workers of the Linotype Chapel "that they will not set the matter for HOUSE NEWS unless payment is made for same" and as the publication is entirely a voluntary effort on the part of all employees in which considerable interest has been taken and pleasure derived it is regretted that the publication will cease with this issue'. We thought complete runs of this in-house journal would be scarce but we were very surprised to find no record of any issues at all in Trove. Davies Brothers Limited hardcover
