1953140785New York: Simon and Schuster 1953. First edition of Lady and the Tramp boldly signed by Walt Disney Bill Justice and four of Disney's nine old men: Frank Thomas Ollie Johnston Eric Larson and Woolie Reitherman. Octavo original cloth with charming illustrations by Joe G. Rinaldi. Signed by Walt Disney on the title page in crayon and on the front free endpaper by Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas in crayon Woolie Reitherman in pencil and Eric Larson and Bill Justice in pen. Foreword by Walt Disney. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. A unique example. Lady and the Tramp tells the story of a female American Cocker Spaniel named Lady who lives with a refined upper-middle-class family and a male stray mongrel called the Tramp. Greene the editor and manager of the newspaper syndicate King Features was the author of the short story “Happy Dan The Whistling Dog†which came to Walt Disney’s attention. At Disney’s request Greene developed the story into a full-length novel on which the film one of the most popular of Disney’s animated features was based. The sequence of Lady and Tramp sharing a plate of spaghetti — climaxed by an accidental kiss as they swallow opposite ends of the same strand of spaghetti — is considered an iconic scene in American film history. Lady and the Tramp was named number 95 out of the "100 Greatest Love Stories of All Time" by the American Film Institute in their 100 Years.100 Passions special as one of only two animated films to appear on the list along with Disney's Beauty and the Beast which ranked 34th. In 2010 Rhapsody called its accompanying soundtrack one of the all-time great Disney and Pixar soundtracks. In June 2011 TIME named it one of "The 25 All-TIME Best Animated Films."

1965568571965. U.S. Supreme Court. U.S. Supreme Court. Portrait Photograph of Lyndon Johnson Inscribed To Supreme Court Justice and UN Ambassador Arthur Goldberg Johnson Lyndon Baines 1908-1973. Goldberg Arthur 1908-1990. Photograph of Johnson Inscribed to Goldberg. N.p. N.d. 1965. 8" x 10" color portrait photograph printed credit in the image at bottom left glazed and framed in tasteful black-and-gold wooden 16" x 19" frame. Bold inscription and full signature below image. A few tiny nicks to frame image fine. $5000. The undated inscription reads "To Arthur Goldberg-/ With the high regard and affection/ of his friend-/ Lyndon B. Johnson." Appointed by President Kennedy Goldberg was an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1962 to 1965 and one of the most significant justices of the twentieth century. In his three terms on the bench he pushed the Court toward a broader construction of personal rights a course it followed over the following two decades. He is best known for his influential 1963 internal Supreme Court memorandum that condemned capital punishment as an example of "cruel and unusual punishment" as defined by the Eighth Amendment and his opinion in Griswold v. Connecticut 1965 which argued against a Connecticut law banning the use of contraceptives because it violated an un-enumerated right to privacy guaranteed by the Ninth Amendment. The memo initiated a wave of litigation and legislation that led to the abolition of the death penalty in several states; the Griswold opinion laid the foundation for Roe v. Wade 1973 which established a women's right to have an abortion. When Adlai Stevenson Ambassador to the United Nations died in 1965 President Johnson decided to appoint Goldberg to fill his seat. Johnson's larger plan was to put Abe Fortas on the bench because he knew Fortas would defend his Great Society programs and spy on the Court for him. Probably a recipient of the legendary Johnson "treatment" Goldberg was persuaded to resign while flying to Stevenson's funeral on Air Force One. Goldberg went on to say that he accepted the UN Ambassadorship in order to resolve the Vietnam Conflict. This photograph may be a memento of that 1965 flight or one of the tools Johnson used to persuade Goldberg. unknown books
18432030Paris: Imprimerie de Schneider et Langrand 1843. First edition. Contemporary 19th century quarter calf binding with green boards; gentle wear to edges. Internally an excellent copy with original wraps bound in; occasional light foxing and small paper loss to margins of last two leaves neither affecting text. Octavo collates complete with 31 pages. An exceptionally rare copy of Sand's first work on social justice of which only 500 were printed. This copy is the only one known to have come onto the market with none in the modern auction records and the only other held at La Bibliotheque Nationale de France.<br /> <br /> Having dedicated the first decade of her career toward writing novels about women's internal and social struggles George Sand made her first move into activism with Fanchette. Shocked by the story of a young girl with mental illness who had been refused refuge in a convent and was soon after discovered pregnant and arrested for begging Sand opted to expose the events in a set of letters printed in the Revue Independente. Following a wave of public outcry "Sand decided to have the letters printed in brochure form with the plan that half the copies would be distributed free to the workers of La Chatre the others sold for the benefit of Fanchette. Five hundred copies of this brochure of thirty-one pages were printed and circulated. The Fanchette case therefore revealing as it did an appalling lack of sympathy for the poor and misfortunate convinced George Sand that an effort should be made to awaken the citizens of La Chatre to their duties as members of a community" Bowes. This publication marked a new phase of Sand's writing career which more directly emphasized social justice particularly for vulnerable women. A rare and important work.

1943111721New York: Random House 1943. First edition of Dahl's rare first book with 14 vibrant full-page illustrations by Walt Disney Productions. Quarto original half cloth pictorial endpapers. Presentation copy inscribed by Disney animator Bill Justice on the half-title page with a large drawing of a Gremlin "Sorry Ray That's a lousy Gremlin Bill Justice." Justice joined Walt Disney Studios as an animator in 1937 and worked on such features as Fantasia The Three Caballeros Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan. He is arguably best known as the animator of the rabbit Thumper from Bambi and chipmunks Chip 'n Dale. He was the director of The Truth About Mother Goose Noah's Ark and A Symposium On Popular Songs all of which were nominated for Academy Awards as Best Short Subject Cartoon. In total Justice worked on 57 shorts and 19 features. Good in the rare original dust jacket with some chips and wear. Dahl was sent to Washington in 1942 as an assistant air attache for the British Embassy. After having a story published anonymously in the Saturday Evening Post he was encouraged by C. S. Forester. He produced The Gremlins a children's story expanding on a mythical creature enshrined for years in RAF lore notwithstanding Dahl's claims to have invented the word and sent it to Sidney Bernstein the head of the British Information Service who sent it on to Walt Disney. Disney decided to make it into a movie at one point bringing Dahl to Hollywood to work on the screenplay. The story was published in Cosmopolitan in December of 1942 and as a book by Random House six months later. The film project however was sidelined and has never been produced. The story was received positively: Eleanor Roosevelt read it to her grandchildren and invited Dahl to the White House. Random House hardcover books

Unbound as issued. Pinholes at gutter some edge chipping and small dents brown stain affecting the upper portion throughout. Otherwise a good well-preserved copy. First edition. Signed at foot by a municipal officer Diez de la Puente. One-page contemporary manuscript on p. 3 relating to the administration of the tax. Unbound as issued. 4 last 2 blank p. <p><br /> Unrecorded 1601 ordinance from Salamanca enforcing the Armada-era servicio de millones Spain’s foundational fiscal levy.<br /> <p><p><br /> Printed ordinance issued by the municipal council of Salamanca implementing the royal tax known as the servicio de los dieciocho millones. In accordance with the royal cédula of 9 February 1601 the Concejo Justicia y Regimiento instructs subordinate towns and villages to collect an eighth part of all wine and olive oil sold to be remitted through a chain of local receivers. The text regulates how wine and oil must be measured recorded and taxed forbids additional repartimientos and orders prompt transfer of funds to the city’s main treasury. Dated at Salamanca 10 March 1601 and naming four municipal commissioners appointed for its execution it represents the earliest stage of local enforcement of Philip III’s fiscal scheme transforming the national levy into a functioning municipal excise. A contemporary handwritten endorsement below the text signed by Diez de la Puente attests its execution. Accompanying the printed ordinance is a contemporary manuscript headed on p. 3 “Dudas que se ofrecen en la administración de las sisas†listing practical questions concerning the execution of the tax—registration and measurement of goods roles of administrators and receivers form of payment penalties and conditions of tax farming arrendamiento.<br /> <p><p><br /> The servicio de los dieciocho millones formed part of the broader system of millones taxes created by the Cortes of Castile to meet the Crown’s desperate financial needs after the prolonged wars of Philip II. The servicio de millones had first been introduced by royal request and approved by the Cortes on 4 April 1590 conceived to raise eight million ducats over six years to finance the royal expenditure associated with the Armada campaign against England and other military commitments. Rather than remaining temporary it evolved into a regular levy on six staple items—wine oil vinegar meat soap and tallow candles—collected through local sisas and eventually forming the backbone of Castile’s fiscal structure. By 1600–1601 under Philip III the scheme was renewed and expanded to eighteen million ducats its collection entrusted to municipal governments such as Salamanca’s Concejo Justicia y Regimiento. As described in Bartolomé Yun Casalilla’s Sobre la transición al capitalismo en Castilla this marked a transition from feudal income to a centralized fiscal system financed through municipal taxation embedding local economies within the machinery of the Habsburg war state. The present ordinance captures this process of consolidation—when the monarchy sought tighter control over municipal revenues demanded proper accounting and remittance of surpluses and aimed to prevent arbitrary over-taxation—reflecting both the fiscal strain and administrative centralization characteristic of early-seventeenth-century Spain.<br /> <p><p><br /> Reference: Yun Casalilla B. 1987.

Excellent copies in a handsome binding. $2500 State of Justice: only edition; Short History: reissue of a title issued three times in 1698. The anonymous author of The State of Justice positions himself as an opponent of bribery and the sale of offices and sinecures and a supporter of an equal distribution of justice and the rule of law. He warns: "It is not the law alone that makes a right government but upright justice and the equal distribution of it which ought to be deeper engraven in the hearts of those who are authorised to execute justice than in tables of stone" 9. It is a learned and somewhat cranky essay filled with references to Roman European and English history. Trenchard's Short Essay is a classic argument against standing armies a central theme in the commonwealthmen tradition that was quite influential in America. This issue was probably a reaction to the expansion of England's military establishment during the Anglo-Spanish War 1727-29 The State of Justice is a rare title.
