182757374Randers Elmenhoff 1827-29. Indbundet i 12 ensartede lidt senere hldrbd. Rig rygforgyldning forgyldte skindtitler. Første hefte i første bind er på skrivepapir og lidt afvigende i størrelse hvorfor nederste margin er formeret med ca. 1 cm. og her er også et blad repareret for en mindre rift med tab af enkelte bogstaver i de sidste 8 linier. Her og der med lidt spredte brunpletter men et ganske velbevaret eksemplar. De fleste bind har Einar Christiansens exlibris. <br/><br/><em>Originaltrykket af "Nordlyset" i komplet stand og af største sjældenhed. Det meste af tidsskriftets indhold blev leveret af Blicher selv og det er heri at nogle af Blichers store og vigtigste noveller er udkommet så som "Jøderne paa Hald" "Præsten i Vejlbye" "Hosekræmmeren" "Hvor forandret" "Røverstuen" "Sildig Opvaagnen" "Kjeltringeliv" oversættelsen af Goldsmiths "Præsten i Wakefield" samt en lang række andre fortællinger og artikler. Det er her i Nordlysperioden at Blicher for alvor finder sin fortælleform og stil.Bertelsen 12. - Bibliografi over indholdet i "Nordlyset" se S.

1870WRCAM56703Denver: S.S. Wallihan & Co. 1870. 442pp. plus 7pp. of ads at the front 59pp. of ads at the rear and 144pp. of ads interspersed in the text. Original blue cloth stamped in gilt. Minor edge wear and light soiling to boards. Internally clean. Very good plus. This directory here in its first year of publication is an extremely detailed compendium of information and statistics on virtually every aspect of Colorado territory covering its history geography and geology natural resources etc. "This Directory gives useful information on the early territorial history of Colorado including the various conventions and forms of government in the early days railroads colonization and early mining" - Streeter. The volume also includes an accurate directory for Denver Golden City Black Hawk Central City Nevada Idaho Georgetown Greeley Colorado City Pueblo Trinidad etc. An appendix for the Denver directory includes the noted western artist A.E. Mathews who had recently published GEMS OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN SCENERY and the Chinese tea dealer Tang Fee. This text is further supplemented by more than 200 pages of advertisements for local businesses. A more useful and comprehensive guide to pre- statehood Colorado would be difficult to find. Though published in Denver by Samuel Wallihan who also edited the work this book was printed in Chicago and is therefore also an example of a Chicago ante-fire imprint. However it is not listed in the American Imprints Inventory list of Ante-Fire imprints nor is it in Eberstadt Graff or Decker. Howell paid $110 for the Streeter copy in 1969. HOWES C611.

"Rettelser til Nordlysetes 6 sidste Hæfter for 1827". <br/><br/><em>De sjældne originaludgaver af 9 af de 12 hæfter der kom i første årgang af Blichers berømmede tidsskrift "Nordlyset". Af den første årgang er kommet 4 bind med 3 hæfter i hvert. I alt udkom 12 bind med 3 hæfter i hvert fra 1827 til 1829. Langt størstedelen af bidragene er af Blicher selv bl.a. findes hér nogle af hans mest berømte og skattede værker såsom "Røverstuen" 2. bind 3. hæfte de første 4 samt 6. og sidste del af "Præsten af Wakefield" 2. bind 1.2. og 3. hæfte 3. bind 2. og 3. hæfte samt det sjældne indlednings- og programdigt "Nordlyset" naturligvis 1. bind 1. hæfte.Bertelsen 12.Det er klart at "Nordlyset" var mere end blot et tidsskrift der skulle foreligge som det sekundære valg til Elmquists "Læsefrugter" som Blicher nyligt havde valgt ikke at bidrage til længere da han ikke fik forhøjet betaling. "Nordlyset" skulle være et konkurrencedygtigt tidsskrift og det skulle tiltrække læsere. Det er således morsomt at se hvilken type læsere Blicher henvender sig til i den første årgang af tidsskiftet Indhold af den første hæfte: Nordlyset - Fruentimmerhaderen - Aline - Femten Fangers Flugt af Revolutionsfængslerne i Lyon - Scener af Bastillen - Den pavelige Soldat - Pierre la Grand den første Flibustier - En Aftenunderholdning paa Dagbjerg Dos - Robin Hood - Baggesen; "Her var dog noget for enhver Smag men især var der noget for Fruentimmernes Smag - for at tale i den Tids Sprog. "Fruentimmerhaderen" var i Virkeligheden en genial Titel set fra et Reklamesynspunkt thi det turde have været ligesaa uomtvistelig Kendgerning i 1827 som 90 Aar senere at Kvinderne interesserer sig mindst ligesaa meget for de Mandfolk der ikke kan lide dem som for dem der elsker dem." Sørensen Nordlys-Perioden i Blichers Digtning p. 97.Tidsskriftet får da også ganske god medvind og det er heri vi finder nogle af Blichers vigtigste noveller. Det er nok også gennem dette tiddskrift at man ser Blicher modnes til den ypperlige forfatter vi kender ham som i dag. Gennem dette tidsskrift følger vi Blichers eksperimenteren med forskellige genrer og stilarter. </em> unknown
1887417304Fitchburg Mass. 1887. Unbound. Very Good. Approximately 9" x 14.5". Old folds with neat professional reinforcement on the verso small chips and tears in the margins mostly at the corners a sound and very good example. Interesting political broadside from a little-known and relatively short-lived progressive party that was interested in printing money in order to buy land for poor people between the towns of Fitchburg and Leominster in order to make it a single city. The dating of the broadside is a little confusing: dated in 1885 but then mentions meetings in 1886 and 1887 the one in 1887 seemingly anticipates a meeting in October of 1887. One statement notes: "Our party point and plan is to improve strengthen and build up the government and remove the burden of taxes from the people and ever stand ready to receive any good move come before them and have women a chance to vote."
