Contemporary gilt-ruled dark green calf A.E.G. Rubbed marked and bumped. Marbled endpapers very occasional inked corrections to text. A scare late-eighteenth century edition of the standing orders of one of the most exclusive military organisations in Georgian England; the Light Horse Volunteers or L.H.V. Revived in 1794 in response to a growing invasion threat from Revolutionary France along with numerous Mounted and infantry Volunteer Corps across England the L.H.V. was composed almost exclusively of wealthy and titled men of the capital. As this volume details the corps were very well provisioned and membership was secured by recommendation and election. Corps rules established that mounts were stabled at Worship St. or Gray's Inn Lane and uniforms were to be secured from specified retailers such as Hawkes Piccadilly for helmets. All early editions are uncommon and presumably printed in small runs for members. ESTC records copies of this second revised edition at two locations in the British Isles Bishopsgate Institute and BL and none elsewhere. ESTC T130561. Second edition with alterations and additions. 24mo. Printed for the Corps, by Bunney, thompson, and Co. unknown

1911145731Adelaide: Royal Geographical Society of Australasia South Australian Branch and printed by R.E.E. Rogers Government Printer 1911. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Adelaide Royal Geographical Society of Australasia South Australian Branch and printed by R.E.E. Rogers Government Printer 1911 enlarged edition. Octavo viii 108 vi 84 pages printed on handmade paper plus 16 pages of plates 2 folding maps and 2 folding facsimile documents. Gilt-pictorial vellum top edge gilt others uncut and unopened; one opening slightly tanned from the ribbon marker; a fine copy in the original plain paper dustwrapper a little sunned and torn with the title added later in ink on the spine. Number 190 of only 200 copies numbered and signed by Thomas Gill. This is a deluxe enlarged edition of a work first published as the Supplement to Volume 11 of the Proceedings of the RGSSA in the same year. The extra material includes text maps and facsimile documents. <p>We have only encountered the dustwrapper once before and the small oval label of the 'Government Printing Office Adelaide S.A.' gilt on red cloth mounted on the rear pastedown is uncommon in our experience. Loosely inserted are two interesting pieces of ephemera indicating that this was one of several copies offered for sale by ballot to members of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia South Australian Branch in 1978. The Society was the original publisher and it purchased the author's collection after his death in 1923 so these retained copies - released nearly 70 years after the work was published - could have come from either source.

108942Fine. A gelatin silver photograph 237 × 307 mm unmounted as issued: in fine condition. The ink-stamp of the photographer 'J. Gazard 111 King Wm. St. Adelaide' is on the verso together with a pencilled caption reading: 'June 21 1905. Unveiling of the Monument to Colonel Light the founder of Adelaide in Light Square Adelaide where his remains are buried'. Light Square became the burial place of Colonel William Light in 1839; the original monument erected over his grave in 1843 became damaged and was replaced. 'The new monument which still stands today consisted of a theodolite placed on a tall column. It was unveiled on the 21 June 1905 to a large crowd that included "old colonists" who had witnessed Light's funeral 66 years previously seated on either side of the monument. Sir Samuel Way addressed the crowd reinforcing Light's legend by recalling the achievements and adventures of the founder of Adelaide. The Mayor of Adelaide Mr Theodore Bruce then proceeded with the unveiling of the monument' 'Adelaidia' website. This impressive image captures it all. unknown

191253705Association Island Henderson Harbor NY: N.E.L.A. General Electric Corporation 1912. Oblong folio. 14.25 x 10.75 in. 40 leaves unnumbered. composed of thick brown paper stock w/ Arts & Crafts motif borders & decorations in mauve. With 101 tipped-in original silver gelatin sepia-tinted photographs ranging in size from 2 in. rounds to 5.5 x 9.95 in. and all are mounted into the albums most with printed text captions. Original brown half-suede over brown softcovers yapp edges stamped gilt N.E.L.A. logo and title on front cover stamped in gilt minor edgewear rubbing still VG exemplar. First edition of this lavishly produced souvenir album filled with original photographs of the antics by participants for the National Electric Lamp Association at their Camp National. Association Island in Henderson Harbor NY was purchased in 1905 from private owners and renamed. This lavishly appointed island contained a town hall dining hall with full staff of waitresses and housekeepers a hospital tent swimming pool areas for tents recreational trap shooting baseball diamonds theatre and marina for sport boating. These photos vividly portray how these mid-summer retreats were filled with conferences but also devoted to the executives reliving the joys of the summer camp retreats of the well-to-do childhoods during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. They created pennants went sport fishing played in tennis tournaments croquet matches poker games baseball games parades costume parties minstrel shows plays parties and more. These Camp National events continued on a more subdued scale after General Electric acquired N.E.L.A. and began using Association Island as a corporate retreat and training center for GE executives customers and employees through the end of the 1950s. The Elfun Society General Electric’s famed think-tank was founded in 1928 on the Island and named in honor of the historic elm tree depicted in the decorative borders. General Electric’s use of Association Island even served as the basis for Kurt Vonnegut’s first novel Player Piano in 1952 a satire of the antics of engineers and managers of a large unnamed corporation on their annual retreat. The National Electric Lamp Association was founded at the end of the 19th century during a great deal of turmoil in the incandescent lamp industry and a number of small lamp manufacturers needed to pool their resources in order to compete with General Electric. Ironically Franklin Terry Burton & Henry Tremaine John & Robert Crouse founded the Company in 1901 with 75% of the needed capital from GE who was to remain a silent partner. A number of the small companies such as Sterling Electric The Economy Electric Co. and many others were able to use the labs set up by N.E.L.A. and within a few years had gained nearly 50% of the total lamp production in the United States. However in 1911 the U.S. Government brought an anti-trust suit against the N.E.L.A. and GE exercised their option to buy the remaining 25% and they officially all became part of General Electric forming the National Quality Lamp Division.

193637103N.P.: Privately printed 1936. 1936. CANADA. 8 7/8" x 8 1/8" folded in half in green pictorial wrappers. 100 pp. illustrations advertisements maps. Overview and history of Quebec. Information on the Quebec Railway Light & Power Co. Montmorency Falls Citadel Brick various activities available etc. Much information on the Shrine of Ste. Anne de Beaupre the disaster of March 29th 1922 the relics the miracles the fountain the Cyclorama of the Holy Land etc. "The basilica in Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré was initially a shrine to honor Saint Anne. On March 8 1658 a man by the name of Etienne de Lessard donated two frontal acres from the West end of his property to the Catholic Church so that a chapel could be built. This chapel eventually became the site of the modern-day basilica. It was built for two reasons: to provide a place of worship for the new settlers in the area and to house a miraculous statue of St. Anne. The first reported miracle at the site happened during the shrine’s construction. A man named Louis Guimond was hired to help build the shrine even though he suffered from rheumatism. After placing three stones upon the shrine’s foundation Guimond was cured of all his ailments. This was followed by other testimonies of healed people and the shrine soon grew in popularity. Many pilgrims came to the shrine hoping to receive a miracle. Because of the popularity of the shrine the building was enlarged several times to accommodate all the pilgrims. In 1876 the first basilica opened for worship. On March 29 1922 the basilica was destroyed by fire. The present-day basilica was built on the site of the prior church in 1926." Booklet offers an official guide to the historical sites of the Church of Ste. Anne de Beaupre and also a guide to the historical relics in the vestry.
