19622090202120414927Matsuyama Mosuke 1962. Soft Cover. Fine. Number of books: 1 Matsuyama Mosuke paperback
53p. + Numerous photographs and drawings. 8vo. Original color pictorial wraps, slightly soiled. Nice copy. TRAVEL/1
11 vols., 8vo., First Edition, with very numerous coloured, tinted and monochrome illustrations (many full-page) throughout, some mild offsetting from fold-ins to free endpapers, one or two volumes with neat signatures on endpapers; original series bnding of pictorial boards, a very good, bright, clean set in dustwrapper, a few wrappers mildly age-soiled and frayed at backstrips and extremities. The set comprises 1: Whitbread's Brewery (1947); 2: Your Local (1947); 3: Inn-Signia (1948); 4: The Brewer's Art (1948); 5: Whitbread Craftsmen (1948); 6: Inns of Kent (1948); 7: Inns of Sport; (1949) 8: Receipts and Relishes (1950); 9: Your Club (1950); 10: Inn Crafts and Furnishings (1950); 11: Word for Word (1953). Produced to promote the famous brewery, its products and its houses, the Whitbread Library is a tribute to a passed age of ale, 'the local' and the English countryside which must have seemed idyllic in the aftermath of WWII. Covering all aspects of the art and craft of brewing and related activities, the series was produced partly in-house and partly using well-known authors and illustrators including John Moore, John Wentworth-Day, Bernard Darwin, John Leigh-Pemberton, Ivor Brown and Derrick Harris. The texts are deceptively detailed and all volumes are well-illustrated. Several volumes (especially 2, 3 and 8) are scarce; one (no. 11) is rare; most are now elusive in really good condition with dustwrappers. The series was clearly well-received: The Times termed it a 'novel enterprise in commercial publishing'; the Illustrated London News called it ' a valuable addition to the literature of the trade and our social life'. With the present popularity of real ale and the resurgence of craft brewing, the series deserves the appreciation of another generation. COMPLETE SETS OF THE ORIGINAL EDITION IN DUSTWRAPPERS ARE PARTICULARLY SCARCE.
8vo., First Edition, with numerous coloured and monochrome photographs and illustrations in the text; original pictorial boards, a very good, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper.
196 pages including index and reproductions of black and white photos. "Before he died in 1982, British Columbia's beer baron/construction king had a major impact on the history of B.C. He built highways from northern to southern B.C. He challenged the liquor laws and the major Canadian breweries. He railed against the overly restrictive receivership laws and caused them to be changed, although too late to do him any good." - from dust jacket. Clean and unmarked with light wear. Dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A nice copy of this interesting read. Book

56 articles which appeared in the Vancouver, B.C. press from February 8, 1941 through February 28, 1942. The articles were commissioned by Colonel H.S. Tobin, Managing Director of Vancouver Breweries Limited and appeared in the Vancouver media. Given the dire situation faced by Britain, the directors of the brewery felt it best to set aside the greater portion of its advertising appropriation for patriotic, rather than regular business purposes and these articles were the result. Due to their popularity, they were reprinted in book form. Prior owner's name upon title page. Somewhat above-average external wear to pale green cardcovers which bear a two-inch opening between spine and top of back cover. A worthy copy of this fascinating look back to the early 1940s. Canadian unity is discussed. Book
