1888221661888. Original patent documentation for Edmond Verstraete's innovative 1888 railway car design an uncommon surviving artifact from the era of rapid industrial expansion and technological advancement in American rail transport. Verstraete Edmond. Railway Car. Washington D.C.: U.S. Patent Office July 24 1888. Patent No. 386512. First edition. 2 printed lithograph sheets measuring 9" x 7". Signed by inventor and witnesses. Includes two detailed mechanical drawings by Verstraete with formal submission details signed by the inventor and his attorney.<br /> <br /> This patent filed during a period when the U.S. railroad network was transforming American commerce and mobility documents Verstraete's reconfiguration of the passenger car interior and structural layout. The diagrams show side and overhead views of a self-contained passenger railcar marked by articulated platform entries segmented internal seating and a defined vestibule region. Of note are the annotated elements marked "x" in red ink labeled as "Lower entries" and "Passengers" likely indicating areas of operational focus or examiner queries. The first sheet offers a longitudinal cross-section while the second presents a plan and elevation revealing design emphasis on safety comfort and structural balance.<br /> <br /> The late 19th century witnessed a proliferation of railway car patents as inventors sought to enhance efficiency passenger experience and operational safety in the context of growing urban transit systems and long-haul travel routes. Verstraete's work fits within this inventive surge paralleling the emergence of Pullman cars electric trolleys and elevated rail networks. As cities like New York Chicago and San Francisco expanded rail-based infrastructure designs such as this laid the groundwork for more integrated mass transit and intercity rail travel. Light toning minor smudge at lower margin of first sheet archival notations in red and pencil at margin; "EXAMINER" hand-stamped at top. Overall very good condition. A scarce and compelling primary document reflecting the ingenuity and regulatory mechanics of the Gilded Age railroad boom ideal for researchers in industrial history transportation technology and the evolution of public transit. unknown

It's a few days before Christmas and Callahan thinks for once she has things under control. Her presents are all bought her baking is almost done and she's relaxing with a well-earned drink when her brother Brian--missing for over ten years--strolls through the door whistling off-key carols and lugging his two-year-old daughter Maura in his arms. Happy as she is to see her charming brother and her ever-more-charming niece Callahan hasn't forgotten that Brian carries trouble wherever he goes. That's never been truer than now for Brian reveals he's kidnapped Maura from his estranged wife who's on the warpath and of course has the law on her side. When Brian's ex-wife is found dead in her spectacularly messy apartment the law comes down on Brian big time. True to form Brian disappears again leaving Maura behind for Callahan to look after and forcing her to clear his name without his help. For Callahan knows that although Brian is many things he's no murderer. As the Christmas rush picks up Callahan her irascible mom Edna and a gaggle of House Mouse employees submerge themselves in the most dangerous undercurrents of Atlanta street life and head for wherever else in the New South's yuletide their search for truth leads them. In true Trocheck tradition Midnight Clear is heartwarming chilling and hilarious--a thoroughly up-to-date and irresistible Christmas tale. --Source: Publisher ; Kathy Hogan Trocheck was born on July 27 1954 in St. Petersburg Florida.
