1864981Havana: Viuda de Barcina y Comp 1864. Good. Twenty-three issues each approximately 32pp. No. 11 with folding chart lacks pp.25-32. No. 13 lacking last few leaves. With title page and half title at start of each volume. Original quarter calf and boards spine gilt. Spine ends chipped and worn some crude glue residue; hinges solid. Boards heavily worn. Light toning and wear to text light scattered worming throughout. A rare run of the first two years of the first Cuban pharmacological magazine and one of the island's earliest medical periodicals. La Emulacion was published from 1863 through 1867 with the present sammelband containing all issues published in 1863 and 1864 a total of twenty-three issues. Their mission statement that heads the first issue here reads in part: "Animados del deseo de ser útiles al pais -- en cuanto nuestras fuerzas lo permitan-- hemos resuelto dar à luz en esta ciudad un periódico que ocupándose preferentemente de todo lo relativo à la Farmacia no descuide por eso la quÃmica é historia natural médicas y la toxicologÃa ciencias de que no pueden prescindir ni los Médicos ni los Farmacéuticos y cuya importancia en el dia pocos podrán desconocer. Procurarémos pues que en nuestro periódico hallen cabida las producciones originales de los que en Cuba cultivan la Farmacia la quÃmica é historia natural médicas y la toxicologÃa; mas no olvidarémos por eso que léjos de nuestro suelo existen los mas célebres y laboriosos de los cultivadores de esas ciencias y que La Emulacion no llenarÃa la mision que nos proponemos si no hiciéramos figurar en ella lo que se dé à luz en Europa y merezca la sancion de las personas ilustradas." The resulting publication contains numerous original articles by Cuban pharmacists doctors and scientists as well as important work published outside of Cuba. Additionally the issues include biographies of significant figures in the field accounts of local scientific societies including the Real Academica de Ciencias de la Habana and publication of new pharmacological formulas discovered in Cuba or "adapted for the needs of the country." As a result the periodical forms an important record of medical and pharmacological developments and thought on the island in the mid-19th century. We locate only one run of this pioneering periodical at the National Library of Cuba with only the present set of issues appearing in auction records. Bound between Volumes I and II is a pamphlet by Fernando Paez "Manual de farmacia practica" Havana 1864 possibly incomplete at 8 pages; no examples of this pamphlet appear in OCLC.

18551160San Antonio: Adolf Douai 1855. Very good. 4pp. Large folio. Previously folded. Contemporary ownership inscription at head of title. Light foxing and creasing. A scarce December 1855 issue of this socialist abolitionist German Texas newspaper the San Antonio Zeitung "Ein sozial-demokratisches Blatt für die Deutschen in West-Texas." "The San Antonio Zeitung. began weekly publication as San Antonio's first German-language newspaper on July 1 1853 under the editorship of C. D. Adolph Douai a German-born scholar teacher and social reformer. The newspaper written largely in German was aimed at the large German population in San Antonio and the surrounding region. In a prospectus Douai announced that the Zeitung would regard every political question from the viewpoint of social progress. He published the free-soil platform adopted by the Texas State Convention of Germans in 1854 and in a series of editorials attacked the institution of slavery as an evil incompatible with democratic government a form of government that required "free tillers of their own soil. But many merchants fearful of being associated with the abolitionists withdrew their advertisements from the paper and several German communities passed resolutions publicly condemning it. Douai continued doggedly and in the February 9 1855 issue of the Zeitung went so far as to declare that western Texas must be free. In May 1856 with ill-feeling mounting and revenues on the decline he was forced to sell the paper. It was purchased by a member of the opposition Gustav Schleicher who took over the publication and renamed it the San Antonio Staats-Zeitung" - Handbook of Texas Online. The present issue published on December 15 1855 contains an article on the situation of Chinese immigration to California an account of Know-Nothing Party violence in Maine news on sectional and slavery issues from across the country entitled "The Separation of the Union" including reports on the ongoing saga in Kansas as well as several columns on news from Germany and copious advertising for German businesses in San Antonio and the surrounding area. OCLC locates only microfilm and digital holdings of the periodical though the source of the physical holdings appears to be UTSA. We locate no runs or single issues of the paper in archived sales records other than the present issue. A good example of this rare and important anti-slavery Texas newspaper.

In March of 1832 Charles Knight published the first issue of The Penny Magazine. As a project of The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge SDUK the magazine aligned with the organization's mission to distribute easily accessible non-radical educational materials to working class Londoners. A new Magazine was published every week and featured wholesome articles on history geography natural science and general trivia. Annuals like these compiled a year's worth of issues into one handsome volume and were available for 7s 6d about £25 today.<br/><br/>The Penny Magazine's 1d about £0.25 today price plus copious wood-engraved illustrations initially made the publication very appealing to a broad audience. In a somewhat ironic twist this low-cost magazine had very high production costs due to the number of illustrations. Not even a modest price increase to 4d could salvage the budget and The Penny Magazine issued its last on October 31 1847. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge unknown books

Two Spring 1945 issues of this rare U.S. armed forces newspaper published in New Caledonia in the South Pacific Ocean both full of momentous war news.

A second sizable article reports on major Allied advances in Europe and a large map printed on the third page shows American British and Russian forces closing in on Berlin. Several other articles provide accounts of American victories against the Japanese in the Philippines and Okinawa and of bombing raids on Tokyo. The second issue dated may 5 is headlined "Allies Mop Up In Reich" and documents the collapse of the German armies in the days before the final surrender and is further highlighted by a cartoon depicting Hitler being stuck outside the gates of Hell until his death is confirmed by the Allied command. This issue also contains items of local interest such as scheduled social events for that Saturday night and the program for Sunday church services.
