Firma autografa dell'Artista Signed by the Artist. Nuovo New. Prima edizione First Edition. <em>"Non vedo l'ora che arrivino i fine settimana e a volte fanno schifo tanto quanto la settimana.

Mi sento così" fottuta o come direbbe mio fratello "Sei un mostro!"</em> <em><strong>What She Said</strong> prende il titolo da una canzone degli <strong>Smiths</strong>: &ldquo";What she said was sad / But then all the rejection she's had / To pretend to be happy / Could only be idiocy.”<br /><br />I ritratti di Deanna Templeton sono realizzati per le strade di Stati Uniti Europa Australia e Russia dove Templeton ha catturato le <strong>donne nella loro adolescenza</strong>: punk i cui jeans strappati e collant tatuaggi e acconciature testimoniano il momento di transizione mentre navigano nell'intensità della vita adolescenziale. Templeton è cresciuta in un ambiente apparentemente diverso ma ha riconosciuto in loro qualcosa dell'universalità dell'adolescenza femminile mentre lottavano con delusioni e sfide simili e universali. Il libro combina questi ritratti moderni con i volantini dei concerti e le voci del diario adolescenziale di Templeton dalla metà alla fine degli anni '80 in cui l'esperienza della crescita è" messa a nudo in tutto il suo antagonismo umorismo e pathos.</em> Mack, hardcover

1873List2825Eureka California 1873. Single 5 ½ x 12 inch ledger book with five small pages of notes and one short letter. Forty-two pages of the ledger filled out with many more blank. Some damage to spine on exterior otherwise very good to excellent. Offered here is a wharfage fee account ledger from Eureka California with dates between 1868 and 1873. The first Euro-American settlement at what is now Eureka on the Humboldt Bay was founded in 1850. It became a hub for bringing supplies to the Trinity Klamath and Salmon River mines both by water and over land and a major lumber manufacturing town with seven sawmills by 1858.1 Lumber vessels sent lumber down the Pacific coast as far as Chile. By the 1860s and 70s Eureka’s main exports were lumber and produce including pork and seafood via sailing vessels and there was also regular steamer service taking people and goods between there and San Francisco. Wharfage would have been paid at the port at Eureka for loading or unloading cargo; the ledger tracks ship names alongside either the names of men who loaded the cargo or the cargo type quantities and prices.<br /> <br /> 1 Owen Cochran Coy The Humboldt Bay Region 1850–1875 California State Historical Association 1929. unknown
