1909018815New York: Burr Publishing Co 1909. Wraps. Fair. Color illustrated wraps with a string tied binding. Unpaginated. Black and white photos throughout as well as one apparent painted photo by Karl Moon. Single issue of this monthly magazine this one relying heavily on photographs. Of note are a series of 14 Photographs by Carl moon an American photographer perhaps best known for his photographs of Native Americans. These photos depict Native Americans living in the Taos New Mexico area and are reminiscent of the work by Edward Curtis. While some critics have acclaimed his work for its documentation of Native American life the work seems to mythologize the false concept of the disappearance of Native Americans in the US. The article concludes "we are loath to confess that in the final count it is best that man's progress in the cultivation of land should be unchecked and our reluctance lies in the fact that this change must toll the knell of the Redman's sic day." Among the other photos in the book are photos of celebrities and of the Hudson-Fulton celebration in New York. Included in these photos is one depicting Wilbur Wright flying over Governor's Island in New York. His flight that day included the first over water and the canoe that he mounted underneath the airplane as a precaution against a water landing can be seen in the photo. FAIR condition. Frontispiece illustration haphazardly cut out of the magazine. Very heavy scuffing chipping creasing tearing and loss to the covers along the extremities with most of the spine missing. Some creasing soiling and staining to the covers with superficial paper loss to the rear cover. Large faint pencil circle present to the front cover. A very small old price sticker at the upper right corner of the front cover. Very light scattered foxing in the interior. Burr Publishing Co unknown

020868Aransas Pass TX: Published By the Author. Wraps. Good. no date perhaps 1955. Side stapled wraps 8 ½ by 11 inches. 12 pp. including covers. Second and perhaps final issue of this zine created by Maril Shrewsbury. Although listed as a member of FAPA Fantasy Amateur Press Association this zine appears to have little to nothing to do with fantasy in the sense meant. Shrewsbury was a carnival worker who was tasked with painting 12 by 26 inch pictures in under 6 minutes see Fancyclopedia 3 website. Her first issue of Heck drew heavily on carnival life and culture while this issue only offers two pages of insight into the culture. The rest is devoted to snippets of letters subtle sexual innuendo etc. All said this zine feels well ahead of its time. GOOD condition. Uneven toning and fading along the extremities. Heavy toning to the interior. Published By the Author unknown
1868020422New York: Susan B. Anthony Proprietor; R.J. Johnson Publisher 1868. Wraps. Fair. Side sewn journal. Approximately 12 ¼ by 9 inches. 16 pp. Early issue of the Revolution a groundbreaking and influential newspaper produced by Elizabeth Cady Stanton Susan B. Anthony and Parker Pillsbury. The paper was established to provide a voice to activists and suffragists such as Stanton and Anthony whose voices were marginalized by the mainstream press as well as many abolitionist publications with whom they had been previously allied. Anthony and Stanton advocated for an amendment giving suffrage to women along with the amendment sponsored by abolitionists that would give Black men the right to vote. Many abolitionists actively discouraged Stanton and Anthony from pursuing their amendment until the amendment enfranchising Black men passed creating a rift in the abolitionist movement as well as the women's suffrage movement. Feeling betrayed by abolitionists and Republicans who initially supported them they established the Revolution with financial help from George Francis Train a Democrat who supported women's rights but was openly racist. As the name indicates The Revolution adopted a combative radical tone with Stanton and others unafraid to take on critics. The paper openly discussed sexual and physical abuse in marriage and advocated better divorce laws that would offer women a way to escape abusive marriages. In 1869 the paper broke with Train who had supplied very little of the funding he initially offered. It published until 1872 struggling to make expenses along the way. This with a lengthy editorial by Elizabeth Cady Stanton on a proposed amendment for manhood suffrage harshly criticizing the amendment. FAIR condition. Front and rear leaf very tenuously attached with the binding a bit fragile. Front leaf being held on by a torn small section of margin. Several fold creases present with other general wrinkling.
