1725557731725. Image of Furnival's Inn by Noted Engraver Sutton Nicholas. Furnival's Inn c. 1725. 13" x 18" copperplate engraving handsomely matted and glazed. Image notably fresh. $400. This engraving which has a caption near the top margin offers a bird's eye view of the courtyard of Furnival's Inn its buildings and the surrounding neighborhood. The appearance of the Inn and the clothing and vehicles of the figures places the date of this image in the early decades of the eighteenth century. Sutton was highly regarded for his topographical engravings. Many were created for later editions of John Stow's Survey of the Cities of London and Westminster which is probably the source of this plate. Furnival's Inn was an Inn of Chancery attached to Lincoln's Inn that was founded in 1383. Sir Thomas More was a reader at this Inn; Dickens rented rooms there in 1834 to 1837 the time when he was writing the Pickwick Papers. unknown books

191166101Nashville: Orion 1911. Fourth version. Hardcover. Very Good. 193p. 19cm. Attractive modern quarterbinding with marbled boards. Text has some wear and a few brown spots. No Jacket. Rev. Griggs was the author of a number of books and is best known for the five novels he wrote and self-published between 1899 and 1908. This is a non-fiction item about racial issues which was apparently first published in 1909 in 2 versions of 116 and 134 pages a third version in 1910 of 145 pages and 2 further versions in 1911 of 193 and 259 pages. This makes this a copy the 4th version or edition. We owe this information to John Gruesser a professor of English at Kean University who inquired about the contents of another copy and was kind enough not to mention our previous misidentification of the edition. The 5th version added a final section with a separate title-page "Beyond the End" and table of contents but does not appear to have revised any of the material in the first 193 pages. <br/><br/> Orion hardcover books

This encyclopedia is divided into two main sections I labels and II companies. For example many labels used Bridgeport Die & Machine Company to actually press their records. The labels are described in the first part of the book and the companies like Bridgeport Die are described in the second section.
