A vintage advertising brochure featuring women's fashions including Silk Frocks Easter Hats Spring Coats and Sportswear along with pricing. In 195 John Joseph Haggarty opened the New York Cloak and Suit House a small exclusive women’s clothing store. He did so by securing a building on Broadway in the center of the Los Angeles business district and there laid the foundation for one of the most successful businesses in the commercial history of the city. Having become an esteemed leader in the industry after just a few short years he expanded his business with the opening of Paris Cloak and Suit House. He and his wife made annual trips to New York and Paris to bring the current fashion trends to the West Coast. When this venture had proved a success due in large measure to his expert knowledge of the business Haggarty purchased a controlling interest in another large house known as the Paris Cloak and Suit House. Into it he brought besides capital the wide experience and natural business ability which had made him a success in life. He was regarded as one of the shrewdest business and one of the most accomplished buyers in the foreign and domestic markets. Minor tanning else very good. Joseph P. Knapp, 1899. hardcover

Before entering the city he captured an impressive view of Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives. 52 important sights are marked in the uncoloured lithograph and described in the text. The view of the city is followed by impressions of Christian places of worship such as the Holy Grave the Prison of Christ and the Chapel of Saint Helena in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre the Tomb of the Virgin Mary the Grotto of the Nativity in nearby Bethlehem and an unusual uncoloured view of the interior of the Golden Gate Gate of Mercy.

About very good in publisher's grayish boards with paper spine labels with some spotting and staining particularly to vol. II tear to the foot of vol.

Intended for children and originally composed for the author's family this three-volume work about science was first published in 1827. Originally published anonymously in later editions authorship was credited to Paris. Dedicated to the writer Maria Edgeworth it aims "to blend amusement with instruction" which Paris states Edgeworth has "satisfactorily demonstrated" in her own novels. Topics covered in volume 1 include momentum geometry elasticity and rotatory motion demonstrated using a yo-yo a jack-in-the-box and a slingshot among other toys and games. A fascinating work in science education the work seeks to prove "how profitably and agreeably the machinery of fiction may be worked for the dissemination of truth." Additionally this work is a part of the Cruikshank canon as he contributed several woodcuts.<br /> <br /> 8vo. 3 vols. Cohn 599 for first the edition. Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley unknown
