19516588New York: Dodd Mead & Company 1951. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 5 5/8 X 8 1/8 Inches. 272 PP. First printing copy of this early history of the Oak Island Treasure as well as wrecks in Bermuda and the Cape Cod sinking of the Pirate Ship Whidah. Signed and inscribed by author to early explorer of the Whidah John Francis Light. Light who was a teenager when he started studying the Whidah wreck never located the treasure. It was found by Barry Clifford in 1984. Very early signature from the year of publication. Light's account of the shipwreck and his discoveries are a major part of the book itself. This book is also the FIRST APPEARANCE OF KEMPTON'S cipher translated as "Forty feet below two million pounds lie buried" IN REGARDS TO THE OAK ISLAND TREASURE! A scarce and very important copy with possibly the finest provenance that any copy could have. <br /> <br /> Light toning and some tearing to final few pages that uncut and later pulled apart I would assume by Light who wanted the finish reading the book.

1882List3658Boston Massachusetts: W. A. Evans & Bro 1882. Folio illustrated wraps. Pages detached from each other small chip to corner images and music fine remains good to very good and quite attractive. Good to very good. A visually striking example of Oscar Wilde–related ephemera issued during the height of the writer’s American lecture tour of 1882. Though lacking a printed date the title strongly suggests publication in connection with Wilde’s appearance at the Boston Music Hall on January 31 1882 where he delivered his lecture “The English Renaissance†as part of his widely publicized tour across the United States. Contemporary accounts describe the event as a notable cultural moment including the presence of Harvard students dressed in exaggerated aesthetic costume who occupied the front rows of the hall reflecting both the fascination with and satirical reception of Wilde’s aesthetic persona.1<br /> <br /> The lithographic cover prominently depicts a figure carrying an oversized sunflower an image closely associated with Wilde and the broader Aesthetic Movement. Such illustrated sheet music functioned not only as musical publications but also as collectible artifacts capitalizing on the figure of Wilde. Over the course of several months he traveled widely across the United States and Canada delivering lectures on art decoration and cultural taste and quickly became a subject of both admiration and parody in the American press. Although he never returned for a comparable national tour Wilde maintained a lasting connection to American audiences. We know of a variant edition of the Evans imprint with a different illustration as well as a different version published in Boston by Ditson the same year. <br /> <br /> OCLC 500491189 specifying this edition with the large sunflower illustration locating five copies. <br /> <br /> 1 “Freshmen at Oscar Wilde’s Lecture†The Harvard Crimson February 1 1882.

1866List806Washington: For the Author 1866. 8vo blue wraps 42 pp. Apparently a gift copy from Curtis. Near fine overall with minimal wear. Near Fine. A scarce survival from Lorenzo Snow’s trial in the U.S. Supreme Court for polygamy under the Edmunds Act where two of his three convictions were eventually overturned as the court determined that the offense was continuous and therefore only warranted a single conviction. George Ticknor Curtis defended Snow and published this edition of his speech himself. Curtis argued that Snow had lived continuously with one woman and defended his right to have multiple “wives†as a matter of religious freedom. This copy with “From the Author†on the top margin of the title wrap apparently presented as a gift from Curtis. For the Author unknown
