A near fine copy but for a sloppily removed label on the inside front cover.<br/><br/> Third edition of Newton's masterpiece."The most influential scientific publication of the 17th century." -Horblit. "The Principia is generally described as the greatest work in the history of science. Copernicus Galileo and Kepler had certainly shown the way; but where they described the phenomena they observed Newton explained the underlying universal laws. The Principia provided the great synthesis of the cosmos proving finally its physical unity. Newton showed that the important and dramatic aspects of nature that were subject to the universal law of gravitation could be explained in mathematical terms within a single physical theory. It was this grand conception that produced a general revolution in human thought equalled perhaps only by that following Darwin's Origin of Species." -PMM.<br/><br/> Harvard University Press unknown books

19331002709No place: no publisher 1933. Ephemeral promotional broadside produced in support of A.S.W. Rosenbach's Early American Children's Books. The broadside reprints Charles F. Heartman's favorable American Book Collector review of Rosenbach's book praising "the Doctor" for the breadth of his vision: "he has succeeded in robbing the dreary religious aspect of most of the early publications of its unattractiveness by injecting humorous remarks and reverting to a philosophical treatment. Regardless if one is a collector of children's books or not this is a scholarly book about books that should have a place in every collector's library." Heartman notes that the foreword by American collector A. Edward Newton makes Rosenbach's book "a necessary item to any collection of Newtoniana" as well. One copy recorded in the Charles F. Heartman Papers at the University of Southern Mississippi; we handled a second copy in 2015. A very good copy of a striking broadside. Color-printed pictorial broadside measuring 17.5 x 12.5 inches. Two faint creases from folding several small paper repairs and evidence of previous mount to verso one short closed tear. no publisher unknown books

Collection of five vintage bumper stickers from the 1968 political campaigns run via a collaboration between the Black Panthers and the Peace and Freedom Party. <br/><br/>Each of the stickers were made for various Peace and Freedom Party political campaigns including: Mario Savio for California state senator Black Panther founders Huey Newton and Bobby Seale and Eldridge Cleaver for president and two stickers simply advertising the Peace and Freedom Party itself. <br/><br/>In 1968 the Black Panthers would move away from direct actions including their legendary confrontations with the Berkeley police department and briefly into the political sphere when they joined forces with the PFP a left-wing anti-war party advocating Black liberation women's liberation and LGBTQ rights. The campaigns were largely seen as political statements as Cleaver was a convicted felon and technically ineligible for the presidency due to his being under the age of 35 by the time of inauguration and as Newton and Seale were on trial at the time repeatedly being denied their civil liberties. <br/><br/>All items rare each with original peel-off paper backing and each between 4 x 13.5 an 4 x 15 inches. Near Fine and unused with light soil on two of the stickers and rubber stamp for the "Lancaster County Peace & Freedom Movement Organizing Committee" on the verso of one sticker.
