19034074691903. Softcover. Very Good. Oblong large octavo album. Worn leather covers and front cover detached. Contains 165 black and white gelatin silver photos lacking two others removed from their mounts of varying sizes ranging between 1.25" x 3" and 6" x 8" many with hand-written captions in white album ink. Newton B. Coghill's name and address are hand-lettered on the first page. Many of the photos show a group of young men and women on what was apparently their annual pilgrimages to Willow Camp beyond the relatively new settlement of Mill Valley first in September of 1901 then later in July of 1902 and finally in August of 1903. They are shown on the beach at Willow Camp on their way to Bonita Light House and Lone Pine Tree hiking Mt. Tamalpais the Castle Crags of Shasta County and the snow covered Mt. Shasta plus views of Mossbrea Falls Black Buttes and the source of the Sacramento River 93 photos.<br /> <br /> An additional 25 photos are primarily scenic views of unidentified mountains valleys and waterfalls presumably from the same area of Northern California. There are also 12 possibly stock photo images of Mt. Shasta with printed captions in the margins. There are six photos of a hike taken by a group of young men only captioned "One Sunday in January we walked from Mill Valley to the Summit of Bolinas Ridge" which includes images of the tired group lounging at the top with beer glasses in hand. There is a photo of the Tavern of Tamalpais. Seven images show the group of young men and women playing tennis at Mr. Billings' Court and Tournament and at Eastland Tennis Court. In addition there are two photos of Stanford University including one of an arch with a young woman in cap and gown; two photos at Ben Weeds Amphitheatre Berkeley Commencement Exercises in 1903 a game of tug-of-war five against one "We Boys have a Pull with Anita". Additionally there are images set in downtown San Francisco where Coghill worked one photo shows the "Donohoe Statue" at the junction of Market & Battery Streets in San Francisco; three more show scenes "at the store" during the Teamsters Strike July 1901 and one pictures a Chinese cobbler on Jackson Street. All of the photos are very good and clear. Newton B. Coghill 1873-1966 whose photographs are collected in this album was the son of Andrew Jackson Coghill of San Francisco. A.J. Coghill was at one time a partner with his two brothers James Henry Coghill and William Newton Coghill in the firm of J.H. Coghill & Co. later Coghill Lyon & Co. wholesale grocers and commission merchants in San Francisco. Newton whose occupation in several city directories from the early 1900's is listed as clerk or salesman may have been a part of the firm. The three photos of the Teamsters Strike of 1901 seems to indicate he was part of an affected business. The Donohoe Labor Statue he photographed in downtown San Francisco survived the earthquake in 1906 though the buildings visible in the photograph did not.<br /> <br /> This group of photos primarily shows his recreational activities with friends in the area of Mill Valley. This small city just north of San Francisco was incorporated in 1900. The decade preceding incorporation saw an increase in population in the region as people came from San Francisco to enjoy the hiking and beaches. The area later designated as Muir Woods was nearby. The annual trips Coghill and his friends made to Willow Camp renamed Stinson Beach in 1916 required both train and stagecoach travel to reach it. They played tennis on the courts built by entrepreneur and early property owner George Billings owner of 'Redwood Lodge.' Amongst his compatriots on these trips some were apparently connected with Stanford University and University of California Berkeley. The two commencement photos at Ben Weed's Amphitheatre were taken in May of 1903 when the theatre was still under construction. President Theodore Roosevelt gave the commencement address that year. unknown

This treatise on optics was first published in English in 1704 the first Latin edition published in 1706. Sir Isaac Newton 1643-1727 was an English physicist mathematician astronomer alchemist philosopher and theologian. He is most well-known for his "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" published in 1687 laying the ground work for most classical mechanics. He built the first practical reflecting telescope and he developed a theory of color based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into many colors that form the visible light spectrum. He expanded on these theories in "Opticks". We find 20 libraries worldwide holding the book.

1892457459Cincinnati; Chicago 1892. Near Fine. A small archive of six letters written to C. Jay French general manager of the American Bell Telephone Company including two holograph letters and a telegram written in 1879 by the Theodore Vail who oversaw the building of America's first coast to coast telephone system. The remaining four letters are from four business colleagues in 1892. Each set of letters is neatly pinned together at the upper left corner: the first with an autograph note by French; and the second with a clipping outlining French's career. Both sets are in fine condition overall.<br /> <br /> Contemporary journalists called Theodore Vail the “Cincinnatus of Communications†and modern biographers call him “one of the two or three foremost organizing geniuses in the history of American industry.†In 1878 he was called to run Bell Telephone as its general manager just two years after Alexander Graham Bell patented his invention of the telephone in 1876. He helped establish the country’s first commercial telephone exchange lines in 1878 and organized the Bell empire in the 1880s.<br /> <br /> The two Vail letters retained by French reveal his direct management style: the first was written to the head of a regional Bell company at Cincinnati to introduce French: “… As he will be in your city for a few days I would like if you would give him all the insight possible into the manner of conducting an exchange and also any other information in regard to the Telephone business that may be in your power.â€<br /> <br /> The second letter outlines French’s duties: “You will make it your first duty to visit the different agencies of this Co. and establish a correct uniform and prompt system of reports to this Company … You will consult freely and fully with all agents … You will impress upon the agents the necessity of the Company being fully advised as to the operations of the agency. In all cases we desire reports of the business – In all cases also it is the desire of this Company that the agents’ interest be consulted.â€<br /> <br /> The other set of letters were written by four leading managers to congratulate French for his promotion to general manager of the American Bell Telephone Company in 1892. A scarce cache of letters documenting the beginning of America’s telephone exchange network. A list of both sets of letters is available. unknown
1813117185London: H.M.S.O. 1813. First edition thus of Newton's reports to the Privy Council or the Treasury during his position of Master of His Majesty's Mint the report signed and dated in print 21 September 1717. Newton was first appointed warden of the Mint in May 1696 rising to the position of Master following the death of Thomas Neale in December 1699. "Macaulay avers in his history that Newton - independently I suppose of his public action in reference to the Re-Coinage - has left no exposition of his opinions touching the currency. The eloquent historian thus leaves out of view the well-known report of 1717 upon which was based the reduction of the Guinea from 21 shillings and 6 pence to 21 shillings. It would seem then that the doctrinal importance of this Report had escaped recognition from the English historian though as I have had occasion to ascertain it was the subject of appreciative comment in France and Prussia more than a century ago. Indeed I read it first in a German translation printed at Berlin in 1762." Horton quoted in Gray. Foolscap folio 332 x 202 mm pp. 3. Docket title printed on final blank for folding.

Senex 1747. 1747. 2 volumes. 4to. 4 lxxv 1 475 1; ii 389 33 pp. Original full calf raised bands calf gilt-stamped red & brown spine labels; joints cracked. Small rubberstamp on title. Very good. NICE CLEAN COPY. Sixth edition "greatly improved by the author" of 'sGravedande's extensive experimentation and instruction in Newtonian physics. The experiments range from basic physics to hydraulics optics electricity and astronomy. The entire work is profusely illustrated with folding engraved plates detailing among many other experiments and apparatuses a steam-powered Hero's Engine plate 78 a static electricity generator plate 79 the first magic lantern slide projector plate 109 the prismatic effect of a rainbow plate 120 and the known solar system plate 122. 'sGravesande "is the author of Elements de physique demonstres mathematiquement. . . ou introduction a la philosophie Newtonienne which was translated from the Latin and published at Leyden in 1746. In the second volume he gives a description of an electrical machine constructed on the plan of that of Hauksbee. It consisted merely of a crystal globe which was mounted upon a copper stand and against which was pressed the hand of the operator while it was made to revolve rapidly by means of a large wheel." Mottelay. / Willem Jacob 'sGravesande was a Dutch philosopher and mathematician. Born in 's-Hertogenbosch he studied law in Leiden and wrote a thesis on suicide. In 1715 he visited London and King George I. He became a member of the Royal Society. In 1717 he became professor in physics and astronomy in Leiden and introduced the works of his friend Newton in the Netherlands. He was ardently opposed to fatalists like Hobbes and Spinoza. In 1724 Peter the Great offered him a job in Saint Petersburg but 'sGravesande did not accept. His best remembered work is Physices elementa mathematica experimentis confirmata sive introductio ad philosophiam Newtonianam or Mathematical Elements of Natural Philosophy Confirm'd by Experiments Leiden 1720 in which he laid the foundations for teaching Newtonian physics. / 'sGravesande's chief original contribution to physics involved an experiment in which brass balls are dropped with varying velocity onto a soft clay surface. This demonstrated that a ball with twice the velocity of another would leave an indentation four times as deep that three times the velocity yielded nine times the depth and so on. He shared these results with Emilie du Châtelet who subsequently corrected Newton's formula E = mv to E = mv2. / 'sGravesande was also the owner of the oldest known magic lantern which was built around 1720 by Jan van Musschenbroek and is currently housed at the Museum Booerhave in Leiden. / "From the outset of his teaching both physics and astronomy 'sGravesande modeled his lectures on the example of Newton in the Principia and Opticks although in later years they incorporated other influences especially that of Boerhaave. Moreover he adopted from Keill and Desaguliers the notion of demonstrating to his classes the experimental proof of scientific principles accumulating an ever larger collection of apparatus as may be seen from successive editions of his Physics elementa mathematica experimentis confirmata. Sive introductio ad philosophiam Newtonianam Leiden 1720 1721. The scientific reputation of 'sGravesande is enshrined in this book which he constantly corrected and amplified in later editions. An 'official' English translation prepared by Desaguliers to whom copies of the Latin original were sent in haste was also issued in 1720 and 1721 and it passed through six editions. The booksellers Mears and Woodward printed a rival version under the name of John Keill. French translations appeared only in 1746 and 1747 but a critical review by L. B. Castel was published in the Memoires de Trevoux in May and October 1721. The book was at once welcomed by British and a number of German scholars." – DSB V p. 510.

1968143730Berkeley: Berkley Graphics Arts 1968. 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. A few of these rear peel-off panels have come loose due to dryness but most are intact and the bumper stickers themselves are unaffected. Berkley Graphics Arts unknown books
