188888405Fall River: Earl & Bamford / George E. Bamford 1888-1904. Six original biennial issues in original wrappers comprising the 11th 12th 14th 15th 16th and 20th editions. Issue for 1888 in glazed printed wrappers 13cm x 8.5cm; remaining issues in uncoated wrappers 14.5cm x 8cm; contents range from 56pp to 72pp. A few with slight discoloration and/or wear to wrappers but all complete sound and unmarked; Very Good overall. <br /> <br /> A collection of six successive issues of this biennial prospectus and directory for the mill city of Fall River Massachusetts intended to advertise the prospects for residency and industry in what was at the time the fastest-growing industrial city in New England known particularly for its output of printed cotton cloth. Each issue includes an updated list of operating textile mills together with a wealth of statistical data including annual yardage produced number of workers employed city population etc. Though clearly written from the manufacturers' perspective these small publications taken together provide valuable background for understanding the social milieu of a late-19th century mill town painting a clear picture of the city's rapid growth from 1.8 million spindles in 1888 to nearly 4 million in 1910 and the enormous wealth produced for mill owners during this period from $18M in capital stock to $34M in the same period - wealth that most certainly did not filter down to a workforce comprised mainly of immigrant millworkers many of whom were children under the age of twelve.

19866154Sacramento: Art 38 Historic Press Class American River College 1986. 26x18cm 15ff. printed recto only. Illustrations. Floral corded fabric over boards with purple illustrated endpapers. Some rubbing to cloth at extremities nearly fine. <br /> <br /> A beautiful compilation of fine printing from students in American River College's Historic Press class 1986. Printers include Dianna Woods E. R. Callison Vince Lozito Fred Gunsky John White and instructor Jean Pratt. The projects were all printed on a Filcher-Brannan Adams Acorn Press Ca. 1843 and vary from a diagram of the press to an alphabet to a quote from Douglas C. McMurtrie to a printed tuit by Professor Pratt. Perhaps a unique specimen and certainly remarkable as a completely handmade object. Art 38 Historic Press Class, American River College unknown

202011338Le Bal Toluca Editions R.M. 2020 2020. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Le Bal Toluca Editions R.M. 2020. Hardcover with tipped-in images to front and rear covers. First Edition First Printing. Limited edition of only 100 SIGNED and individually numbered copies with this being #98/100. 10 x 8 inches. 120 pages with numerous black and white and color photographic images throughout with and an essay in French and English by Jean-Pierre Criqui. SIGNED by Miguel Rio Branco on the numered adhesive attached to the rear paste down. BOOK CONDITION: Fine; a solid tight clean copy showing light rubbing and soilint to covers <br> <br> Miguel Rio Branco's photography captures bodies men or women often in tight framing where the background loses all depth. "Photography most often oppresses or suffocates reality" says the artist. By getting close his images take on a dreamlike quality without shying away from the grotesque which overflows or is provoked by them like in the later works of Goya. People have described Miguel Rio Branco's work as 'exorbitant realism' wherein disaster draws the eye into a vision of what appears dreamlike or imaginary yet ultimately has no other outlet than a final recourse back towards reality.
