19212571Philadelphia: Racego Game Company 1921. Good in a Poor box. Box: 9-3/4 x 12 inches. Game includes: linen board printed in green yellow black and red 26-1/2 x 26-3/4 inches when unfolded; 4pp set of directions for play printed in black on cream paper; six metal playing pieces in the shape of jockeys riding horses painted black or brown numbered consecutively and housed in a cardboard holder with individual "stalls" for the pieces; cardboard box containing 60 flat circular red white and blue bone betting counters.Based on a description of Go! in a 1922 ad in Modern Stationer this copy of the game is lacking 40 betting counters but is otherwise complete. Heavy wear to box with splitting to all edges and numerous neat black tape repairs; apron missing from one side of the lid and the lid is now taped to the base at that edge so it opens like a hinge. Light wear to directions; some scuffing to playing pieces. Scarce horse racing-themed board game that capitalizes on the popularity of the sport in the 1920s with pieces named Man o' War Sir Barton Behave Yourself Broomspun Gray Lag and Audacious -- all famous racing horses of the era. Using an ordinary deck of cards not included players move the pieces around the board in such a way that "the horses speed up or drop back pass each other and fight for the 'pole' and inside positions just as the live ones do on the track" Directions p.2. Meanwhile the players place wagers on the winners colors and time using white red or blue betting counters to indicate the amount of their wager.Racego Game Company may have been formed solely to sell this game as we find no record of other games associated with it and advertisements for the game only in 1922. The copyright holder James B. Ludlow appears to have been a Philadelphia salesman at the time; census records indicate that he sold a variety of goods but in 1920 was engaged in selling rubber tires.Not located in OCLC although we know of one holding at UVA.

18975Four of Hair's letters from between 1848 and 1852 the other two undated; four from 51 Portland Place and two from the Junior United Services Club. Printed circular from the United Services Club 22 May 1849. ONE: Hair's six letters to 'My Dear Sir John Phillipart' editor of the Naval and Military Gazette. One of the letters has 'Sir John Phillipart' named as the addressee. In fair condition lightly aged and worn. The five complete letters total 15pp. 12mo. Only the first part of the incomplete letter is present and it is 4pp. 4to on a bifolium. The letters mostly concern the Duke of Richmond and Hair's position within the Duke's household is described in his obituary in the Dumfries Courier reprinted in the Glasgow Daily Herald 22 December 1869: 'After his retirement from the army in 1843 Dr Hair became a resident in the family of his attached friend the late Duke of Richmond acting as the Duke's medical attendant and confidential adviser. About three years ago while still in good health but urged by the infirmities of age he retired from the position he had so long occupied in the Richmond family – by all members of which he was very cordially and affectionately esteemed – to his own residence in his native town of Sanquhar'. In the first dated letter 10 June 1848 Hair expresses a desire to put himself 'in a Piccadilly Bus' and visit Phillipart at College House in order to 'talk matters over'. He also refers to Lord Londonderry's 'most disgusting' conduct in the House of Lords described to him over breakfast that morning by the Duke. On 23 July 1851 Hair expresses his regret that Lord Salisbury has not 'at once met your offer of your Services for the Commission of the Peace; - but it appears to me that he evidently will do so'. On 3 March 1852 he states that he has handed Phillipart's letter to the Duke that morning and quotes his response: 'If I recollect right – when I spoke to Lord Salisbury – His Lordship had some objections not only to increasing the Number of Magistrates but also to that of the Division or Benches; - However tell Sir John that as I am likely to meet Lord Salisbury very soon I will take the first opportunity of again speaking to Him not only on the subject of the Magistracy but also on tat of the Deputy Lieutenancy.' In one of the undated letters Hair reminds Phillipart that the Duke will be 'more than occupied with the Duties devolving on him as President of the Great Cattle Show of the Royal Agricultural Society of England'. He ends the letter with an appeal for Phillipart's 'Kind Assistance in the Way of Money from 8 or 900 friends of the War Medal whose names do not as yet grace the Subscription List'. The other undated letter is the incomplete one and it describes the War Medal Testimonial dinner given in honour of the Duke. In it Hair writes that having been at Goodwood he has since 'passed a Considerable portion of Thursday with our mutual friend Capt. Scott'. - Preparatory to his giving you tomorrow afternoon or evening the results of our this day's Concoction on all matters connected with our really brilliant and most enthusiastic Dinner Party of last Saturday. We talked every thing over and over again and agreed in all that he was to lay before you for the Naval and Military Gazette of next Saturday … the Duke and Duchess are more delighted – more gratified – than any language can express. - His Grace said it certainly was the proudest day of his life and while life remains in him his gratitude would know no bounds. - To see upwards of 200 Warriors of both Services from all quarters of the United Kingdom gathered together to do homage to Him was almost more than manly courage and fortitude of the highest order could bear without being moved. The Duchess – being in the Gallery – on Lord Salisbury's proposing the Duke's health together with the enthusiastic burst of Applause which instantly followed was I am given to understand fairly & completely upset.' The Duke has gone to Goodwood but is anxious that his speech praising members of the armed forces 'should be detailed & done justice to all the Reporters having left when the Toast was given'. The Duke 'intended to devote part of the day to putting the leading features of it on paper' and 'promised to Scott to send it to his Lodgings in Brompton tomorrow morning the moment it comes into my hands'. He is glad Phillipart intends to do something 'to induce those Recipients whose addresses we have not been able to procure and who have not yet subscribed to come forward with their Subscriptions – of this Class there are still at least from 8 to 9 Hundred or more. The letter ends with promise of an anecdote regarding the Duke's treatment of '2 or 3 Blind Veterans' at the dinner. TWO: Printed circular. 3pp. 4to. Bifolium. With two closed tears otherwise in fair condition on lightly aged paper. First page carries a letter from Honorary Secretaries Captain John Robb and Major J. H. Cooke regarding the 'desire … generally expressed by the recipients of the War Medal to present to the DUKE OF RICHMOND some Testimonial to mark their sense of gratitude for the unwearied zeal perseverance and ability with which his GRACE devoted his energies to their service and brought their claims to a successful issue'. On the second page and the top part of the third page is a long list of the 'Members forming the General Committee' and its sub-committees in London Edinburgh and Dublin. The remaining part of the third page reproduces propositions made at the meeting by seven individuals beginning with Rear-Admiral Sir William Henry Dillon. No other copy traced on COPAC.

2007x-0759110948Altamira Pr 2007. Hardcover. New. 322 pages. 9.25x6.00x1.00 inches. Altamira Pr hardcover
First edition, 8vo (215 x 140 mm), [4], viii, 77, [1], 4, 10pp., including two addenda, 'Hydrophobic Syringe' & 'Horse Provender', half-title, one engraved plate 'Hydrophobic Injection', recent morocco-backed patterned paper boards, spine gilt lettered direct. Henry Sully was surgeon to Wiveliscombe Infirmiary and to the Duke of Cumberland. This work records a number of local rabies cases and repeats directions given earlier by Somerset doctors that the effects of rabies can be prevented if the saliva is wiped away and the bite thoroughly washed. Washing the wound with antiseptic is still the first treatment for rabies. The understanding of rabies did not progress until Louis Pasteur published 'Sur la Rage' in 1881. The article on Horse Provender is about Sully's system for feeding horse chaff via a chute from a loft above the stable.
