1930218619Japan. Circa 1930. 37 black and white photographs presented in an accordion album 26.5 x 19cm 20pp 2 loose black and white photographs 18.2 x 25.5cm 14.7 x 10.2cm some wear and a few photographs missing but the photographs are generally in good to very good condition. This family photograph album brings out various aspects of a military personnel in Japan. It starts with a letter written by a serviceman who was stationed in China to most likely the owner of this album Kusaka Tadao 日下忠夫 who lived in Wakayama Prefecture. The letter was written in pencil and is difficult to decipher. The pages of one side of the album are filled with the photographs of a wedding: bride and bridegroom attendees and the wedding venue. Probably the most interesting photographs are the four showing the interior of what appears to be the wedding location. The exterior photograph of the well-to-do house is accompanied by another showing beautiful Japanese garden. Following the wedding photographs are other family photographs which were taken at celebratory occasions such as starting military service or during the holidays and visits to temples and shrines. One group photograph was taken at Futamigaura near Ise Shrine. <br> <br>A primary school graduation photograph was taken to mark the graduation at Kane Ordinary Primary School 河根尋常小学校 in Ito County in Wakayama Prefecture near Koyasan. The photograph was taken by M. Okada Photographic Studio. It was a small class with a dozen pupils or so with teaching staff. A young woman who is sitting on the first row lower left has a distinctive hair style and it might indicate that the photograph was taken around the beginning of the 20th century. The owner's name Imoto Masako appears on reverse. A loose formal photographic portrait features a young non-commissioned officer of the Japanese Imperial Navy in his uniform and hat. The emblem shows of his military rank. . unknown

Depicted on the gold-decorated shield of the coat of arms are a cross bearing a single fleur-de-lis and lion heads in each quadrant.

In 1770 he married Mary née Rogers and had three children. In 1773 he was 25 when he participated in the Boston Tea Party and a small quantity of tea accidentally lodged in his boot. In the late 1770s he and his family moved north and were one of the founding settlers of Wardsboro where he died in 1842.†accessed online per “Wardsboro man honored as part of Boston Tea Party anniversary†and via Brattleboro Reformer.

16192607n.p. 1619. Early 17th-century account ledger of Giulio Cesare and Luco Spinola two brothers of the Genoese patrician family recording debts and credits over a period beginning in 1619 and ending in 1631. Information about individual debts is registered at the top of each page with ample blank space underneath for successive transactions relating to the debt. Other pages are filled with tables recording transactions in a given period of time pertaining to different debtors and creditors. Although the book was evidently begun in 1619 some of the entries record transactions dating back to 1599. The entries are written in a single neat hand which only occasionally turns into a hasty scrawl. Six loose leaves inserted into the pages contain records of transactions from 1599 to 1630. The brothers were evidently responsible for the finances of their mother Lamilla whose name appears frequently as well as their sisters. One of them Luiggia born Livia was in a convent while the other Benedetta had her dowry managed by her brother until her marriage to her cousin Paris Salvago. Reflecting the Spinola familys twin spheres of influence in Genoa and Naples both places appear in the transactions with somewhat more mentions of Naplesprobably an indication of the focus of Giulio Cesare and Lucos business interests and a plausible explanation for why their accounting ledger should be bound in such a splendid Spanish-Neapolitan binding. Folio manuscript 25 x 35 cm consisting of 119 numbered leaves and 70 blank leaves; 6 loose folded leaves. Contemporary black morocco wallet binding most likely Neapolitan or Spanish elaborately and densely tooled with original morocco reinforcements with decorative red stitching on lower edge i.e. spine; some minor worming and abrasion. Vellum title shows minor soiling and so do extremities of scattered leaves but generally in an excellent state of preservation. hardcover

From the Preface- "The title of this book comes from a remarkable experience in Mother's life. Shortly after she joined the Church in Sweden persecution began to run Rampant. Her brother introduced her to his friends as a harlot. Sentiment against her was at a high peak and widespread. She stood alone except for one girl friend who consented to sleep with her this night. It was a cold wintry night with several feet of snow on the ground. Suddenly footsteps came rushing up the stairway to her room the door flung open and there stood her brother Erland insane with anger. He pointed a pistol at her and with a demanding voice he said 'Deny your faith this minute or I will send a bullet through your heart.' She calmly replied 'You can take my life but never my faith.'
