Description
New York: John Anderson, Jr., 1900. 9 volumes, 8vo; vols. I-V with frontispieces and tissue guards; facsimiles of the title-pages of books offered for sale; original printed pictorial wrappers; wrappers fragile with some chips at spines and edges, else a very good set. McKee (1840-1899) began his collection by focusing on books, journals, photographs and playbills related to the British and American stage and eventually expanded his interests to include English and American literature and American history. The sale of McKee's library was a great success for the fledgling Anderson Auction Company with "books that might have sold for only ten cents [reaching] forty or fifty cents." Poe's Tamerlane commanded $2,050, the highest price of the sale and a record for the book. Dickinson, Dictionary of American Book Collectors, p. 227.

Description
New York City, 1959. Single leaf measuring 8 ½ x 11, with text on both sides. Near Fine condition with light normal wear and toning at edges.. A membership flyer printed in April of 1958 published as part of a fundraising drive around the Little Rock Nine. The NAACP was actively fundraising in 1958 to raise money for legal costs in the face of state-led actions in the south attempting to ban the organization. The risk of membership lists from the south being published made the growth of membership in the northern and western US of paramount importance for the organization. The flyer offers several reasons to join on the verso, including the abolition of Jim Crow, wiping out the ghetto, equal justice under the laws and an end to police brutality.
