Title: Three Sonatas for the Piano Forte With an Accompanyment Obligato for a Violin Dédiées à Mademoiselle Marie Victoire Imbert Colomés de Lyon ... Opera XV. Price 10.6. [Score]
Author: CLEMENTI, Muzio 1752-1832
Seller: J & J Lubrano Music Antiquarians LLC (United States)
Description: London: Printed for the Author & to be had of him at No. 20, Goodge St. Tottenham Ct. Road, 1786. Oblong folio. Contemporary flexible marbled boards. 1f. (recto title, verso blank), 2-36 pp. Engraved throughout. Autograph signature of the composer ("M Clementi") to upper outer corner of title, with embossed stamp of Florentine bookseller Gonnelli. Wrappers worn, with minor loss of marbled paper; small label with No. [20] to lower inner margin of upper and small handstamp to recto of rear wrapper. Slightly worn; minor foxing to title; very occasional small stains, mainly to blank lower margin; some leaves reinforced with narrow strip of paper to inner margin; Clementi's signature significantly faded and nearly illegible. First Edition. Tyson p. 53. BUC p. 199. RISM C2851 (no copies in the U.S.). Clementi was an English composer, keyboard player and virtuoso, teacher, music publisher, entrepreneur, and piano manufacturer of Italian birth. ... "[His] influence on following generations of pianists and piano composers is hard to overestimate. Beethoven's earlier keyboard writing seems unmistakably indebted to his music of the 1780s and 1790s. Clementi was the principal teacher of several leading pianists of the 1820s and 1830s, and he had more informal contacts with many others during their formative years, for example Herz, Meyerbeer, Dussek, and perhaps Hummel. His didactic works, especially the Introduction to the Art of Playing on the Piano Forte, the op.36 sonatinas, and the Gradus ad Parnassum, became staples in the education of pianists at all levels. Thus in several ways he impressed his stamp on piano playing and writing from about 1790 until far into the 19th century. And increasing numbers of modern editions and recordings of his works made 20th-century musicians and audiences aware once more of his virtues as a composer." Leon Plantinga, revised by Luca Lévi Sala in Grove Music Online.

Title: PHANTASMION.
Author: Coleridge Sara
Seller: BATTLEDORE LTD (United States)
Description: [COLERIDGE, Sara]. PHANTASMION. London: William Pickering, 1837. 8vo, [iv], 387pp; publisher's green cloth with original printed paper label on upper spine (soiled, edges scuffed), small section cut out at top of half-title to excise name of previous owner. It is especially rare to still be in its publisher's binding and with its printed paper label. First edition. Limited to 250 copies. This is the major contribution by Samuel Coleridge's daughter and is a rare precursor of the journey-to-faeryland that characterized the structure and content of the quest motif in nineteenth and twentieth century fantastic literature. Besides the intricacies of plot, character, and genealogy, PHANTASMION has a theme in common with Tolkien's works: the virtues of pastoralism and the disruptive force of industrialism." - Survey of Modern Fantasy Literature III, pp. 1238-40. It appears to be modeled on Edmund Spenser's THE FAERIE QUEEN (1590; 1596), the "first fairy tale novel written in English." - Clute and Grant (eds), The Encyclopedia of Fantasy, p. 210. Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 2-28. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 391. Locke, A Spectrum of Fantasy, p. 55. Bleiler (1978), p. 46. Reginald 03174. Wolff 1316. Keynes, p. 60.

Title: American Federation of Labor Press Photo Archive Documenting Union Leadership and the Fight for Labor Representation from the Great Depression through World War II
Author: American Federation of Labor
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1924. AFL leadership press photo archive, documenting council meetings, conventions, White House visits, and interunion conferences by the American Federation of Labor, 1924-1943. William Green succeeded Samuel Gompers as AFL president in 1924 and led the federation through the Depression, the New Deal labor laws, and wartime price and wage disputes. The group documents the work of leaders including Green, George Meany, Matthew Woll, Frank Morrison, Anna Rosenberg, Philip Murray, Julius Emspak, and other labor figures inside hotel conference rooms, convention halls, and White House settings where union leaders negotiated federal access. Photo archive of 15 silver gelatin press photographs, approximately 7 x 9 to 8 x 10 inches, Washington, D.C., Atlantic City, Miami, Cincinnati, New Orleans, and New York, 1924-1943. AFL executive council members sit at long tables, pose on hotel terraces, stand outside the White House, and gather at convention sessions packed with delegates. All with original press captions affixed to versos identifying the events pictured, including the 44th annual summer conference at the Ambassador Hotel in Atlantic City, the 53rd annual AFL convention at the Willard Hotel in Washington on October 2, 1933, labor leaders calling on President Roosevelt on February 11, 1935, the "Build America" program submitted on March 9, 1938, and the April 1, 1943 meeting asking Roosevelt for labor representation in food administration and firm price ceilings. The National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933 gave unions new federal visibility through Section 7(a), which guaranteed workers the right to unionize, and the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 changed union organizing by creating enforceable collective bargaining rights. During the Depression, the AFL pressed for shorter hours, public works jobs, unemployment relief, and wage protection, while its building trades, teamsters, machinists, printers, hotel workers, and craft affiliates shaped hiring rules and bargaining terms across major American industries. During World War II, AFL leaders fought for labor seats in federal agencies overseeing manpower, prices, food, and production, linking union wages directly to national policy. Some mild wear with minor loss to two photograph along upper margins, residue and markings on verso; else in good condition.

Title: PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM, "English Celebrities of the Nineteenth Century." London, Hughes and Edmonds, 1876
Seller: Schulson Autographs (United States)
Description: Part I offered here includes five albumen prints mounted to boards, of "Orators, Statesmen, Authors, Novelists, Artists, Philosophers.".Each of the five mounted photographs is preceded by a protective sheet of tissue paper in tact though wrinkled. The five photographs show a group of luminaries in the following fields: "Politicians Conservative," "Politicians Liberal," "Authors and Novelists," including Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Thomas Carlyle, "Science," including Charles Wheatstone, Michael Faraday, "Artists" including J. M. W. Turner, John Everett Millais, and Edwin Landseer. The page preceding the last group photograph of English Artists indicated that a second volume was anticipated "early in 1877." The artists' page has separated from the spine as has the first copyright page which is chipped along margins, creased and missing upper left corner. The pages are securely held together at the spine even though they have lost their cover. The albumen plates are somewhat light as might be expected. Various degrees of foxing throughout, chipped corners of the photographic boards. Overall condition is fair to good. A fascinating assemblage of 19th century English culture.
