Title: [Title in Greek, then]: NOVUM TESTAMENTUM
Author: (BINDINGS - SCHOOLROOM CLOTH, 18TH CENTURY). BIBLE IN GREEK
Seller: Phillip J. Pirages Fine Books and Medieval Manuscripts (United States)
Description: London: Excudebant A. Rivington & J. Marshall: Impensis J. F. & C. Rivington, T. Longman, & T. Cadell, 1786. 175 x 105 mm. (7 x 4 1/4"). 368 pp., [1] leaf (ads). Contemporary brown "school cloth" (rough linen), raised bands. Front flyleaf with owner inscription of John Cutler, dated Sept 21, [17]89, four lines of Latin doggerel threatening anyone who steals the book with hanging, and two large copperplate trials of Cutler's signature. ESTC N63834. Not in Darlow & Moule. A little fraying at top and bottom of joints, light foxing and toning throughout (due to paper quality), a couple of small ink stains, but a surprisingly appealing copy, the text extremely clean, and the unsophisticated makeshift binding--remarkably--with no significant wear. This is an almost startling survival: an 18th century New Testament in Greek, in its original utilitarian binding, preserved in condition far better than what could be anticipated, given the audience of generally uncareful pupils for which it was intended. Considering the usual depredations of school children, the rough school cloth should have been worn to shreds long ago, but, against the odds, it has fortuitously escaped hard use and now gives us a glimpse of an important element of the English schoolroom very close to its original condition. One particularly delightful aspect of our copy is the flamboyant declaration of ownership by a pupil called John Cutter, who inked his name no fewer than four times in different styles and with calligraphic flourishes across the flyleaf. Cutter's neatly penned book curse, threating any would-be thieves with hanging, may have helped to preserve the book as it now exists. In fact, there are few signs of use by any owner, rightful or unlawful. The leaves are free from any markings, and the insubstantial binding appears to have rarely left the shelf..

Condition: Fine
Description: Tucson, Arizona: The University of Arizona Press, 1972 Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. First edition. Edited by Eve Ball. Octavo. 9¼ x 6 inches. vi, [2], 336pp. 7 illustrations from photographs. Index. Brick cloth lettered in gilt. A fine copy in pictorial dust jacket. Jacket with the slightest of wear along top edge. Becoming quite scarce. Lily Klasner grew up alongside outlaws and Indians and could hold her own among them. She took leadership of the family when she was only 13 years old, after her father was murdered. She became a great rider, shooter, and could handle any "man's job" In later years she became a school teacher and telegrapher. She kept a meticulous diary, aided with newspaper clippings, letters, photographs, and documents, and created an autobiographical manuscript of her experiences as a woman in the West. This manuscript was discovered in an old trunk in an abandoned house in 1968, and author Eve Ball undertook the task of editing and annotating this manuscript, resulting in this book. Also includes the personal diary of John Chisum "Cattle King of the Pecos", who was an intimate friend and counselor of Klasner and her family. .

Title: Mormondom - A Fresh Supply of Wives - Going Out To The Settlements
Author: Tavernier, Jules and Paul Frenzeny
Seller: Tschanz Rare Books (United States)
Description: New York: Harper's Weekly, 1875. Single trimmed news sheet [26.5 cm x 36 cm] with wood engraving. Very good. Unrelated text to reverse. "As interest in Utah, California, and other parts of the West mounted, Harper's commissioned two French artists, Paul Frenzeny and Jules Tavernier, to make detailed sketches of a transcontinental expedition beginning in 1873. Their woodcuts can be found sprinkled throughout the pages of Harper's from 1873-75, long after the completion of their assignment. Resembling Joseph Becker's earlier work for their competitor in terms of neutrality of tone, the illustrations were not nearly as callous as the accompanying text." - pp. 41-42 'The Mormon Graphic Image, 1834-1914.'.
