Description
London: Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown, 1813. FIRST EDITION. Frontispiece portrait cut out and pasted onto a blank leaf opposite the title in Volume I. Contemporary (original?) calf-backed boards, spine labels; other than some minor spotting on the first few leaves in each volume, an excellent uncut copy from the libraries of William Greenwood and Dr. Herbert Silvette with their bookplates and Greenwood’s signature on the title to Volume I dated 1873. First edition of this collection of over 150 letters, most “from the collections of Hearne, Smith, and Ballard in the Bodleian Library. In addition to many curious anecdotes and remarks of a local nature ... they exhibit biographical sketches of persons contemporary with the writers, as well as notices of passing events, and of the general state of literature. The two journeys of Hearne are printed from his manuscript diaries in the Bodleian Library” (from the Advertisement). The second part of the second volume contains the first printing of John Aubrey’s Lives of eminent men; his detailed biographical sketches of many iconic personalities from the 16th and 17th centuries provided a significant source of personal information for future writers and historians.

Description
San Francisco: Rincon Publishing Company, 1910. Octavo, [6], 19-249, [13] pages. Advertisements. FIRST EDITION, likely second printing. This printing lacks the initial 13 pages of ads, but the pagination begins at "19" leading us to believe that this issue followed that with ads in the front. A collection of attributed recipes written in narrative format, assembled to raise funds for a club house. Includes household tips and a section on Lemon Remedies. Local advertisements precede, follow, and are interspersed throughout the recipes. Organized in 1898, San Francisco's Corona Club was a women's charitable and civic organization. At the time of this publication, the club's numbers were limited to two hundred women, but the limitation was later lifted. Sections, including Social Services, Book Review, Child Welfare, Dramatic, and Household Economics carried out a wide variety of activities, providing funds and support "to make this great city a better place in which to live". In soiled and slightly bumped, blue-titled white oilcloth. Tideline to the gutter at the bottom of text block, Some light foxing and edgewear throughout. Good. Manuscript recipes throughout, twenty-seven written on blanks and in margins, one laid in, one tipped-in, and one clipping laid in. [OCLC locates twelve copies; Brown 93; Cook, page 32].
