Description
Bogota: Imprenta del Neo-granadino, 1855. Still very good.. 17pp. Original printed wrappers, stitched as issued. Mild dust soiling and dampstaining to wraps. Light biopredation at upper left corner and pin-sized wormhole at right margin, neither affecting text. Occasional faint foxing and minor soiling internally. A rare pamphlet that prints a plea for clemency by Pedro Neira Acevedo, a Colombian politician who was imprisoned for his role in the Golpe de Melo in 1854. In addition to his request for freedom, the pamphlet comprises a rumination on the current form of the government in Colombia and pleas for a return to non-military, non-dictatorial government. According to a footnote on the final page, Neira was freed and then reimprisoned between the writing and publication of this text. OCLC locates only one copy, at the National Library of Chile.

Description
Danville, 1915. First Edition. 13 ¼ x 8 ¾ inches. Mounted to cardstock with residue and affixed articles to cardstock verso. Date stamp of “Oct 24 1915” on lower margin. Peculiar ink inscription reads “Culprints Doc, Wedge and Shorty” at margin. Very Good. An early Chinese American restaurant menu from Danville, Illinois. The business is listed in the 1913 International Chinese Business Directory of the World, making the restaurant one of fewer than would exist when immigration laws changed in 1915 allowing restaurateurs to enter the United States on work visas. The menu features two sections, “American Style” and “Chinese Style,” with the latter section including dishes such as Chop Suey, Chicken Sum Soo, Noodles Wor, Canton Style Eggs, Fried Rice and a selection of teas. The existence of a separate American menu attests to the development of American Chinese food alongside American food, and the degree to which restaurants offered Chinese immigrants an opportunity to operate businesses for broader American clientele. We find records of the Mandarin Cafe’s existence into the 1940s.

New York: Organizatsiia Oborony Chotyrokh Svobid Ukrainy, 1957. Very good. Uniform edition (first published in 1921 in Vienna); 8 3/4 x 5 3/4; pp. [4], 5-210, [2]; burgundy leatherette over boards, with title embossed in gilt; minor rubbing to tips of spine and corners; very light wear to boards; very good or better condition. Dmytro Dontsov (1883 - 1973) was a Ukrainian author, journalist, and a radical political thinker with great influence over the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. Born in a Cossack officer's family, Dontsov joined the Ukrainian Social-Democratic Labor Party in 1905, was arrested shortly after for being an instigator in "Socialist politics," and was forced to move to Vienna in 1909. After the Revolution, he returned home and was appointed Head of Pavlo Skoropadsky's Government's official news agency. By 1922 Dmytro had rejected the Socialist ideas of his youth and had increasingly become immersed in radical Nationalism. In 1939, right before the takeover of Western Ukraine by the Soviets Dontsov fled his country for Bucharest, then Prague, Germany, Paris, and the United States until he finally settled in Toronto where he taught Ukrainian literature at Universite de Montreal. In his current work, among other things, Dontsov floated the idea of leaving Galicia to Poland, not because he particularly cared for the Poles, but because he was convinced that surrendering the land to Poland would strengthen its union with Ukraine against their mutual enemy, ie. Russia. He would eventually abandon the thought and would consider Poland an outpost of the Soviet Union.

Wiesbaden: Breitkopf & Härtel [PN 28147; Edition Breitkopf Nr. 5312], 1980. Quarto. Original publisher's light green printed wrappers. [4], 117 pp. Ex libris the pianist Mario Feninger (1923-2016), with his signature to blank upper margin of title. Sightly worn and browned; titling in manuscript to spine. Reissue of the first edition. Kindermann K. 270, p. 315. Arlecchino, in one act to Busoni's own libretto, premiered in Zürich at the Stadttheater on 11 May 1917. "Stylistically the score bridges the gap between Busoni's experimental pre-war compositions and the later works written in the spirit of 'Junge Klassizität'. ... The element of operatic parody in the score gives rise to all manner of quotations and allusions, from Gluck to Wagner, and bel canto to ragtime. These are unified through harmonic cunning and brilliant use of a modestly sized orchestra. Arlecchino's rhythmic speech (precisely notated but unpitched) etches his role against the musical background and stylizes him to an 'über-marionette' (to use Edward Gordon Craig's term), a comic mask whose counterpart is Faust, the tragic mask and Übermensch." Antony Beaumont in Grove Dictionary of Opera.
