About very good.
Description
Mexico City, 1870. About very good.. 479,[3]pp., plus two plates including frontispiece portrait. Contemporary half calf and pebbled cloth, spine gilt, boards blind stamped. Light wear to spine ends and bands, corners bumped. Contemporary binder's ink stamp on front pastedown; unobtrusive contemporary manuscript annotation on title page. Light tanning and foxing; a few leaves creased at upper corner. First Mexican edition of this important account of the last year of Maximilian I's reign in Mexico, composed by his personal physician. Samuel Sigfried Karl Basch, a Jewish doctor from Vienna, came to Mexico in 1864 to support the cause of Maximilian and was initially put in charge of a military hospital at Puebla. However, soon he found himself appointed personal physician to the emperor, and became a close confidant of Maximilian, He was a constant companion of the famously frail emperor and was with him until his execution, narrowly escaping death himself. The present work, synthesized from Basch's surviving notes and his recollections, was first published in Germany in 1868, and provides a detailed personal narrative of the last days of Maximilian. The obvious interest of this account to Mexican readers no doubt effected its translation into Spanish for this edition.

Description
S. l. (Washington, DC): N. Peters, Photo-lithographer, 1885. Good. Patent document, partially filled with manuscript notes; 11 1/2 x 7 1/2; off-white card stock - hand-colored engravings and manuscript notations to recto, specification to verso; two lower corners clipped, obscuring part of a penciled-in word; thin chip with small loss of paper to upper right corner; later typed label to upper left corner; a bit of smudging to margins; overall in good to very good condition. An interesting engineering piece, it was created by one Frederic Egner, a noted engineer from St Louis, MO, who had also worked for the People’s Gas Light and Coke Company in Chicago in the early 1880s, consulting, designing, and patenting several other apparatus - for water gas, etc. The current one appeared to have imroved and novel features. Illuminating gas, a mixture of combustible gasses, including methane, carbon oxide, and hydrogen, formed during thermal processing of coal, was widely used for gas lighting through the 19th- and early-20th centuries.

Description
Quarto, 2 pages, in very good, clean and legible condition. "Sir, My young Friend, Benjamin Cowell Jr. of Providence, R.I. is solicitous for an appointment in the S.S.E. [South Seas Exploring] Expedition. His Father. Judge Cowell informs me that his son is well acquainted with Natural History so far as it relates to Ornithology. Indeed I have in my possession a Specimen of his ingenuity and taste in this pursuit. He is a member of the N.E. [New England] Society of Natural History and as Assistant to the Professor of Natural History might make himself useful and possessing a happy equanimity of temper, he would not fail to render himself a very agreeable fellow Passenger." The irony of his letter is that the recipient, Andrew Jackson's Navy Secretary, had been the inveterate opponent of the plan, stalled for nearly ten years, to send a Naval expedition to explore the islands of the Pacific. Dickerson stalled so long in issuing sailing orders for the Expedition that in November 1837, six months after Governor Francis wrote this letter, the Commodore originally slated to command the flotilla, resigned. Not until President Martin Van Buren came into office the following year that in August 1838 the Expedition, soon to go down in American scientific history, finally set sail, commanded by Charles Wilkes, a mere Navy Lieutenant, accompanied by several officers with real scientific knowledge who resented his authority. It was typical of the earlier problems that beset the project that Francis thought a young man whose only claim to fame was being the son of a US District Court Judge might "make himself useful" on the Expedition. In fact, 19-year-old Benjamin Cowell, Jr., bird lover though might be, never put his Ornithological passions to professional use, though he did take several long sea voyages – as a 49er to California early in the Gold Rush, where he found his cousins (later notable benefactors of the University of California) getting rich in the Limestone business. On a later trip to San Francisco, the steamer on which Cowell was travelling was shipwrecked off the California coast. Maybe that was enough adventure for the Judge's son. He soon settled down in Peoria, Illinois, where he established a Homeopathic Pharmacy and remained for the rest of his life as a prosperous merchant.

Cheb, Czechoslovakia, 1920. Very Good. Cheb, Czechoslovakia: Es-Ka Bicycles, [ca. 1920]. Ephemeral poster stamp (13cm). Single thin sheet with shorn top edge; some toning to front and foxing to rear. Very Good or better. First called Elite, Es-Ka Bicycles was founded in Cheb, Czechoslovakia in 1911 by Ambros Swetlik and Heinrich Kastrup. Located in the far west of the country near the German border, Cheb was the center of a German-speaking region called Egerland. Though Es-Ka established Cheb a hub for bicycle manufacturing in the early twentieth century, the company halted production in 1941 when the city was seized by the German army. Cheb’s population remained overwhelmingly German until the end of World War II, when Czech resistance groups led a nationwide effort to expel ethnic Germans. The female subject of this advertising label wears traditional Czech folk clothing and poses with a low-slung woman’s bike frame.
