Description: London: G. Smeeton, [1813]. The History of the Manners and Customs of the Cossacks With a Hand Colored Frontispiece and a Portrait of Count Platoff by George Cruikshank Albert M. Cohn's Copy [CRUIKSHANK, George, illustrator]. The History of the Manners and Customs of the Cossacks; Describing their habitations; singular mode of fighting; Religion; Customs; ... Also, the life of the brave Hettman of the Cossacks, Count Platoff... London, G. Smeeton, [1813]. Sixth edition with considerable additions... [together with] A Description of the Defeat of the French Army, under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte, by the Allied Armies, Commanded by Field Marshal His Grace The Duke of Wellington, and Field Marshal Prince Blucher, in front of Waterloo, on the 18th of June 1815... In Barker's Panorama [J. Adlard, Printer], 1816. Octavo (8 1/4 x 5 inches; 209 x 127 mm.). [1-4], 5-20; [1-3], 4-12 pp. The first title with a hand colored frontispiece by George Cruikshank "The Cossacks attacking the French Army under Murat" (signed in pencil by George Cruikshank? in lower left-hand corner)and a full-page woodcut portrait of Count Platoff on page [14], both unsigned. Disbound, housed in [Albert Cohn's] tan paper folder with the original catalog description from the 1942 Parke-Bernet auction pasted to inside of folder. (folder flap neatly repaired). The publication, which bears at the top of the title the mention Sixth edition, with considerable additions, is not dated. However, the publisher George Smeeton's address is 139 St. Martin's Lane (he moved to 17 St. Martin's Lane in 1814) and the text refers to events in the year 1813, allowing it to be dated precisely. A famous Cossack horseman, Count Platov (1751-1818) was one of the fiercest opponents of the Napoleonic army in Russia. He occupied Paris with his troops in 1814: there is no doubt that if the pamphlet had been published after that date, the British publisher would have announced the news with delight... Extremely rare: OCLC/KVK locate just one copy of the first title (dated 1815) in libraries and institutions worldwide: Brown University (RI, US) and just four copies of the second title: Florida State University (FL, US); DePaul University (IL, US); Johns Hopkins University (MD, US) and The University of Glasgow (UK). Provenance: Parke-Bernet Galleries NY, April 22/23, 1942 (Albert M. Cohn's copy). The only copy located in auction records over the past one hundred years. Cohn, 391.

Title: Scotsman's Dream.
Author: Berry, Warner Bott
Seller: Michael R. Thompson, Booksellers, ABAA/ILAB (United States)
Description: San Francisco: Privately Printed, 2002 One of an edition of 1,000 copies. Designed and produced under the direction of Andrew Hoyem with the assistance of Blake Riley at the Arion Press in San Francisco. Signed and numbered in green ink on the colophon by the author. Green, black, and yellow plaid cloth. . Large octavo. Frontispiece by Andrew Berry; eighteen golf hole drawings by Christopher Monti and Andrew Berry; Front end papers illustrated with MacKenzie Map by Christopher Monti; Rear endpaper illustrated with Golf Course Map by Darryl T. Roberson and Christopher Monti. Initial letters. A fine copy in a lightly rubbed green cloth slipcase with a printed paper spine label. Berry's Scotsman's Dream is a work of fiction set initially in 1933. A general synopsis is as follows: three men, A.W. Tillinghast, Alister MacKenzie, and Donald Ross, considered to be the three greatest golf course architects in history, agree to design a golf course for the future, which will be revealed and made public in the year 2000; the golf course they jointly created will then be built and opened for play. They proceed to spend a week on the land, which Tillinghast claims is "the most perfect place I have ever seen for a golf course." It is, in actuality, a farm overlooking Cayuga Lake, near Ithaca, New York, in the fabled Finger Lakes region.

Title: Habit-Forming Agents: Their Indiscriminate Sale and Use a Menace to the Public Welfare. U.S. [at head of title] Department of Agriculture Farmers' Bulletin 393
Author: [Narcotics] Kebler, L.F. [Lyman Frederick Kebler]
Seller: Rabelais - Fine Books on Food & Drink (United States)
Description: Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1910. Booklet, stapled in wrappers (23 x 15 cm.), 19 pages. Photographic illustrations in text (halftones). FIRST EDITION. An exposé, targeted to residents of rural districts, of narcotic agents in patent remedies and soft drinks, as well as the illicit trade in morphine and other drugs. Illustrations depict numerous commercially available (and perfectly legal) preparations containing morphine and coca-leaf extracts, Coca-Cola prominent among them (Coca Cola did not become entirely cocaine-free until 1929). The author, Lyman Frederick Kebler (1863-1955), was an American chemist, physician, and writer. He "administrated the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 and was involved with uncovering counterfeit drugs. His office managed all chemists whose task was to determine the boundary between drugs and food, for which different criteria were enforced. By 1908 the Drug Laboratory was divided into four laboratories and was renamed the Drug Division. Kebler became Director of the Drug Division... Kebler became known as a 'foe to fakers' for his research on exposing fraudulent medical scheme" (Wikipedia). Fine in wrappers. Fairly well represented in institutional collections, but uncommon in commerce.
