Description
Osburn, Id, 1930. Very good.. Folding map, 27 x 42 inches. A couple of short separations along folds. Several contemporary pencil manuscript annotations. Light tanning and dust soiling. Scarce map of tunnels and several surface constructions related to the Mineral Point mine in Osburn, Idaho, operated by the Coeur D'Alene Mines Corporation. The map dates to 1930, and illustrates the tunnel system and existing surface structures of the mine, colored in several different shades. The Coeur D'Alene Corporation was organized in 1928, and still exists today as the global corporation Coeur Mining, although it divested of its mining interests located near its namesake city in the early 2000s. This map therefore constitutes an important record of one of its earliest mining efforts.

Description
Irvington, Ca: May, 1941. Very good.. [6],150pp. Original wooden boards decoratively illustrated and lettered in green, gray, and black paint on the front board, reading, "Recipes Irvington P.T.A." and bound by three separate rings. Text uniformly toned, with several leaves detached but present, a few with minor chipping. An exceedingly rare DIY cookbook produced by the Irvington Parent-Teachers Association just before the outbreak of World War II. The recipes were compiled by Irma T. Bond, "not for culinary instruction, as is the case for most cook books - but for the purpose of permitting members to exchange their favorite recipes." The contents page lists the recipes in roughly alphabetical order, beginning with Appetizers, Bread, Crepe Suzette, and Cakes, and ending with Salads, Soups, Vegetables, and then "How to Cook a Husband," "Household Hints," and "Quantity Cooking." Each of the recipes, generally presented two per page, includes the name of its contributor. OCLC records just a single copy of this ephemeral, pre-war, school-related cook book, at UCLA.

During an eventful season at Bath, young, naive Catherine Morland experiences the joys of fashionable society for the first time. She is delighted with her new acquaintances: flirtatious Isabella, who shares Catherine's love of Gothic romance and horror, and sophisticated Henry and Eleanor Tilney, who invite her to their father's mysterious house, Northanger Abbey. There, her imagination influenced by novels of sensation and intrigue, Catherine imagines terrible crimes committed by General Tilney. With its broad comedy and irrepressible heroine, this is the most youthful and and optimistic of Jane Austen's works.
