Title: The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Poems
Author: Yeats, W. B. [William Butler]
Seller: Burnside Rare Books, ABAA (United States)
Condition: Near Fine
Description: London: Kegan Paul, Trench & Co, 1889. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition, first printing. A family presentation copy signed by John Butler Yeats (the poet's father) on the fly-leaf and inscribed to Emily Thornley Stoker, her bookplate to front pastedown. vi, 156 pp. Bound in publisher's dark navy cloth lettered in gilt, black endpapers. Near Fine with light wear and moderate soiling to covers. Light toning and occasional thumbing to contents. Wade 2. The first edition of Yeats' first collection of poetry, drawn from Irish mythology and printed in a run of just 500 copies. This copy was gifted by Yeats' proud father to Emily Thornley Stoker, sister-in-law to Dracula author Bram Stoker. Emily's husband Sir William was a surgeon of great renown, serving at different times as President of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and President of the Royal Academy of Medicine. An obituary that appeared upon his death in 1912 noted his "quickness in appreciating and generosity in encouraging merit" in young men. It is not surprising to find Thornley Stoker's name linked with that of Ireland's greatest poet at the beginning of the young man's career.

Title: [Broadside for a Church Musical Performance]
Seller: Langdon Manor Books LLC (United States)
Condition: Good
Description: Xenia, Ohio: N. P., 1927. Good. 11" x 13¾". Broadside on thick card, printed recto only. Good: three heavy creases from vertical folds; two inch tear at center crease; moderate staining and discoloration at extremities. This is a broadside for a "Musicale" performance held in 1927 at the St. John's A. M. E. church in Xenia, Ohio. Professor William A. Sykes, pianist/organist, chorus director and head of the Conservatory of Music at Wilberforce University, served as accompanist for lyric tenor James S. Lucas and baritone Siljaum Earl Bauchamp (which was likely a typo for "Beauchamp"). Though the hometowns of the vocalists were listed on the broadside (New York City and Detroit, Michigan, respectively), Lucas and Beauchamp were soloists in the Wilberforce men's chorus. Professor Sykes had a long career in music education and performance, previously serving as Director of the Haven Conservatory of Music (part of an HBCU in Meridian, Mississippi) and as Music Director at Bennett College (an HBCU for women in Greensboro, North Carolina). This item was found among the papers of the Dickenson family of Xenia and Wilberforce, Ohio. This item is offered by Langdon Manor Books, LLC, antiquarian booksellers. We package our items carefully, ship daily, and have a no hassle returns policy--your satisfaction is guaranteed.
