Description
Fort Sill, I.T.: W.S. Soule, 1874. Very good.. Sepia-toned carte-de-visite photograph, 3.75 x 2.25 inches, on a slightly larger mount with studio imprint on verso. Minor dust-soiling and surface wear. An excellent studio portrait of a "Comanche Woman," identified as such through a manuscript caption on the verso. Another contemporary manuscript caption is written on the back in French: "Femme de la triba des Commanche rouge comme des briques de figure." This translates roughly to "Comanche woman with face as red as bricks." The image comes from the famous series of portraits made at Fort Sill by noted western photographer William S. Soule. His studio imprint on the verso reads: "W.S. Soule, Fort Sill, Indian Territory. Photographs of Indian Celebrities, Stereoscopic Views, Etc." The present photograph is a powerful portrait of a Comanche woman, capturing her in a moment of stillness that reflects the resilience and dignity of Native American culture during a period of profound change and cultural upheaval for Plains Indians. According to the noted book-length study of Soule by Russell E. Belous and Robert A. Weinstein: "For 150 years, since they had first come down from the north, at first alone and later with the aid of their Kiowa allies, the Comanche had been the lords of the Southern Plains. They had fought the Texans, made off with their cattle, burned their homes, and effectively made their own lands unsafe for the white intruder. They had fought and beaten the Ute, Pawnee, Osage, Apache, and Navajo." But by 1874, "the Comanche were finally beaten; they were placed in a concentration camp, and once a day a wagon pulled up by the walls and hunks of raw meat were pitched over the fence…. The cultural change demanded of the Comanche was too rapid and too great for simple adjustment." The present photograph does not appear in Belous & Weinstein. William S. Soule (1836-1908) began his career in photography after being discharged from the Union army due to a severe wound suffered at Antietam. His poor health left him with few options for a career, but after a short apprenticeship in a photo studio in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, Soule was determined to make it as a photographer. He could have joined his brother, John, already installed as a photographer in Boston, but a doctor suggested William go west for his health. After a short few years at Fort Dodge, Kansas, Soule arrived at Fort Sill as late as early 1870, though he may have made a brief visit in the fall of 1869. He remained until 1874, taking pictures of numerous Indian captives, army life, and local scenery. Sometime in 1873, John Soule copyrighted a selection of the Fort Sill images on his brother's behalf. William Soule returned to Boston in 1875, established a studio, and offered prints of his "Indian celebrities" for sale.

Description
Paris: chez Gersaint et chez Surugue, 1747. Engraving, printed on laid paper. Very good condition with the exception of some repair in the bottom right hand corner of sheet. Image size: 13 7/8 x 19 inches. A charming arabesque depicting a group of children playfully engaged in an argument, from Moyreau's "Oeuvres Des Estampes Gravées d'après Les Tableaux & Desseins de feu Antoine Watteau." Born in Valenciennes in 1684, the versatile artist Jean-Antoine Watteau was primarily renowned for his fête galante paintings depicting aristocratic men and women amorously conversing in the outdoors. Following a brief apprenticeship to the local painter Jacques-Albert Gérin, Watteau moved to Paris in 1702 where he later studied with Claude Gillot, scene painter for the comédie italienne, who introduced him to the commedia dell'arte, which later became a recurrent theme in his work. In 1708, he began to work with the decorator Claude Audran, under whose tutelage he produced several innovative ornamental decorations that were for porcelain, furniture, and textiles. Watteau was also a prolific draughtsman and his varied and substantial oeuvre includes military, genre, religious, mythological, and theatrical scenes as well as tapestry cartoons. After Watteau's death in 1721, his friend Jean de Jullienne commissioned a comprehensive body of engravings after the artist's drawings and paintings, which further solidified his reputation as one of the most influential and prominent artists of the Rococo period. Cf. Benezit, Dictionnaire des Peintres, Sculpteurs, Dessinateurs, et Graveurs, vol 14, p. 473-6; cf. Dacier & Vuaflart Jean de Jullienne et Les Graveurs de Watteau au XVIIIeime Siècle, 119.

Boston: Fields, Osgood, & Co, 1870. Octavo. (7 1/16 x 4 1/2 inches). iv, [4], 256pp. Green cloth, brown endpapers, blind stamped, gilt lettering, spine worn. First edition, second issue with the inclusion of "Brown of Calaveras." A landmark of California literature. Francis Bret Harte was an American short story writer and poet, best remembered for his short fiction featuring miners, gamblers, and other romantic figures of the California Gold Rush, though he died in Europe. The Luck of Roaring Camp and Other Sketches is a collection of short stories and essays. The short story it is named after tells about the life of a baby boy born in a 19th-century gold prospecting camp. When the boy's mother dies in childbirth, the men of Roaring Camp must raise the boy as their own, which brings them new responsibilities and changed attitudes. It was the first of Harte's stories to gain national attention. This compilation was published at around the same time as Harte's poem "The Heathen Chinee," resulting in Harte's popularity to doubly increase in a short amount of time. Subsequently, the publisher, James Thomas Fields, offered Harte a $10,000 exclusive contract to contribute to The Atlantic Monthly. However, only a couple of years later, Harte's popularity had severely declined, and he was left to be a struggling writer for the remainder of his life.

Description
Mobile, Alabama, 1833. Single one-page letter measuring 9 x 11 inches. Folded with small tears at folds, large hole at seal intersecting with text; excellent.. J. B. Toulmin is likely John Butler Toulmin (1788–1860), a merchant in Mobile, Alabama, and the son of dissenting minister Rev. Joshua Toulmin of Taunton, England. Toulmin’s brother was Harry Toulmin, a Unitarian minister and Kentucky politician. Interestingly, J. B. Toulmin’s will freed his enslaved people and had them sent to “Jamaica, Libera, or California”.[1] He writes here to Philo Strong Shelton (1805–1877), a Boston merchant, concerning the cotton market. He reports that the market is “Rather dull” though with “prices gradually hardning”; a decline reported by a steamer from Liverpool “had no effect here”. However, the port at Mobile took in 36,000 fewer bales of cotton than the previous week because of flooding that “prevented the hauling of cotton to the landings”. At the time, the cotton market was taking off—technological innovations including the cotton gin would solidify the American south’s slave economy.

Description
Franklin Center, PA: Franklin Library. As New. 1992. First Edition; First Printing. Full-Leather. A special Limited first edition preceding the trade edition, SIGNED by AUTHOR John Updike. This book has never been read and is in As New condition, never taken out of its original shrink-wrap; When junior college professor Alfred Clayton is asked to record his impressions of the Ford Administration, he recalls a turbulent piece of personal history as well. In a decade of sexual liberation, Clayton was facing a doomed marriage and the passionate beginnings of a futile affair with an unattainable Perfect Wife. But one memory begets another: Clayton's unfinished book on James Buchanan. In John Updike's fifteenth novel, he masterfully alternates between two men, two lives, two American centuries -- one Victorian, the other modern -- shining an irreverent, witty, and sometimes caustic light on the contrasting views of social fictions and sexual politics. This outstanding book is bound in genuine leather and features gilded, sewn in pages and ribbon marker, simply superb quality, Franklin Library at its best; 8vo; [xiv], 369, [3] pages; Signed by Author .
