Description
19. THE SURPRISE MAGIC DRAWING BOOK. New York: Sam'l Gabriel Sons & Company, [n.d., circa 1910-1920]. According to a publisher's note on the verso of the title-page, this is one of thirteen magic drawing book titles to be published (publisher's book no. 841). It contains forty leaves which are lightly coated with wax, except for uncoated areas which comprise the lines of a hidden drawing. The drawing is "magically' revealed when a crayon or pencil is rubbed over the surface and colors the uncoated area. Many of the pages have been colored or partially colored, revealing images of anthropmorphized pigs and cats (flying a bi-plane, fishing, etc.), plump toddlers playing with puppies or crying over spilt milk, and young children playing games, such as football and baseball. The book is side-stapled within stiff paper wrappers, with a color illustration printed to the upper wrapper, and a blue cloth spine. Housed in the original publisher's box, with the cover illustration printed again to the lid, along with the original wax crayon. The book is bright and fresh, despite light creasing to upper wrapper. The box is a bit edgeworn, split at a few corners, and heavily soiled at one edge.

Oakland: Biobooks, 1946 Book. Fine. Hardcover. Foreword by Joseph A. Sullivan. Small quarto. 10 x 7 inches. 205pp. Folding facsimile broadside, facsimiles of 2 newspapers in rear pocket. Gilt-lettered red and black cloth. A fine copy. Reprint of the rare 1857 first edition. One of 675 copies. While the colophon indicates that the book is supposed to be hand-numbered and signed by the editor, this copy is lacking both. Narrative of one who was persecuted by the Vigilantes of 1856. This work provides an unusual view of the Vigilance Committee. McGowan, a justice of the peace and ex-convict from Pennsylvania, was accused of complicity in the murder of James King of William. He absconded, and published this narrative to vindicate his conduct. Graff remarks that McGowan was, "a prime rascal, one of the truly colorful characters in California." [Howes I: M-103; Howes II: M-104; Wheat: 132n]. .
