Title: Palmer's Pocket Scale, with Rules for its Use in Solving Arithmetical and Geometrical Problems
Author: Palmer, Aaron - COMPUTATION - INSTRUMENTS
Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books (United States)
Condition: Very good; some finger abrasion to the surface of moving dial around the silk "pull" - there is no loss of printed surface.
Description: Rochester: Aaron Palmer, 1845. First Edition.. Original publisher's cloth.. Very good; some finger abrasion to the surface of moving dial around the silk "pull" - there is no loss of printed surface.. 12mo, 48 pp. A movable circular slide rule (issued as an integral part of the book) is affixed to the rear pastedown. The first calculating rule of American design. A most unusual and ingenious calculating device published by Aaron Palmer who is best known for his large circular nomograph calculating boards. This pocket calculator, however, is based on two logarithmic scales laid out in a circular pattern. The scales rotate against one another and are affixed to a heavy card stock and mounted to the inside of the rear cover of the book; a metal pin flattened at the ends secures the rotating scale to the rear cover. The scales are printed on glazed paper and are in a very good state of preservation. The 45 pages of text consists of instructions in the use of the scales for practical arithmetic problems, e.g., areas, percents, arithmetic functions, business calculations of all kinds, complex geometric problems, weights and measure problems of a complicated nature, etc.. A remarkable instrument of historical importance. Cajori, p. 61; S & S #45-5052 - only the later Boston imprint; not in Karpinski. See Feazel, Journal of the Oughtred Society, Vol. 3, #1, March 1994, pp. 9-12,

Title: Les Aventures de Miss Liberty (3 Volumes, All Published)
Author: LAGARRIGUE, Jean
Seller: Harper's Books (United States)
Condition: Minor scuffing to illustrated self-wrappers; near fine. Scarce, with only two records located in OCLC worldwide; both incomplete
Description: Paris: Editions de Lion Jérôme, 1974. Minor scuffing to illustrated self-wrappers; near fine. Scarce, with only two records located in OCLC worldwide; both incomplete.. First Editions. Quarto. A three volume underground comic from Jean Lagarrigue, in which the Statue of Liberty leaves her station—aroused by young lovers and beckoned up the East River by saxophone strains—only to be pursued by Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger from their command center in the sixth wing of the Pentagon. The final issue hints at an unrealized vignette, where Lady Liberty would take-on the mysterious Ku-Klux-Kola.
