Description
Berlin - Peterburg (Berlin - St. Petersburg): Izd-Stvo Z. I. Grzhebina, 1923. First Thus. Very good. First edition thus; 5 3/4 x 4; pp. [5], 8-130; textured beige wraps; title and vignette in gilt; small nicks to corners and tips of spine and a bit of wear to edges; text block pulling slightly at hinges; numerous illustrations by Vladimir Konashevich, including frontis, full-page, and in-line; very good condition. A beautiful and uncommon edition of Ivan Turgenev's (1818 - 1883) novella, it was published in Germany for the Russian emigre community and illustrated by master graphic artist and member of Mir Isskustva Vladimir Konashevich (1888 - 1963). The work, originally published in 1860 in "Biblioteka dlia chteniia" journal, told the love story between a 21-year-old woman and a 16-year-old boy. In Turgenev's own words, it was the most autobiographical of all his writings and it drew polar-opposite reviews, gathering a great number of supporters and at the same time being condemned for its inapropriate subject matter.

Description
Boston: John P. Jewett & Company, 1852. Very good.. 4pp. Folio. Original pictorial wrappers with vignette of "Little Eva and Uncle Tom in the Arbor" on front cover, sewn, but removed from a bound volume with some paper remnants along spine. Minor soiling to outer wrappers, mild edge wear, light thumb-soiling to outer margins of text. The scarce musical score for an early and once-popular song taken from Harriet Beecher Stowe's immortal classic, Uncle Tom's Cabin, with "poetry" by John Greenleaf Whittier and music by Manuel Emilio. This sheet music was published by the same publisher, in the same year, as the novel itself. The illustration on the front cover shows Little Eva reading the Bible to Uncle Tom in a leafy forest setting. According to Blanck, the present copy displays state A of the cover title and state C of the first page of text, with no priority established in either case. BAL 21776.

Description
1913. [Women's Education] [Law] [Boston University] Boston University School of Law, Class of 1913 photograph featuring six early women law graduates. Imperial sized photo measures 17" x 19". Photo shows ninety-two individual oval portraits arranged around a central block of five faculty members. Titled in manuscript: "Boston University, School of Law, 1913." Photographer's mark in lower right corner: J.A. Gammons. The women are featured in the lower central portion of the image, each in formal dress, with hair pinned and expressions composed. Boston University was among the most progressive American institutions with respect to coeducation and racial inclusion in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The BU School of Law had accepted women from its founding and notably graduated Lelia J. Robinson in 1881, the first woman to graduate from a Massachusetts law school and the first woman admitted to the Massachusetts bar. By 1913, although women still made up a small minority in most law schools nationwide, Boston University continued to lead in gender inclusion. The visibility of these early women graduates stands as a testament to their individual perseverance and to the relatively inclusive mission of BU Law at a time when most legal institutions either barred or heavily discouraged women. Mounted on heavy brown cardstock with minor rubbing to the extremities and a small chip to the lower right mount corner. Toning to image consistent with age but still bright and sharp. Overall very good condition. A powerful visual artifact of women's advancement in higher education and the legal profession.

[Salt Lake City], 1991. Pen and ink drawing [23 cm x 30 cm] / [9" x 12"] on sketch paper with a perforated edge on the left side. Ink drawing of the south facade of the old Salt Lake City Public Library (now the Leonardo) that accompanied the Goodman article 'Library Building and the system behind it - have endured through tough times' from the Salt Lake Tribune (3/29/92) by Jack Goodman (1913-2003), the longtime author of the weekly column "City View" in the Salt Lake Tribune. "And yet (unless they've been hiding things from us), the Main Library occupying the strategic corner of 500 South and 200 East opposite the refurbished City Hall continues to prove functional. Its exterior and interior seem as attractive as ever in these days when computers have replaced index cards and super-market style electronic scanners have replaced pencil-end date stompers once skillfully wielded by librarians of yore.
