Description
Mission, British Columbia: Barbarian Press, 2025. Softcover. Fine. Softcover. One of 120 copies Writes the press: Two of our Loose Canons pamphlets featuring neglected poets will be published in 2025: the first, a second edition of the poetry of Elinor Wylie from our earlier version of Loose Canons One, is expanded from 6 poems to 18; Loose Canons Two features poems by Edwin Arlington Robinson, with a focus on his long dramatic monologue 'Ben Jonson Entertains a Man from Stratford'. This revival of the Loose Canons series is devoted to refreshng the reputations of once celebrated poets and poems that over time have become blurred by distance, overlooked, or simply ignored.As will be the case with later additions to the series, each of these issues is intended to give a concise overview of the style and concerns of the poet in question. All the pamphlets will be hand-set in various types from the best editions of the texts, and each will offer a brief biographical note with other information as necessary. They will be sewn into a variety of cover papers and will be of a uniform size. The Loose Canons series will continue intermittently, but dependably. We intend them to provide a mix of writers in English from England, Canada, and America, and we may possibly introduce some translations from other languages as the series gather strength. This volume is a gray textured paper softcover that is sewn into wraps of St. Armand Canal paper It is handset by Apollonia Elsted in Poliphilus and Blado with Caslon Antique for display and printed on Zerkall Cream Laid paper. The book was designed by Crispin Elsted, who also selected the poems. In fine condition. Measures 7.25 x 12 inches. Unpaginated [18 pages]. PRI/041825.

Baltimore: The Williams & Wilkins Co., 1930. First edition. 1930 THE BEAUMONT FOUNDATION LECTURES--SCARCE PRESENTATION COPY OF CLINICAL RESEARCH STUDY OF GASTRIC BEHAVIOR PATTERNS FOLLOWING VARIOUS FOODS AND STIMULI. Small ocatvo, gray cloth boards, inscribed and signed by author on front free endpaper, "President Robert E Vinson/with kind regards/ T Wingate Todd", 79 pp, 12 figures in text, bookplate on front paste-down of Library of Adelbert College of Western Reserve University, Gift of President R.E. Vinson", card pocket rear paste-down with "withdrawn" stamp. Covers soiled, text very good. FROM THE PREFACE, "The subject material has consisted of groups of healthy young cooperative student subjects of both sexes. The experiments have included a considerable number of subjects and have been repeated on the same lubjects under the same conditions until sufficient data were gathered to give confidence in the uniformity of response. Actually over four hundred students assisted as subjects in this experimental work." THOMAS WINGATE TODD (1885 – 1938) was an English orthodontist who is known for his contributions towards the growth studies of children during early 1900s. He attended the University of Manchester and received his Medical Degree in 1907. After graduation he continued teaching Anatomy through 1912. He served as House Surgeon at Manchester Royal Infirmary in 1909-1910. During this time, Dr. Todd published several papers on inter-relationship of skeleton and nerves. Dr. Todd eventually moved to Western Reserve University and became the Professor of Anatomy and Physical Anthropology at the Western Reserve University School of Medicine. He taught anatomy to both dental and medical students at that time. PROVENANCE: ROBERT ERNEST VINSON (1876 – 1945) was president of the University of Texas at Austin from 1916 to 1923, then president of Western Reserve University, (now Case Western Reserve University) from 1923 to 1933. His presidency of the University of Texas was marked by the "Ferguson controversy" during which James Ferguson, Governor of Texas, attempted to oust members of the University faculty. When Vinson refused, Ferguson vetoed most of the University's appropriation. This action was compounded by the Governor's indictment on charges of embezzlement, and he was subsequently impeached and removed from office.

Description
New York: Simon and Schuster. Fair in Good dj. (c.1965). First Edition. Hardcover. [ex-library with typical markings (including a catalog card affixed to the front endpaper), confined to the front endpaper and title page; moderately shelfworn and the spine somewhat turned; the jacket flaps are firmly glued down, alas, so there's nothing to be done except to sell it "as is," a perfectly good reading copy that looks respectable on the shelf (the jacket is encased in the original library-applied plastic protective cover, so it's in pretty reasonable condition)]. An anthology of some of the best of Woolrich/Irish's short stories and novelettes, with an introduction by Ellery Queen. Contents: "One Drop of Blood"; "Somebody on the Phone"; "Debt of Honor"; "The Man Upstairs"; "The Most Exciting Show in Town"; "The Night Reveals"; "Steps Going Up"; "The Hummingbird Comes Home"; "Adventures of a Fountain Pen"; and "I Won't Take a Minute." This was the last Woolrich book to be published prior to his death in 1968, and is notable for the portrait sketch of the author (who was rarely photographed) on the rear jacket panel, signed by "Gaughan." .
