Description
New York: B. W. Huebsch, 1919. First Edition. Near Fine/Very Good. First edition, first issue with unbroken title page rule; "lay" for "lie" on page 86, line 5; and broken type of the word "the" on page 251, line 3. [x], 303 pp. Bound in publisher's canary yellow cloth, paper title label to spine, yellow topstain, map printed to front pastedown. Near Fine with light wear and soiling to cloth and topstain, darkening to rear joint. Offsetting from jacket to free endpapers, bookplate to front free endpaper, and light toning to contents. In the scarce dust jacket, Very Good with sunned spine panel, moderate wear and soiling to exposed panels, and several tape repairs. Price on spine crossed out and new price written in ink below. Bruccoli & Clark, Vol. 2 p. 14. The first appearance of the acclaimed collection of modernist short stories centered around a small Ohio town, in much better than average condition. The book was published during the transitional period when jackets had been adopted but were disposable, intended only to protect the cloth before the sale. This jacket advertises Winesburg as a masterwork "in which people's very souls are bared." The legendary critic H.L. Mencken agreed: "It is so vivid, so full of insight, so shiningly life-like and glowing, that the book is lifted into a category all its own.

Collection des Costumes Militaires, Armée Francaise 1832, Représentés dans des Sujets de Genre. Lithographie par V. Adam. Paris: Chez Dero-Becker, [ca. 1840]. First edition. Oblong folio (10 7/8 x 14 1/4 inches; 278 x 362 mm.). Forty-two superb hand colored lithograph plates, all heightened with gum arabic.

Description
1771. DIDEROT. Tapestry-weaving, in 3 parts: 7 pp., 45 plates, of which 11 are double-page. From vol. 8. Folio, bound in half terra-cotta morocco over salmon cloth boards, gilt. Tapissier, with a view of the Boutique, and the many products available therein, including curtains, bedspreads, upholstery, and so forth. With two additional suites, entitled Tapisserie de basse-lisse des Gobelins and Tapisserie de haute-lisse des Gobelins, which illustrate the practice of the famous Gobelins tapestry factories. These tapestries were decorated with pictorial subjects; painted; embroidered; woven in colours, gold, and silver thread, and so forth. Alan Summerly Cole distinguishes between the practices of Gobelins and Beauvais: "At the Gobelins, the warp threads are stretched in frames standing vertically (high warp or haute lisse): at Beauvais in frames placed horizontally with the ground (low warp or basse lisse)." This suite of plates and text derives from the great French eighteenth-century Encyclopédie edited by Denis Diderot and Jean Le Rond D'Alembert. The Diderot & D'Alembert Encyclopédie remains "A monument in the history of European thought; the acme of the age of reason; a prime motivating force in undermining the Ancien Régime and in heralding the French Revolution; a permanent source for all aspects of eighteenth-century civilization..." (Printing and the Mind of Man).

The Hague, Paris and London: Nicolaus van Daalen / G.-F. de Bure / Thomas Wilcox, 1765. First Edition. Very good. Two vols., 4to. Ad 1: xi, [1], 260 pp. Ad 2: viii, 312 pp. + [2] pp. (Avis au Relieur). COMPLETE with 2 engraved portraits (Meerman and Coster), 1 double-page letterpress genealogical table of the Coster family (vol. 1, opposite p. 54), engraved coat of arms of Johann Schott, and 10 engraved plates of early documents and type facsimiles (plates numbered I-VI, VI* and VII-IX). Contemporary mottled calf, spines gilt, marbled pastedowns and endpapers, red edges (endbands chipped off, wear along spines and extremities). Our copy was printed with two different paper stocks, here distinguished as A (white) and B (slightly browning). A = vol. 1: *2 **4 Ii4 and Kk2; vol. 2: *4 I-Aa4 Rr2 and singleton "Avis au Relieur." B = vol. 1: A-Hh4; vol. 2: A-H4 (SEE THE 48 IMAGES ON OUR WEBSITE). Text and plates very clean and unmarked. THE FIRST TRULY IMPORTANT DETAILED STUDY ON THE HISTORY OF THE EARLIEST PRINTERS, IN WHICH ARE PUBLISHED FOR THE FIRST TIME NUMEROUS KEY DOCUMENTS, SOME TRANSCRIBED IN TYPE, OTHERS CAREFULLY REPRODUCED ON TEN ENGRAVED PLATES, INCLUDING XYLOGRAPHY, EARLY ORIENTAL PRINTING, PROTOTYPOGRAPHY, THE 42- AND 36-LINE BIBLES, THE MENTELIN BIBLE, AND OTHER INCUNABULA. Our zealous author traveled all over Europe (and perhaps even to England) to undertake first-hand examination of incunabula, post-incunabula, and hitherto unknown documents, and his industry continues to impress, particularly when one considers the fact that "travel" in the mid-18th century was grueling in the extreme, and that the exchange of information by "mail" was glacial in speed. The number of "foreign correspondents" who contributed to the present work is remarkable (typefounder Johannes Enschede being the most significant). While Meerman wrongly claimed that Laurens Jansz. Coster (and not Gutenberg) was the inventor of movable type, the importance of his "Origines Typographicae" cannot be overestimated because of the degree to which it promoted and perpetuated incunabula research throughout every European country and beyond. Indeed, the "Origines Typographicae" went through several translations and editions, and continues to be cited today. Gerard Meerman (1722-1771) was celebrated not only as a jurist and statesman, but also a humanist who spent a large part of his considerable fortune collecting books, manuscripts and antiquities; indeed, he is justly considered to be Holland's first truly great scholar-collector. His collection of manuscripts and early printed books is still preserved in The Hague at the Museum Meermanno-Westreenianum. Meerman's "Origines Typographicae" was soon followed by "De Chartae Vulgaris seu lineae origine" (1767), one of the first studies of the watermarks in the paper used by the earliest printers. Bigmore and Wyman II, 32. Enschedé, Typefoundries, pp. xix and 206.

The Ohio Woman Suffrage Association, founded in Cincinnati in 1869, was one of the earliest state-level suffrage organizations. It was active for several decades. Like the NAWSA, the group defined itself as moderate, condemning the picketing actions of the National Woman's Party. Offered here is a poster from the campaign in favor of Constitutional Amendment no. 23 in 1912, which would have granted suffrage to women had it passed. Not located on OCLC as of March 2024.

Description
Jefferson NC/London: McFarland & Company, Inc,. Fine. (c.1998). First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket, as issued) [nice clean as-new book, with no significant wear beyond the teensiest bumping at the lower corners]. (B&W photographs) What, you want more of a description than that fulsome subtitle provides? (I do, however, believe that the correct plural of "film noir" is not "films noirs," but rather "films noir." Methinks the publishers doth pluralize too much.) .
