Description
Five engraved plates (three are folding) & one woodcut in the text. 1 p.l., xxiv, 539, [1] pp; 1 p.l., 416 pp. Two vols. 8vo, cont. speckled calf, flat spines gilt, red morocco lettering pieces on spines. London: H. Goldney for T. Cadell, 1780. Second edition (the first edition appeared earlier in the same year) and a handsome set. This work “was well received at the time, and has since become a valuable source as one of the few accounts of conditions in Ireland at this time. Among other subjects Young had much to say on commercial policy and the activities of the Dublin Society; and in addition Young attacked the practice of subletting land to middlemen and made some interesting observations on the living conditions of the poor.”–ODNB. Fine set.

Description
Philadelphia, 1829. ALBUM AMICORUM. CANNON, Margaret A. "Forget Me Not" Album -- a Philadelphia Album Amicorum (1829-1833). Philadelphia and Frankfort, PA, 1829-1833. Quarto (9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches; 241 x 190 mm). 73 unnumbered leaves. With cursive ink manuscript in various hands on recto of most pages. Some with hand-colored drawing, generally floral designs. A few small drawing tipped in. With evidence of some excised leaves, missing paste-ons etc. The album's paper stock was made in Philadelphia by W. Amies & Co. and bears their watermark ["W. Amies & Co." -- "Phila." -- Dove bearing olive branch], likely produced ca. 1828 or 1829. A small unopened hand colored envelope and bookmark, both dated 1905 laid in. Full contemporary calf. Boards and spine elaborately tooled in gilt. Spine with black morocco spine label, lettered in gilt. Front board with album's owner Margaret A. Connon's name stamped in gilt. With beautiful color striped endpapers. Gilt of the last name rubbed off. Boards are very worn, rubbed and scuffed. Pages are toned and soiled. But still all the entries are clear and unfaded. Overall a very nice example. This Album amicorum was complied by Margaret A. Cannon and contains numerous poems in various manuscript hands, and most are dedicated to Margaret. Some are signed and some are dated and labeled with the location. These are marked Frankford (8 miles from downtown Philadelphia) or Philadelphia. The earliest poem is dated June 26, 1829 (at Philadelphia); the majority of the poems were inscribed in 1829-1831. Two poems are dated July 26, 1831 and the latest poem was written at Philadelphia on July 24, 1833. The subject of most of the poetry is friendship, love and affection. The final poem in the album quotes the Famous American Poet Philip Freneau. Freneau was considered "The Poet of the American Revolution" and died in 1832. In the album the poem is entitled "Liberty" but it is actually taken from the first two stanza's of his poem "On the Great Western Canal of the State of New York" and reads: "The nation true to honor's cause, To equal rights and equal laws , Is well secured, and well released From the proud monarchs of the east. Thus Holland rose from Spain's controul, And thus shall rise from pole to pole Those systems formed on reason's plan That vindicate the Rights of man." HBS 68478. $1,250.

London: Macmillan and Co, 1894. Alice in Full Dress: Tenniel's Wonderland in a Sangorski & Sutcliffe Binding CARROLL, Lewis (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson). Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. With forty-two illustrations by John Tenniel. Thirty-eighth thousand. London: Macmillan and Co., Limited, 1897. [Bound together with:] Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There. With fifty illustrations by John Tenniel. Twenty-fourth thousand. London: Macmillan & Co., Limited, 1897. Peoples Edition. Finely Bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe. Two works bound in one volume. Octavo (7 x 4 5/8 inches; 178 x 117 mm.). Alice: xii, 174 pp.; Looking-Glass: xii, 208, [4, advertisements] pp. Finely bound ca. 1960 by Sangorski & Sutcliffe in full red morocco. Covers decoratively bordered in gilt, upper cover with a central gilt medallion of Alice, lower cover with a matching medallion of the Queen of Hearts. Spine with five raised bands, compartments richly tooled and lettered in gilt, gilt board edges and turn-ins, light blue and gold patterned endpapers, all edges gilt. Spine lightly faded, otherwise a fine copy. The "Peoples Edition" represents Macmillan's effort to keep Carroll's works widely accessible in durable, affordable form - yet, as here, such copies were frequently elevated by later private bindings into highly collectible objects. The "thousand" printings (Thirty-eighth thousand; Twenty-fourth thousand) reflect the extraordinary and continuous demand for Carroll's works in the late 19th century. John Tenniel's illustrations remain definitive - so closely tied to the text that they effectively fixed the visual identity of Alice, the Mad Hatter, and the Queen of Hearts for all subsequent generations. The binding by Sangorski & Sutcliffe - arguably the pre-eminent decorative bindery of 20th-century London - adds considerable appeal. Even in a restrained design such as this, their hallmark precision in forwarding and gilt tooling is evident. The use of thematic gilt medallions (Alice / Queen of Hearts) gives the volume a pleasing narrative symmetry rarely found in standard trade bindings.
