Title: HBCU Lincoln University & Segregated Swimming Pool Photo Album, Partially Identified, Pennsylvania 1950s
Author: HBCU; Lincoln University
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1950. Social and athletic life of partially identified Black male college students at one of the oldest historically black universities, Lincoln University, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1854 in Pennsylvania, Lincoln University became an important center for Black intellectual development, producing generations of educators, clergy, political leaders, and professionals during the era of segregation in American higher education. Album includes 48 black and white photographs bound in wooden covers titled "Snap Shots" in black script, featuring a painted Western rider motif. Images mounted with paper photo corners. Photos measure between 2.5" x 2.5" to 4" x 5" and album measures 7" x 10". The photographs depict identified and partly identified African American students, many labeled in ink with first names, and some with last names such as "Negail Riley," and others, along with a group of men repeatedly identified with the surname "City", possibly brothers. The most compelling images show some of these young men at an all Black swimming pool performing different jumps and dives, as well as posing in front of the pool, one image shows a muscular Black man playfully lifting up a Black woman to show off his strength. Other photos capture young Black men in a formative moment of collegiate life at Lincoln University, one of the nation's oldest Historically Black Colleges and Universities, founded in 1854 in Pennsylvania and long associated with the cultivation of Black intellectual, political, and athletic leadership. One inscription reads "Lincoln Campus -- in front of our pad" situating the images within the institutional landscape of the university. The men are shown in tailored double-breasted suits, striped jackets, graduation caps and gowns, and football uniforms, embodying the aspirational respectability and achievement culture central to mid-century Black collegiate identity. The prominence of the pool area is especially significant given the history of racial segregation at public pools in the United States through the mid-20th century, when many municipal pools excluded Black swimmers or limited access to segregated hours. Whether campus-based or segregated public facilities, these images of confident Black male bodies in aquatic space counter a long history of exclusion and danger surrounding water access for African Americans. They visually assert physical freedom, camaraderie, and athletic excellence in an era when Black bodily presence in such spaces was politically charged. The photographs are mounted cleanly with occasional minor corner wear to the prints and album pages. Some surface scuffing and light age toning are present, and album covers remain in tact. Overall very good condition. As a cohesive visual record of Black collegiate masculinity, athletic culture, and social networks at an HBCU during the segregation era, this album offers a rare and intimate perspective on student life, achievement, and leisure within one of the nation's foundational Black institutions.

Title: China "Dare to Teach" 1960s Mao Zedong Poster
Author: Mao Tse Tung
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: Chinese Communist propaganda poster of Mao Tse Tung with the slogan "Dare to Teach". Measures 30" x 21". Printed in China with text in Mandarin. An image of Mao in his characteristic military suit and cap with a red star. Mao has a lit cigar, smiling approvingly upon a large crowd of workers, soldiers, and students who are marching ahead with large revolutionary banners. Posters such as this one were printed during the Cultural Revolution to give an artistic representation of the kind of society that the Maoist regime was trying to build. During the Cultural Revolution many teachers were considered elitists and accused of opposing equality and solidarity. Students physically attacked teachers, some were beaten and many were humiliated. After these events, Mao wanted the students to become active participants in helping to tear down the old ways and help institute new revolutionary ones, and therefore encouraged them to become teachers. In very good condition overall.

ISBN: 9781886363267
Description: 1998. ISBN-13: 9781886363267; ISBN-10: 1886363269. Tucker, Henry St. George. Commentaries on the Laws of Virginia. Comprising the Substance of a Course of Lectures Delivered to the Winchester Law School. With a new Introduction by David Cobin and Paul Finkelman. Richmond: Shepherd and Colin, 1846. Two volumes. 34, 468; 24, 512 pp. Reprinted 1998 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781886363267; ISBN-10: 1886363269. Hardcover. New. $95. * Along with James Kent's Commentaries on American Law and Joseph Story's Commentaries, Tucker's two volume work established the standard for American treatise writing and helped to organize American law. The Commentaries served as the primary reference source for the bar of Virginia as well as for many in the rest of the country until 1850, and was considered the most valuable text for students and lawyers in much of the South until the Civil War. While modeled on Blackstone's Commentaries, Tucker's work is entirely original. In that way it is a much more impressive accomplishment than his father's edition of Blackstone. The senior Tucker labored hard to annotate Blackstone, and then add to it; Tucker wrote his Commentaries on the Laws of Virginia himself, based on his lectures at Winchester Law School, which he established in 1824. The Commentaries on the Laws of Virginia cover in detail the subject matter in the first three Blackstone's Commentaries.

Title: The Legal Code of Aelfred the Great. 1973 Reprint of 1893 edition
Author: Turk, Milton Haight, ed. [Alfred, King of Wessex]
Seller: The Lawbook Exchange Ltd (United States)
Description: 1973. Aelfred, King of Wessex [CE 871-899]. Turk, Milton Haight, Editor. The Legal Code of Aelfred the Great. Edited With an Introduction. Boston: Published by Ginn and Company, 1893. Reprint. New York: AMS Press, [1973]. viii, 147 pp. Hardcover. Maroon cloth with gilt spine lettering. As new. $20. * This seminal work provides a definitive scholarly examination of King Alfred's Doom Book. As the most ambitious legislative achievement of the ninth century, the code represents a pivotal synthesis of ancient West Saxon customs-drawing from the precedents of Ine of Wessex and Offa of Mercia-and Christian ethics. Turk's meticulous introduction offers a rigorous philological analysis of primary manuscripts held at Corpus Christi College and the British Museum. The text reveals how Alfred utilized a Mosaic preface to transform tribal law into a unified national identity, effectively establishing the foundational precursors to English Common Law. This volume covers essential legal topics ranging from property rights to criminal justice and the system of social compensation. This 1893 edition remains a cornerstone for historians and linguists seeking to understand the dawn of Anglo-Saxon governance and the ideological architecture of the English state.
