Description
FIRST EDITION OF NACHTGALL'S TRANSLATION OF LUCIAN'S DIALOGUES OF THE GODS Strassburg, Johannes Schott, 1515. [84] ff. Title and two illuminated initials printed in red and black; bilingual edition with Latin text on rectos, Greek on facing versos, with metalcut decorative borders for the Greek text. Bound in later marbled paper and cloth-covered boards, with gilt title on spine label. Ex libris and bibliographic note (dated 1907) of Dr. Josef Schwerdfeger. Toning throughout, small ink spots on title and verso of final leaf, short tear in blank upper margin of title and f. a2, paper flaw in margin of f. t3. Generally very good. Rare first edition of the Strasbourg humanist Ottmar Nachtigall's edition and parallel Latin translation of Lucian's satirical Dialogues of the Gods. The ancient's cynicism and common sense found a wide audience among Northern European humanists in the intellectual orbit of Erasmus. A member of the circle of Strasbourg humanists which included Jakob Sturm, Nikolaus Gerbel, Thomas Vogler, his teacher Jakob Wimpfeling and Sebastian Brant, Nachtigall is credited with introducing the formal teaching of Greek to the city of Strasbourg. In this capacity he prepared a number of Greek grammars and Greek texts, including an edition of the Palatine Anthology. He met Erasmus during the humanist's visit to Strasbourg in 1514; Erasmus is duly saluted in the present work's preface (a1v), though relations between the two men later underwent some strain when they lived in the same house in Basel (see Contemporaries of Erasmus III.3). Nachtigall is also known for a popular defense of humanistic studies, Grunnius sophista and original works of music theory, and his career warrants study as a Northern humanist sympathetic to church reform who nonetheless remained a Catholic. OCLC lists copies at the University of Texas-Austin, Emory's Pitts Theology Library, Harvard, and Cambridge. PROVENANCE: Josef Adolf Schwerdfeger (1867-1931), Austrian historian.

Description
Boston [Paris]: J.P. Whitney, 1867. First Edition Thus. . 8vo, publisher’s green cloth, 107 pp. Some tearing and fraying to boards, particularly at head of spine, text block excellent, very good minus overall. Very Good. The scarce Paris Universal Exposition edition of J.P. Whitney’s early title on the silver mines of Colorado. Whitney, a wealthy sportsman from Boston with investments in Colorado, traveled as the sole commissioner from Colorado to the Paris Universal Exposition in an effort to entice foreign investment in the mining industry, which was suffering from a poor reputation as the costs of extraction grew higher. Whitney had published this title in pamphlet form a year earlier. Whitney shipped his own collection of Colorado minerals to France, where it was the most extensive of any of the North American regions to be displayed, receiving a gold medal from Napoleon III. A new title on Colorado minerals, Colorado, in the United States of America: Schedule of Ores Contributed by Sundry Persons to the Paris Universal Exposition of 1867, With Some Information about the Region and its Resources. Whitney also brought with him copies of his pamphlet in a special hardcover edition, which we offer here. This is the second example we find on the market. Whitney would gain great popularity in Colorado for his efforts, which did much to improve its standing.

Description
Sing Sing (Ossining), New York, unknown year. Three approximately 8 x 10 inch pages. Excellent to near fine.. An illustrated poem from an unknown sender to Miss Cornelia Marshall in Sing Sing, New York. Sing Sing was the name of Ossining—which is home to the eponymous prison—until 1901. It was named for the Sint Sinck (Wappinger) people, whose traditional territory lay east of the Hudson River in what is now Westchester County. The poem is chastely flirtatious, telling the story of a man at church services who is so distracted by the beauty of one of the women in the church choir that he cannot report on the subject of that day’s sermon. The author describes the woman, who wears a blue cloak: “Her beauty’s so great that it looked like the sun/ Or five handsome ladies all rolled into one”. The illustrations appear to be ink and watercolor. A sweet piece, of interest to folk art historians.

Berkeley, California: N.p., 1966. Attractive flyer measuring 7 ½ x 10 ½ inches. Fine.. A flyer for a 1966 music, arts, and theater night at the Blind Lemon folk club in Berkeley, California. Acts include a performance by the psychedelic rock band Notes from the Underground, films from Canyon Cinema co-founder Herb de Grass, and “visionary photography” by photographer and noted poster designer Paul Kagan. Perhaps most well-known among the performers is the San Francisco Mime Troupe. Formed in 1959 and still active, the avant-garde theater troupe is known for their purposefully bizarre and often confrontational political and social satire. R. G. Davis, the troupe’s founder, described their mission: “to teach, to direct towards change and be an example of change.”[1] At the time of the Blind Lemon performance, the troupe’s regular show was A Minstrel Show, which, as the name suggests, consisted of blackface minstrelsy. Of interest to historians of the artistic counterculture of the 1960s, especially in the Bay Area. [1] R. G. Davis, The San Francisco Mime Troupe: the first ten years (Ramparts Press, 1975), 70.

"In this entirely recast and greatly enlarged second edition, Pinel adds much new material and discusses the results of new and more humane methods of treatment for the insane" (Heirs of Hippocrates). "Pinel founded the French School of Psychiatry. He was among the first to treat the insane humanely; he dispensed with chains and placed his patients under the care of specially selected physicians. Garrison considered the above book one of the foremost medical classics, giving as it did a great impetus to humanitarian treatment of the insane.…The second French edition, Paris, Brosson, 1809 was very substantially enlarged by Pinel" (Garrison-Morton).

Description
Seventeen numbers in 16 issues comprising a complete run. Additional supplement to no. 14. Text in French. Printed multiple colors, illustrated throughout. Folio. Very good. folded broadsheet format. [1875] Militant-leftist, post-'68 underground French newspaper, most notable for having Jean-Paul Sartre on the masthead as "Director of Publication." A note from Sartre in issue 1 explains: "I agreed to direct 'ce que nous voulons: TOUT' just as I agreed, last April, to direct 'La Cause du Peuple' of which I am still director. These two newspapers do not agree on many points, and I personally do not necessarily agree with everything that can be read in them. That is not the question: the infamous and ridiculous lawsuits that the government levels, through a court of exception, against the vendors of 'La Cause du Peuple' show that the ruling class intends to quickly suppress any revolutionary press. To better strike those who challenge it, the bourgeoisie does not hesitate to violate its own laws; there is therefore an urgent political struggle to be waged at this level. Since I have not been indicted in the trials now taking place, I make myself available to any revolutionary newspaper in order to force the bourgeois class to make a political trial of me, the object of which will clearly, this time, be the freedom of the press, or to unmask, by their not indicting me, the illegality of the repression." Other notable features of the publication include frequent solidarity with global antiracist and freedom struggles, including with the Black Panthers and Young Lords in the US, as well as Palestinians; and its overall hippie-counterculture aesthetic, exemplified in one case by a front-page illustration by R. Crumb. Overall a visually and politically compelling periodical of its time, elevated by Sartre's involvement, and very scarce as a complete run.

1973. Ephemera. Very Good. Wonderful handmade book on the reaction of the public to the 1973 opening of the Sears Tower in Chicago. Hand-drawn illustrations and handwritten captions, all done by one anonymous, clearly talented artist/author, who seemed to exactly capture the times in his simple narrative. Very clean and crisp, with a bit of light soiling to one or two pages. The rear of each sheet shows glue (where the separate pages were glued into a book?). Consists of 7 separate sheets, each measuring 5 1/2" wide x 8" tall, with 2 additional smaller sheets. These additional sheets seem to be incomplete and suggest the book may be missing one or two panels. Even still though, utterly charming and very ephemeral.

Description
Hartline, Wa: E.D. Reinhart, 1910. Good plus.. Large format sepia-toned albumen photograph, 6.25 x 8.25 inches on a slightly larger gray studio mat stamped "E.D. Reinhart Hartline, Wash." at lower middle. Small abrasions and scratches to mat above the photograph, one small scratch to right side of image, minor rubbing, moderate edge wear. A handsome photograph showing four farmers sowing wheat in a barren landscape near Hartline, Washington in the early-20th century. Each farmer stands atop a seed drill pulled by a team of horses (or a combination of horses and mules) fanned out in front of the drivers. The photographer, E.D. Reinhart, seems to have been an obscure producer, as records on him are scant to nothing, with no listings in OCLC nor any results from newspaper or census inquiries. A perhaps unique image of agricultural history from Washington State.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Jos. Schlitz Brewing Co, 1973. Very good. 19¼" x 14". Loose leaves printed rectos only held with steel bar at top. Very good: a few light stains and stray ink to cover page; a few minor creases. This is a wall calendar dedicated to Mexican American history. The full title of its cover page includes the Spanish text and its translation reads, "Great Men of Spanish, Mexican and Indian Heritage and their Significant Contributions to the History of the Southwest." Each page contains bilingual text of an important events and people related to Mexican American history for each day of the year as well as a large portrait and biography of a historically important person of Mexican descent. These notables include mural painter and lithographer Jose Clemente Orozco, Mexican President and soldier Vicente Guerrero, civil rights leader Mario Obledo, Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II, and revolutionaries Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata. The daily entries include birth dates of other renowned Mexican Americans, and establishments of missions, towns, and states. There are also dates for important events like wars and revolutions, as well as discoveries and accomplishments of Mexican individuals. We learn that the "Foreign Miners Tax Law of 1850, aimed at eliminating Mexicans from the gold fields, went into effect" on May 20, for example, and that Los Angeles was "founded by Mexicans of mixed Indian, Negro, and Spanish descent" on September 3, 1781. OCLC shows two holdings of the Calendario, and a Google search showed two others; searching each institutions' catalogs revealed only one holding of this edition, at the Wisconsin Historical Society Library.

This is an original ceramic tile made by the Minton China Works in Stoke-upon-Trent, England. It was designed by John Moyr Smith and produced circa 1878. The tile depicts the death of Bois-Guilbert. It is eight inches square. John Moyr Smith designed twelve tiles based on Scott's popular Waverly Novels. They were first introduced at the Paris Exhibition of 1878. The original tiles were eight inches square with later ones reduced to six inches. Original tiles from this series are scarce. This tile is in very good condition with one small chip on the back edge that does not affect the image. It is crazed as are most tiles of this age but the crazing does not detract from the imagery and colors. The colors are various shades of grays, whites, black and tan. Moyr Smith signature in the tile and the reverse of the tile is stamped Minton with their seal and Stoke-on-Trent.A beautiful literary object, perfect for the Scott lover.
