Description
London: [Privately printed], 1902. POTTER, Beatrix. London: Privately Printed by Strangeways], February 1902. First (privately printed) edition, second issue. One of 200 copies printed. Twelvemo (5 3/16 x 4 1/16 inches; 131 x 103 mm.). [84] pp. Color frontispiece and forty-one full-page black and white text illustrations. Original olive green boards pictorially stamped and lettered in black on front cover. Spine rounded (not flat). Spine a bit darkened, with extremities very lightly rubbed. A few minor scratches to front cover. Occasional very minor finger soiling. A near fine copy of this extremely rare edition. Housed in a quarter speckled calf clamshell case. An excellent association copy, inscribed on the front free endpaper to Victoria, the youngest daughter of Blanche Wrigley (née Potter), Beatrix Potter's cousin: "To/'Victoria'/from/Grandmama/Feb. 13th, 1902." "Grandmama" was probably Mary Anderson, the wife of Beatrix Potter's uncle, Edmund Crompton Potter. "The first issue comprised 250 copies; they are distinguished by a flat-backed binding of gray-green boards, printed with a black-line drawing. The books were ready on 16 December and Miss Potter began giving them away to selected friends and relatives and selling them to others at one shilling two pence each. By this time, however, Beatrix Potter's career had already been given its first impetus, for the publisher Frederick Warne & Co. had agreed to accept the book for publication in a regular trade edition. But in February 1902, before the trade edition was ready, Miss Potter ordered another 200 copies to be printed of her private edition, this second issue had a rather better binding, with a rounded back and darker printed boards. In October 1902 the Warne commercial edition was published" (Morgan Library, Early Children's Books, 220, describing the 1901 first issue). Linder, p. 420. Quinby 1A. HBS 69526. $35,000.

Description
New York: published by Enshel, Adler & Sons, 94 Fulton Street, 1860. Hand-colored lithograph approx. 24½" x 20" (by sight, not examined out of frame); fine example with strong coloring; attractively matted and in a classic white frame. The steamboats Diana and Baltic are running side by side on a moon-lit night. A similar version with the same title was published in Berlin by F. Sala & Co. In that version, the raft in the foreground is not at a landing but rather under way, the smoke from the steamboats' stacks goes to the left, and there is no third steamboat in the distance. Adam Weingartner also made another similar lithograph in 1859 showing what is now a "race" between the Baltic and the Diana, smoke going to the left, the raft further out into the river and three steamboats in the distance.

Description
London: Printed for the Author and sold at her House in White-Harte Street, 1750. First edition. Modern drab wrappers, all edges speckled red. Bound with blank pages to rear. Measuring 175 x 100mm. Collating [2], 41, [1, blank]: bound without the half title, else complete. Signed on the final page of text by the author: "Your Lordship's most obed[ient] serv[ant]! T. Muilman." Internally fresh and unmarked, with pages closely trimmed; no loss to printed text, but minor loss to final letter of author's signature. One of three issues with unknown priority, the present first edition of A Letter Humbly Address'd conforms to ESTC T82111, including the dash in White-Harte and the author's signature to "prevent imposition" (Sloane Museum). All variants are scarce institutionally and in trade. No copy of any variant has come to auction in the last 25 years. Having entered the sex trade at the age of 12, Teresia Constantia Phillips Muilman leveraged her marginalized position to publicly narrate her experiences in ways often denied to women within the patriarchally sanctioned marriage economy. Beginning with her celebration of non-normative sexuality in The Happy Courtezans (1735), she became a master of generating and then utilizing scandals around her to achieve greater reputation. While the responses to The Happy Courtezans prompted her to further publish The Fateful Courtezans and The Secrets of a Woman's Heart, her autobiographical works have solidified her historical fame. Her Apology for the Conduct of Mrs. TC Phillips, "written in three parts, the first of which was published in 1748," provide us with much of what we know of her life, though she was an admittedly unreliable source and the salacious details may have been designed to blackmail men she felt had wronged her (Murden). In the present work, released in three variant issues in 1750, Muilman takes an opportunity to show that she is not only an appetitive figure roiled in sexual scandal. A Letter Humbly Address'd -- reissued a decade later as The Real Duty of a Woman -- was a space where she logically takes patriarchy to task, considering the academic and social educations of women as well as the double standards placed upon them. "My Lord," she begins, "when you jocosely recommended to me the writing of the Whole Duty of Woman, I dare say you imagined the Thought expir'd in the Birth: first, that I believe your Lordship does not conceive me capable of such a Task of such Solidity and good Judgement, and lastly that my own Actions have been conducted with so little Wisdom and Discretion that it is hardly possible to imagine that she, who has judged so ill for herself, can have any conception of what the Duty of a Woman really is, or ought to be." While Muilman admits to her past choices, allowing the reader to place some blame upon her, she does not seek forgiveness. Rather, she embraces a position of "a female rake" whose "libertinism is marked by a double transgression of gender as well as class" and who can defend socially vulnerable women because she no longer is one (Wilson). Thus, in calling out her own actions she also calls to task the men who do the same; she asks why they should not be condemned or punished alike, if their actions violate the same rules. "I think, in Honour and Justice, there should be some lesser Punishment [for seduction] than that of eternal Infamy, affix'd to a Crime in Which men are the principal Aiders and Abetters, or else that Crime should be equally odious in both: for at present, the Thief is exempted from Punishment, and it is only the Party despoiled who suffers." ESTC T82111.

8 p.l., 586, [38] pp. 4to, cont. calf (upper joint cracked at head, minor foxing at beginning & end), red morocco lettering piece on spine. London: W. Johnston, Keith, & E. Dilly, 1759. First edition in English, with considerable additions based on his own experiments by the translator William Lewis, author of the Commercium Philosophico-Technicum (London: 1763-65). Neumann (1683–1737), contributed significantly to the establishment of Stahlian chemistry in Germany and its dissemination throughout Europe. “He distinguished clearly between pure and applied chemistry and insisted that the chemical approach to nature was vastly superior to the mechanical philosophy.”–D.S.B., X, p. 26. “The text is divided into three approximately equal parts covering the mineral, vegetable and animal kingdoms. One of the best textbooks of the period, it contains (according to Cole) ‘the first exposition of Stahl’s phlogiston theory in English.’ A bibliography of Neumann’s publications appears in the preface.”–Neville, II, p. 222. A very good copy. Bookplate of William Downes on front paste-down. ❧ Cole 973. Partington II, pp. 702–706.

Description
Paris: By the Author, 1919. Softcover. Single sheet - manuscript on recto, address and cancelled stamp on verso; 4 1/2 x 6; deckled edges; slight uniform age-toning; minor crease; ink a bit faded; one word underlined in blue pencil; very good to near fine. "May 11, 1919 Dear Mr. Vaughan, I have seen Putilov again and I have had a chat with Rafalovich. They have agreed to keep their promise. I have passed along the request of M. Merigaud to Admiral Poguliaev, (4 rue Christophe Colomb), who is in charge of this kind of matter. Cordially, B. Savinkov" As one of the leaders of a terrorist branch of the Social Revolutionary Party, Savinkov was responsible for some of the most gruesome and spectacular assassinations of imperial officials at the beginning of the century. Putilov (mentioned in the letter) - was a wealthy Russian industrialist whose 'Putilov Factory' was the site of series of major strikes during WWI. Admiral Poguliaev was an ex-Navy officer living in exile. By 1919, while Savinkov was in Paris, he had managed, with Putilov and Poguliaev's help, to organize a group of rich capitalists to subsidize his organization "National Union for the Defense of Country and Freedom." His main purpose, put simply, was terror and his agents within Russia continuously gathered information on the military and general situations which was then passed on to as many foreign military missions and officials as possible. Savinkov eventually returned to Russia where he was condemned to death with his sentence later commuted to life imprisonment. He committed suicide in prison in 1925. Though not specified, the letter was most probably arranging for an exchange of classified documents and info.

Description
1969. [Counterculture] [Robert Crumb] Motor City Comics. San Francisco: Rip Off Press, April 1969. First printing. Staplebound in original wrappers. A landmark in underground comix and countercultural publishing, Motor City Comics showcases iconic cartoonist Robert Crumb's anarchic satire and radical political voice. Featuring the debut of Lenore Goldberg and her Girl Commandos, this issue exemplifies the genre's revolutionary, anti-authoritarian spirit and explicit critique of gender roles, capitalism, and police violence during the height of the Vietnam War era and second-wave feminism. Crumb's cover art features a militant, buxom Lenore Goldberg punching a grotesquely exaggerated police officer while shouting, "Join the world-family revolution or DIE!"-a powerful symbol of female rebellion against patriarchal and state power. Within, stories like "The Desperate Character," "Deep Meaning Comics," and "Boingy Baxter" blend absurdist humor with sharp social commentary. Themes of class struggle, generational alienation, and existential despair saturate the panels, often punctuated by Crumb's signature grotesque figuration and text-heavy reflections. Especially notable is the comic's feminist satire, which-while controversial in its depiction-elevates Goldberg as a rare radical female figure in a male-dominated genre. On the back cover, Crumb's "Workers of the World Arise!" offers a proletarian call to arms, parodying Marxist propaganda while sincerely addressing labor exploitation and alienation in late-capitalist America. Light wear consistent with age, overall clean and well preserved. Overall very good condition. Motor City Comics remains an excellent example of the underground comix movement, 1960s political art, and gender in countercultural media.

Description
New York: St. Martin's Press. Near Fine in Fine dj. 1996. First Edition. Hardcover. 0312143141 . [nice tight fresh copy, no discernible wear to either book or jacket, but some intermittent fading to black cloth at spine (not sure how that could have happened, since to my knowledge the jacket has never been off this book!); NO remainder or other marks]. "Carved from a lifetime of experience that runs the gamut from incarceration to liberation, [this book] is the story of three men who are all out of prison and now have the task of adapting themselves to civilian life. The California three strikes law looms over them, but what the hell, they're going to do it, and they're going to do it their way." The author's last published novel, although he did manage to turn out a memoir prior to his death in 2005. .
