Self-wraps [newspaper]. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Boston: M.M. Ballou, 1855. First Edition [newspaper]. The May 26,1855 issue, Volume VIII, No. 21, Whole No. 203. Numerous illustrations from engravings. Elephant folio size, sewn newsprint wraps, 16 pp. A strong Very Good Plus; other than modest occasional darkening to p…laces on the covers (see scans), hardly anything to point to here. One of the highest grade copies I have. Maturin Ballou's paper was quite supple, not at all fragile, and it shows. Sharp, healthy, well-preserved. This issue contains stories, articles, and / or the diverse and now somewhat legendary engravings - as follows: Club House, Corner of Beacon and Park Streets, with large engraving; "The King and the Cobbler: A Romance of Ancient Persia" (continuation at chapter VIII) by Austin C. Burdick; three locations in New Zealand, with text and three engravings; William the Conqueror, with large engraving; "The Pretended Nephew", by Anne T. Wilbur; Trenton, New Jersey, with text and six memorable engravings; "Greece", by Dr. J.V.C. Smith; "Freemont! Or, The Ride of the One Hundred" by Frederick Stanhope; Freeman Hunt, Esq., text with engraving; Old Fort at Medford, text with engraving; Old Feather Store, Dock Square, Boston, text with engraving; Quakers in Boston; Norfolk House, Roxbury, text with engraving; Revolutionary Monument at Lexington, text with engraving; Revolutionary Monument at Concord, text with scan; and a number of short editorials, news pieces, poems, and ads. Maturin Ballou's 16-page newsprint periodical was already a piece of American history when he, as managing editor of Gleason's Pictorial, bought that - the first successful illustrated weekly newspaper in America - from owner Frederick Gleason in 1855. An early issue under this name. lLng1. From Engravings (illustrator).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 2nd Edition. 2nd ed., 2nd printing ; xii, 435 p. illus., map (on lining paper) plates (part col.) 26 cm. ; OCLC 1401770978 ; "An American Horticultural Society book."; orange cloth in photographic dustjacket ; owner presentation on half title ; "Under a "grand-fat…hering" clause, the names of J. B. Stevenson's Kurume introductions that were considered to have been available "in the trade" were registered in 1958 by the then International Registration Authority/Royal Horticultural Society (IRA/RHS) and were included in The International Rhododendron Register published in that year by the RHS. Whilst doubts have been expressed about the correctness of the spellings and transliteration of some plant names, what really matters is that the IRA/ RHS had the foresight to "put a stick in the sand" and record the names and details of what plants were thought to have been commercially available at a particular point in time. J. B. Stevenson and James Russell both supplied information at the time the 1958 edition was compiled, and the content of the IRA/ RHS records suggest they were based on this information, which, presumably, the RHS archived for future reference. Minor revisions were made to the names in the registration process where they did not accord with the expected format and spelling of Japanese epithets.(1) Frederic P. Lee in The Azalea Book, Second Edition, makes passing mention of Stevenson, but only names 28 of his introductions.(2) Irrespective of problems with the transliteration of Japanese names, Lee's flower details correctly replicate the details for Stevenson's introductions in Britain."--John M. Hammond ; wear to dustjacket ; VG/G. Book.
