No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. [Chemistry] Mallinckrodt Outline of the History of Chemistry, by Herbert S. Klickstein for Mallinckrodt Chemical Works. 1961 revised edition. Printed on both sides. Based upon the 1927 outline of Prof. Norris W. Rakestraw. 32X40". There's a 6" tear that has been repaired with Japanese archival tissue adhesive, otherwise this is in very nice shape.

There are copies at universities and museums, but none that I can see are for sale, either reprinted or original.[++] "The "Mallinckrodt Outline of the History of Chemistry" is a historical wall chart created by Herbert S. Klickstein in 1961 for Mallinckrodt Chemical Works, which itself was based on a 1927 outline by Norris W. Rakestraw. The chart outlines the history of chemistry from ancient times to the modern day, covering topics like early alchemical and philosophical ideas, the development of modern chemistry after 1800, and key discoveries in various sub-fields such as general, analytical, physical, organic, and biochemistry."--Google AI overview [++] I have not tried to flatten the chart out because it still needs to be folded for shipping but I do believe that the waves in the paper can mostly be flattened out.

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. A huge, detailed wall-map of the United States and her territorial possessions._____ It is a single sheet, 60 x 83.5" (7 feet across!), mounted to linen(?)._____ Since the paper shows no fold lines, it is a roll-up wall map, as issued._____ EXTRA SHIPPING FEES WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THIS UNGAINLY OBJECT. _____ In the lower right corner."M. Hendges / Draughtsman" _____ Besides the great detail listed in the title, the various continental treaty acquisitions are separately bordered and overprinted with their former owners and dates of acquisition. _____ The overseas colonies are shown in inset maps across the bottom: Alaska (14 x 17"), Philippine Islands (14 x 10"), Tutuila Group of Samoa (5.5 x 8.5"), Hawaiian Islands ( 6 x 9"), Porto (sic) Rico (5.5 x 12.25") and Panama (9 x 9.5")._____ Each is overprinted with the year of acquisition and source._____ However, the Panama inset is not so overprinted though it was formally transferred to US control in May 1904, perhaps indicating this map went to the printer's early in that year._____ The bottom rod, with its ornate end-caps, is probably original._____ The top rod appears to be a piece of molding and is, almost certainly, a replacement. ______ There is cracking and chipping to the top 8" of the paper from rolling and storage._____ Easily the worst of it (2" pieces) is restricted to Canada.…
