Stanley wrote his own notes for this… catalogue which was strong in early Italian and Spanish books. "One of the most magnificent collections ever brought to the Hammer." - Horne, p. 674. William Nelson Gardiner was born at Dublin, June 11, 1766, of poor parents. He possessed considerable knowledge of books, and was a very spirited engraver. Accumulated misery, both bodily and mental, led him to take his own life. The evening before his death he addressed a letter to the editor of the 'Morning Chronicle', who had shown him repeated kindness, enclosing a "Brief memoir of himself." In this letter he declared that his sun was set for everthat his business had nearly declinedhis catalogue failedhis body covered with diseaseand he had determined to seek that asylum "were the weary are at rest." He also states "I turned bookseller, for the last 13 years have struggled in vain to establish myself. The same ill fortune which has followed me through life, has not here forsaken me. I have seen men on every side of me, greatly my inferiors in every respect, towering above me; while the most contemptible amongst them, without education, without a knowledge of their profession, and without idea, have been received into Palaces, and into the bosom of the great, while I have been forsaken and neglected, and my business reduced to nothing. It is therefore, high time for me to be gone." De Ricci, p.88. Quaritch, p.271.

In den Warenkorb10x14 inch canvas panel on pine stretcher, acryllic (we think), amateur work showing a distant view looking eastward of the Shasta-Shastina massif, forests and dry slopes in foreground. Thriftstore kitsch twiddled by another and younger artist, which now bears, superimposed, an image-conformable "name-tag" consisting of a bead o…f pigment accompanied by suitable brush-shading that integrates tag with original image: an aesthetically-satisfying defacement. Signed multiple times recto and verso, details below. Upper right-hand corner has been drilled through and through, with an eighth-inch shaft and quarter-inch countersunk depression. Pigment, canvas and wood are in very good condition. This Shasta image is not a paint-by-numbers item, but likely a copy from a calendar photo. On the stretcher is pencilled, "Painted by Evelyn Smith (niece to Lattie Grunsky from [illegible]). Painted about 1970-71". Over-printed in black crayon in a different and more youthful hand, "raven mahone". Recto bears three attributions: a small illegible signature in lower right, an Asian-seal impression in blood-orange lower left, and the tag itself. We believe we met the graffiti artist manning a garage sale with friend; while he went off to change the paltry twenty we proffered, she contributed our information that the tagger characterized the work as "a collaborative effort.".

In den WarenkorbZustand: Fine. A striking photograph of a group of miners in Grant's Pass in Oregon in the 1890s, including a woman and a girl. We believe the photograph to be taken near Tom East Creek, which provides drainage from the Greenback Lode Mine, produced a prolific amount of placer gold in the 1890s. A wonderful photograph that has a… somewhat otherworldly quality due to the long exposure times and the sharpness of the subjects in relation to the creek behind them. Silver gelatin photograph measuring 7 ¾ x 4 ¾ inches. Fine condition, some wear to mount.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good. First Edition. A photograph of a Chinese man on horseback in western attire, possibly taken in Oregon or California in the 1890s. A search of genealogical and newspaper records yield results for one or possibly two Charley Youngs of Chinese descent living in the United States during the period. We find a reco…rd of a Charley Young of Chinese descent living in San Francisco in the 1890s, with a birthday listed as 1865. There are also multiple newspaper accounts of a Charley Young in Portland, who married the superintendent of a school in Portland: "Charley Young, an Americanized Chinaman." He married Mary Bly, superintendent of the Baptist Chinese Mission School in Portland. A Charley Young later appears in court records for a smuggling case involving prominent Chinese merchants in Oregon, and describes a "Charley Young, an Americanized Chinaman recently married to a white girl." We are unable to tell, given the limited identification on the photograph, whether these records refer to our subjects, but regardless the photograph provides an uncommon visual record of Chinese-Americans in a rural United States setting, particularly during this period of severe population decline following the Chinese Exclusion Act. Cabinet Card measuring 5 ½ x 4 inches on larger mount. Identification on ink verso. Some fading, very good.

In den WarenkorbIn the mid-1930s, prolonged drought across the Great Plains, combined with falling agricultural prices, forced thousands of farm families into foreclosure and displacement. The crisis, central to what would become known as the Dust Bowl, led to widespread liquidation of farms and personal property, often through public auctions…held under distress conditions. Offered here is a stark press image documenting one such sale in Nebraska. The original caption reads in part: "This farm auction shop is typical of the mid-west where farmers, driven from their land by the drought, are forced to sell at auction their farm machinery, household effects in order to procure enough money to move to more fertile spots. The government is aiding the stricken farmers through loans and relief. It is thought that not less than 100,000 families may be moved from their farms by the government." The photograph shows the exterior of a "Sale Room," with equipment and household goods assembled for liquidation. Rothstein, working for the Resettlement Administration, produced some of the most widely circulated images of rural dislocation during the Depression. Images such as this were distributed through press agencies to illustrate both the severity of the crisis and the federal government's expanding role in relief and resettlement, and were reprinted later. This is an attractive original copy with fine contrast, with 1936 press markings verso. Minor edge wear and toning to caption, else very good. Press photograph, 8 x 10 inches, by Arthur Rothstein, distributed by International News Photos, with original caption on verso dated 1936.

He then issued them with together with an index with the copies of Volume 2 in his possession.John Duncumb (17651839), topographer. '. In 1780 Duncumb was engaged by Charles, eleventh Duke of Norfolk, the owner of extensive estates in the county, to compile and edit a history of Herefordshire. The terms were £2 2s. per week for collecting materials, the resulting work being the property of the duke. The first volume, containing a general history of the county and account of the city, was published in 1804; and the first part of a second volume, containing the hundreds of Broxash and Ewyas-Lacy, with a few pages of Greytree Hundred, in 1812. At the death of the duke in December 1815 payments ceased and Duncumb stopped work. The unsold portions of the work, with the pages of Greytree hundred then printed but not published, since they were part of the duke's personal estate, were taken from Hereford to London, where the parcels remained in a warehouse until 1837. The whole stock was then purchased by Thomas Thorpe, the bookseller, who disposed of his copies of the first and second volumes, with the section on Greytree, to which he appended an index. The second volume was completed with an index in 1866 by Judge W. H. Cooke, who issued a third volume, containing the remainder of Greytree, in 1882 and volume 7, covering the parishes in the hundred of Grimsworth, in 1892. Subsequently, volume 4, edited by the Revd Morgan G. Watkins, appeared in 1897, covering Huntington and Radlow hundreds. Volumes 5 and 6 appeared in 1912 and 1913 respectively, compiled by John H. Matthews and covering Wormelow hundred .' US$1485.
