Illustrated Wraps. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Very Good. See scans and description. New York: Leslie-Judge Co., 1923. First Edition. November 24, 1923, Vol. 85, No. 2195. Quarto, illustrated wraps, 32 pp. The titillating cover, "Turkey, With Very Little Dressing", is by renowned pin-up artist Enoch Bolles. Iinterior illustrations in color and b&w by a variety of noted, and less-noted, artists, some of whom are Ralph Barton; Clive Weed; Charles Baskerville; James Montgomery Flagg; Gilbert Wilkinson; Angus MacDonnall. A large number of others. Remarkable condition for a Judge issue from the 20's. Front cover soil (see scan), rust starting at staples, just a bit of the usually more pronouced age-toning to the paper. Rear cover bears subscriber's address at lower right corner. See scans. A strong Very Good or better. Sturdy. The "Thanksgiving" number of this famous and long-lived weekly magazine of humor & satire, which by this time was very Art-Deco in its illustrations; plenty of flapper-ism, too. Thanksgiving theme is suggested by the cover (see scan) featuring a fetching young lady snitching a nibble from the fridge, as well as by much of the interior humor, but Judge editors (at the time of this issue, Douglas H. Cooke, Eliot Keen, J.A. Waldron, William Morris Houghton, and William Edgar Fisher) were never much for limiting themselves entirely to the theme. Jokes, cartoons and satire abound, interestingly unencumbered by current forms of political correctness. Some of the artwork is really quite Art Deco here, though the issue was published just one year after the exposition which truly focused that art genre and eventually gave it its name. A notable example is the full-page intro illustration "Duse" by Ralph Barton for George Jean Nathan's piece on Ibsen's 'The Lady From the Mediterranean Sea', the lead actress in that being Eleonora Duse, and the Barton illustration being a caricature in Deco of both. Remarkable. Superb piece of Americana and American humor, laced with very with-it art. A very handsomely preserved copy, which is itself something of a rarity for issues from the era. See all scans.

Impressive 19th-Century Yosemite Photographs Likely by Charles L. Weed - the Pioneer of Yosemite Photography With an Unusual Focus on People and the Built Environment in Yosemite A wonderful contemporary album of 12 fine albumen photographs of Yosemite. The photographs are mounted on cards, with neatly printed captions in the mounts, adding a luxurious bespoke touch to the whole. These albumen prints were acquired by a well-to-do Welshman named William Rees, likely during a visit to California in the early 1870s. Rees then had the prints bound up in this nice album as a gift for his sister, Anne Lewis, the wife of a prominent Welsh coal magnate. The views date from the first half of the 1870s and are elegant representations of the breathtaking vistas and natural wonders of the Yosemite Valley. While the photographs are unsigned, we believe they were created by Charles L. Weed, the first photographer to bring a camera into Yosemite, during one of his later forays into Yosemite in the 1870s. A full listing of the photographs and a discussion of the attribution follow below. Yosemite and American Landscape Photography During the 19th century, American landscape photography underwent a significant transformation as photographers ventured into the uncharted territories of the American West. This period, known as the Golden Age of American Landscape Photography, saw the emergence of talented photographers who sought to capture the awe-inspiring beauty of the Western landscapes. More than any other place, Yosemite Valley served as the favorite subject for these pioneering photographic artists, helping to define the direction of American landscape photography. Charles L. Weed, Carleton Watkins, and Eadweard Muybridge were among the early photographers who played a crucial role in documenting and popularizing the majestic landscapes of Yosemite. The present group of evocative Yosemite photographs, dating from the mid-1870s, comes directly out of this then-still-developing tradition of landscape photography of the West. As Gary Kurutz put it: "Over the next four decades [after Weed's initial Yosemite photograph of 1859] Yosemite Valley would play a major role in shaping pioneer landscape photography of the American West. photography conveyed Yosemite's stunning beauty and exotic wilderness appeal to a mass audience, bringing the valley iconic fame and setting a standard for aspiring landscape and tourist photographers across the country." Provenance and Attribution The presentation inscription to Anne Lewis from "her brother William," dated November 14th, 1876, is almost certainly by William Rees to his sister Anne Lewis (n e Rees), the wife of Welsh coal magnate William Thomas Le.

No Binding. Condition: Near Fine. Mammoth albumen print. This beautiful photograph was formerly affixed back-to-back with another mounted photograph, giving a very faint linen-like texture on the surface. Thin strip of linen tape on mount. A splendid print with rich tonal range, worthy of the finest collections. CALIFORNIA PHOTOGRAPHY PIONEER. Charles Leander Weed is generally considered the first photographer to work in Yosemite. His 1859 trip there yielded approximately twenty 10 x 14 inch views and forty stereo images. For his 1864 photographic expedition to the Yosemite Valley and the Big Trees of Calaveras, Weed used a larger camera to produce this splendid mammoth-plate print (more than twice the size of the 1859 views), as well as a new series of stereo views. Weed exhibited his mammoth prints at the 1867 Paris International Exposition. Lawrence & Houseworth s 1870 Catalogue offered them for sale and observed, This series of views, together with the stereoscopic collection, were awarded the bronze medal at the Paris Exposition, for their superior excellence. Relatively little is known about Weed, who remains a shadowy presence (Palmquist). In addition to working in San Francisco, he established studios in China and Hawaii. His greatest accomplishment was his series of mammoth plate photographs of the Yosemite Valley and the Big Trees of Calaveras made in 1864. His photographs of the giant sequoias are especially noteworthy as they capture the magnificence and scale of the great trees. The Original Big Tree shows the first giant sequoia to come to the attention of the American public. Discovered by Augustus P. Dowd in 1852 in the Mammoth Grove of Calaveras, it was cut down the following year. Five men felled the tree after three weeks of work using only mining augurs. The bark was then assembled into the tree s original form for a traveling exhibit. The colossal stump of the Discovery Tree was planed and briefly used as a dance floor. This image shows a section of the trunk lying next to the domed building covering the stump. A superb Big Tree photograph by the pioneering Western photographer Charles Weed.…
