Hardcover. Condition: Good. Kate Greenaway (illustrator). This is an American reprint consisting of two stories bound together: "The Lost Knife", and "A Wet Afternoon" (the illustrations for which are quite similar in style). The book was published in 1884 by Dodd, Mead and Company. Again, it is a reprint . the stories (at least "The Lost Knife") were first published in England, and then there are earlier reprints issued in the United States. Indeed there are several versions of the stories . several binding variants. As we can see from the nature of the illustrations, it is obvious that the plates for the book had been frequently, and heavily used. This was typical of popular juvenile works. According to World Catalog (OCLC), Kate Greenaway contributed the illustrations for this story ("The Lost Knife"). She is not credited in this edition, but the illustrations, at least many of them, are obviously by her hand. The binding on this copy is a generic publisher's trade binding. All the same it has a charm of its own. Dressed in an embossed cloth-covered board binding, colored black on deep ultramarine (blue), the front cover design depicts a boy looking over a fence . behind him is a horse. The boy holds a riding crop. There are flowers in the foreground, and birds roost in the rafters above. The title is lettered in black beneath the boy. In the upper right corner of the front cover is a generic paper paste-down chromolithographic illustration depicting a lovely young girl.

Good. Exhibits wear and slight loss along original fold lines and at some fold intersections. Closed margin tears professionally repaired on verso. Verso repairs to fold separations. Blank on verso. Size 27.25 x 36.25 Inches. This is a 1966 Civic Education Service pictorial map of China, more specifically 'Communist China'. Created just before U.S.-China relations began thawing in the 1970s, the entirety of China is shaded red, the color most associated with Communism. Pictorial vignettes highlight Chinese industry, with particular interest paid to mining and manufacturing. Chinese progress in the realm of nuclear weapons is also prominently noted. An illustration of an atom marks industrial plants suspected of making the plutonium necessary in the development of these weapons, and a mushroom cloud, the most infamous image associated with nuclear weapons, marks the nuclear test site near Lop Nor. Icons of soldiers, situated throughout China and all of the surrounding countries, reinforce the tense military situation in the region. Short texts also explain that Soviet and Chinese forces had clashed along the border separating the two countries, as have Chinese and Indian troops along their mutual border. 'U.S. and other anti-Communist forces', essential to the American policy of 'containment' are stationed in Thailand, South Vietnam, Taiwan, the Philippines, South Korea, and Japan. A text box entitled 'Nation Wrapped in Conflict' provides details for the viewer about the population and geography of China, as well as the economic, military, and diplomatic situation in China. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by the Civic Education Service in 1966. The OCLC records examples of this map as being part of the institutional collection at Cornell University. An example is also part of the David Rumsey Map Collection. References: Rumsey 9521.000.
