Hardcover. Condition: Good. Second printing [stated]. viii, 183, [1] pages. Cover has some wear and soiling. Illustrated endpapers, Inscribed by the author on the half-title page. The Inscription reads "To President & Mrs. Stanley King with the cordial regards of The Author March 29 1933 "The Real Thing, underneath, that changes everything!" p. 59 Charles Rann Kennedy. In 1932, King was appointed the 11th President of Amherst College - the first in the institution's history to have been neither a minister nor educator. As President of Amherst, King was instrumental in developing the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., into one of the most important libraries of its kind. Charles Rann Kennedy (born Derby, England, 14 February 1871; died Los Angeles, California, 16 February 1950) was an Anglo-American dramatist. He became an actor, press agent, and theatrical business manager. This led to the production of dramas for the stage with which he combined the writing of short stories, critical articles and poems. He taught for several years at a College in Millbrook, New York. In 1898, he married actress Edith Wynne Matthison. She was an advisor during the development of his dramas, acted in them, and also taught at the College. Edith Wynne Matthison (November 23, 1875 - September 23, 1955) was an Anglo-American stage actress who also appeared in two silent films. She was born on November 23, 1875, in England. Her aunt was Welsh singer Sarah Edith Wynne. Matthison was educated in King Edward's Grammar School and Midland Institute, England, and began at age 21 to appear in musical comedy, later joining Ben Greet's company, playing leading parts in The Three Musketeers and Money. She specialized in Shakespeare and classic drama almost from the start of her career. She was acting in the same play, The Merchant of Venice, with Sir Henry Irving the night he died. Irving nearly died in Matthison's arms. She appeared in Greek and mystery plays, old English comedies, and modern plays. In the United States in 1904 she appeared in Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer. Matthison married the playwright Charles Rann Kennedy in 1898, acted in many of his plays, and advised him during their development. A happy couple who enjoyed a long marriage of 50 years, they had no children. They both taught at a college in Millbrook, New York.

Cincinnati, 1877. Three items: Partly printed letter in blue and black ink, dated in manuscript, approximately 10 x 8 inches; printed circular approximately 11 x 8 inches; and a partly printed certificate of membership with embossed red seal with blue ribbon and with a name, signature, and date written in manuscript, approximately 11 x 17 inches. All three items with fold lines. Very good. The private United States Secret Service Co. of Cincinnati, Ohio was the publisher of the American Criminal Gazetteer. Here, their circular outlines the Rules and Regulations of the company, noting that they solicited men to join a "corps of Officers" to observe and report crime. The third requirement listed on the circular states: "All Murderers, Burglaries, Embezzlements and Thefts of an important nature, where rewards are offered (or not), must be reported at this office immediately by the officer to whom it is first made known. The importance of these reports are manifest, for upon them depend the apportionment of rewards. " Crime is always to be reported, but the real motive for getting involved is the reward. The company, no doubt, got its share of the reward too. The partially printed letter reinforces the duty to report crime to lawful authorities and reminds the newly appointed officer that, despite his badge (not here offered), the officer has no authority to make arrests "we being a strictly independent detective agency having no connection either with National, State or Municipal Secret Service." The certificate appoints H. H. Saunders as a member of the force and is signed by H. H. Kimball as Secretary of the company. The circular, entitled Rules and Regulations, outlines the necessary qualifications for appointees, requirements of officers, and general rules of being a private detective: cool, collected, discreet, and disinterested.

Condition: Generally very good. A group of illustrated programs documenting mid-century performances of the dancer, choreographer, and anthropologist Katherine Dunham (19092006), one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century American dance. Trained in anthropology at the University of Chicago, Dunham conducted field research in Haiti, Jamaica, Martinique, and Trinidad during the 1930s, developing a distinctive choreographic style that blended Caribbean dance traditions with modern theatrical performance. Her company, founded in Chicago in 1931, became one of the most prominent Black dance ensembles in the United States and toured widely in North America, Europe, and Latin America. Titles are as follows: Katherine Dunham presents Bal Negre, A Brilliant Dance Revue. New York: Al Greenstone, circa 1946. [16] pp. plus illustrated wrappers, 11¾ × 9 inches. Illustrated throughout with photographs of Dunham and members of the company. S. Hurok Presents Katherine Dunham and her Company in Tropical Revue. New York: Hurok Productions, circa 1945.

4to. One page, approximately 175 words; docketed on verso of blank integral leaf "Treasurer's Bond / G.C. & L.R. N.C. /1849." Although plans for the Goose Creek Canal in Loudon County, Virginia, near Elizabeth Mills, had begun in 1830, its construction didn't start until December, 1849, in part because doubts had begun to arise on the efficacy of canal travel versus rail; although finished in the early 1850s, the canal languished and finally failed in 1857. Large old stain, else very good. Folded. (#5329). Signed.

First editions, first printings, signed by Roosevelt on the front free endpaper of the first volume of the Presidential series, a very rare complete set of the official publication of Roosevelt's papers in the deluxe leather bindings (save for the Governor volumes, which were solely issued in this leather-grain cloth binding), and including an original prospectus. A mammoth undertaking, published by four different publishers over 20 years, the set includes every document of major interest and every significant address issued and given by Roosevelt since 1928, from his years as Governor of New York throughout his four Presidencies. "When the history of the second quarter of the twentieth century in American life comes to be written, it is probable that the story will revolve around the personality, activities and pronouncements of one man; and it is absolutely certain that historians will turn for the primary sources of their study to the volumes containing that man's official and some of his unofficial utterances during that period" (prospectus). Together the volumes document, more comprehensively than any other publication, the Roosevelt years from his Governorship to his death in the midst of war. Roosevelt was closely engaged with the project and contributed introductions and notes. As a result, it has been called "one of the most interesting, authoritative, and historically valuable works of its kind ever published. [Roosevelt's] copious notes explain in many instances the purpose behind his words and the eventual objectives to be obtained, followed by a very human analysis of what actually happened. These illuminating comments bind the material into an integrated whole that becomes, in effect, a running history of the Roosevelt administration by FDR himself" (Halter, p. 133). The Governorship volumes were only published in the present leather-grain cloth binding. The Presidential volumes were published in both cloth, and these deluxe issues in leather. Roosevelt took a keen interest in the presentation and design of the books the book designer Joseph Blumenthal, who collaborated on the project, recalled "Mr. Roosevelt was a book collector, a press book buyer and a member of the Grolier Club (from 1934 until his death). He was, therefore, more than ordinarily concerned with the physical appearance of this, his monument in print" (Blumenthal, p. 33). The number of possible sets with the deluxe issue throughout is very low: 500 copies of the first five Presidential volumes were issued in leather, but this was reduced to 100 for the subsequent four; for the final four the number in leather is not recorded but is likely to be much smaller than this. As they were issued over so long a period, not all purchasers of the final volumes would have owned the earlier. We could not trace any full set in leather in commerce, nor know of any other. For the set to additionally be signed by Roosevelt is superb. The J. B. Lyon volumes, covering his years as Governor, 1929-32 The publisher J. B. Lyon Company published the first four volumes of the set, with the papers and addresses of Roosevelt's years as Governor, issuing them in 1930, 1932, 1937, and 1939 (the last after Random House had issued their edition of Presidential papers and addresses). They only issued them in the present red leather-grain cloth, unlike the subsequent Presidential papers and addresses volumes, which all had both standard cloth issues and the present deluxe issue in leather. Halter comments on the significance of these volumes, and of the Governor years for Roosevelt: "Much of what appears in these volumes indicates a social philosophy and course of action similar to that carried on by the Federal Government after FDR became President. The careful reader of these gubernatorial papers will realize that the 'New Deal' in Washington was not completely new" (Halter, pp. 96-97). The Random House volumes, covering his pre-Presidential years 1928-32, and first term as President, 1933-36 Random House published the subsequent five volumes in 1938, the first volume comprising pre-Presidential papers (duplicating some material from the Governor volumes), and the latter four the years 1933 to 1936. The set in leather was limited to 500 sets, compared to 8,000 sets in cloth. The prospectus which accompanies this set advertises their edition: "Random House consider The Public Papers and Addresses of Franklin D. Roosevelt the most important publication it has ever undertaken". The prospectus is titled "History. by the man who made it", and is a desirable item in its own right: "a beautifully designed brochure printed on hand made paper. The first formal announcement of the monumental Public Papers" (Halter, p. 43). It is still in its original envelope, addressed to Frederick B. Adams (1910-2001), later director of the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York City from 1948 to 1969. The Macmillan volumes, covering his second term as President, 1937-40 The Random House volumes were not a great success, most likely as the total print run of 8,500 sets was far more than the market could bear Hoover's papers, in contrast, only sold 2,000 sets. Blumenthal speculated sales may have been limited by their publication after the Supreme Court "packing" case when Roosevelt's popularity was at a low ebb (Blumenthal, p. 34). Random House, who were reported as investing $10,000 in advertising alone, were much disappointed and had to remainder some of the cloth copies in a cheaper binding. Roosevelt objected to this, and switched to Macmillan for these subsequent four volumes, covering the years 1936 to 1940, which were published on 2 December 1941, days before the attack on Pearl Harbour. Macmillan wisely reduced the print run to 3,600 copies, of which 100 copies were bound in leather, matching in style the Random House deluxe issue. The Harper volumes, covering third and fourth terms as President, 1941-45 For the final series of volumes, covering the wa.
