Description:
[Berkeley]: printed in Vallejo for the author, 1947. 84p., perfunctory sketch illustrations, softbound in 8.5x5.5 inch decorated wraps. Mild fading and handling, a very good copy. Odd note, either the cover illustration screws up Calif's outline, or the SF Bay inlet really does enter from state's Nevada side.

Description:
Fresno: Sage-West Publishing Company, 1971. Pamphlet. 31p. including photos, later printing, 9x6 inch photodecorated wraps. Mild crimping along the spinefold, and back cover bears thumbprints; a fine copy within, no ownerships or any marking. On the only woman lynched during the gold rush; heavily reported at the time and her name was multiple times recorded as Josefa. Anti-Hispanic prejudice made it illegal for Mexican Americans to file mining claims, and the same stereotype may have been at work here, to assign a declasse' first name to a complex murderer; her live-in boyfriend was Hispanic.

Description:
New York: Underwood Typewriter Company, 1928. Paperback. 24p, 6x9 inches, illustrated with a dozen portrait photos (contestants) and ads, good booklet in stapled green pictorial wraps. Covers bear some dust and handling-grime, text a few pencilled tic-marks. This booklet contains the copy used in the 1928 International Typewriting Championship Contest. The story contained in this booklet is reprinted with the permission of the author and distributed with the compliments of the Underwood Typewriter Company. Edition reproduces copy as employed in this so-called International Typewriting Contest, each line showing an accumulated number of key-strokes. The contest, surely underwritten by Underwood, was ballyhooed (palms greased?) by MGM stars Norma Shearer and John[ny] Mack Brown, shown with "the champions;" and by California State governor C.C. Young (yes, there's a photo), who hosted them on the steps of the state capitol.
