Description:
Buffalo, NY: World's Dispensary Medical Association, 1927. Staplebound. 32 pp., illustrations, color printed wraps. 4 x 5.5 in. Oblong pamphlet. Surface scratched on rear cover. A booklet with a very abridged history of aviation, emphasizing the then-recent solo flight of Charles Lindbergh from New York to Paris and the emerging possibilities of aviation in both war and commerce. The majority of the booklet is in fact a series of advertisements and testimonials for various medical products produced by V.M. Pierce, such as the "Golden Medical Discovery," "Anuric Tablets," and "Pleasant Pellets." Also includes ads for a publication, Medical Adviser, and Dr. Pierce's Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute. A blank form questionnaire (unused) and instructions for a free consultation are appended.

Description:
Larchmont, NY: [Edward S. Cornell, Jr.], 1942. Hardcover. [14], 214 pp., 1 plate, boards. 8 x 5 in. Title on cover above a design of stars and stripes patterned after the USA flag. A self-published treatise on good governance intended for the commoner (industrial or agrarian) of the early 1940s USA. The author, the heir of a family of manufacturers and factory-owners in New York, and a corporate executive, offers thoughts on how to "repair" government so that it returns to the principles outlined in the Constitution. The plan views national government and production, federal agencies (WPA, FHA), and employment for women as all threats to a constitutional republic, arguing instead for states' rights.

Description:
Paris, 1930. Paperback. A large folder, 12x9.5 inch plain printed wraps, containing variously paginated fascicles that are staplebound and are themselves fastened into the wraps with a decorative cord. Presswork on thick matte leaves (quite alkaline) features sepia gravure site photography of (mostly) modernist industrial buildings, plus bridges & roads & houses, all constructed with the company's product (tarpaper, poured layerings, road surfacing). Many diagrams also; these detail construction minutia. Captions and the brief running text entirely in French. Wraps somewhat edgeworn, a little toned and spotted, staples badly rusted while the cord remains sound and decorative. The photos are excellent, clearly reproduced and in clean condition. Laid in find loose leaves that further clarify builders' concerns. All in all, a very good exemplar.

Description:
Paris: L'Entente Communautaire, Fédération des Communautés de Travail, 1951. Paperback. 156p., illustrations, wraps. 9.5 x 6 in. Covers dusty and creased; chipped at foot of spine. Good. Ten year anniversary volume of the worker's co-op Boimondau which produced watch cases. The operation was founded as a business by French politician Marcel Barbu, who was sent to Buchenwald in 1944, the same year of collectivization. The work shows workers at machines and at leisure (binding books, singing, at the library, and engaged in boozy socialization) and closes with statistics on production and sales. The community shut down in 1971.
