Description:
Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1960. Hardcover. 8vo. Tan cloth with brown lettering. x, 390pp. Very good. Faintest of mild wear only, though tight and internally fine. First edition, boldly signed by Johnson in blue ballpoint on front flyleaf. From the collection of one who twice tried to occupy this address: Adlai E. Stevenson II (1900-65), who lost to Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956 and who appears in this text more than a few times. More recently, from the collection of his son, Adlai E. Stevenson III (1920-2021), U.S. Senator from Illinois (1969-81). A sharp copy with interesting background. By the way, historian and politician Johnson (1915-85) went on to edit the multi-volume "Papers of Adlai Stevenson.

Description:
N.p.: N.p., 1946. Hardcover. 8vo. Blue pebble-grain cloth with gilt lettering, rules and insignia. 276pp. Illustrations, foldout pictorial map. Very good. Faint binding wear only; endpapers a bit age toned and neat blue cloth tape on inner hinges. A tight and quite nice first and likely only edition of this bibliographically-challenged regimental history. This storied regiment, part of the 1st Infantry Division ("The Big Red One"), has been extremely active in every military engagement from the Civil War on up through the War in Afghanistan. Co-author Samuel Fuller (1912-97) was an infantryman in the 16th and went on to fame and fortune as a Hollywood director, novelist and screenwriter. A revised, refocused softbound edition titled "16th Infantry Regiment 1861-1946, Featuring the 8 Campaigns of World War II" was published in 1995, but this hardbound predecessor is rarely seen. Scarce.

N.p.: HC Publishers Inc, 1969. Hardcover. Introductions by Robert E. Brooker and Louis Sobol. Edited by Hal L. Cohen. 4to. Blue cloth with gilt lettering, pictorial dust jacket. 672pp. Color frontispiece, extensive illustrations. Very good/very good. Text block lightly, typically age toned; jacket rather rubbed and edgeworn, with spine lightly sunned and a couple edge chips -- but complete, overall attractive and (Brodart encased) fully handleable. Nice first edition of this facsimile reprint of the venerable retailer's Catalogue No. 97 for the Fall/Winter 1922-23 season, their "Golden Jubilee" (1872-1922 -- and now centennial), a massive soup-to-nuts offering of... well, anything and everything. Did the 1968 publication of a facsimile of competitor Sears, Roebuck & Co.'s 1897 catalogue prompt this one-upmanship from the older firm? Difficult to find in sharp condition like this and with jacket present.

Very good overall. Binding typically a bit edgeworn and age toned, but sound; text block mostly near fine; front flyleaf seemingly an expert period replacement; small inked note on front pastedown (no doubt from jeweler owner, who reminds himself "Clock movements Page 634 to 637"); faint floral mustiness. Tight, nice first edition of the "Fiftieth Anniversary Number 1887 1937" (according to front board gilt medallion) of this notable Chicago wholesaler best known for its watches and jewelry, as the title page statement ("This Catalog Is Sent to Recognized Retail Jewelers Only") attests. Becken was successor to two other notable Chicago businesses, which the front board duly notes: "Continuing Otto Young & Co. and C.H. Knights Thearle Co." The color images are particularly bright and charming. Thumb-indent… Read More
