Description:
[Italy], [c. 1720?]. Period stiff vellum with paper spine; 8vo (102 x 160 mm); pp. 287, closely written Italic and Gothic script, in brown ink, on recto and verso (handwriting becomes increasingly minute as entries progress). Front board stained and cracked; some faint browning along edges of text block, not infringing upon legibility. Attractive manuscript travel dictionary, with entries in Italian and definitions in German and on Italian paper but with a period German ex-libris inscription. The anonymous author lays the text out comfortably in the beginning, but becomes constrained by space -- at Z, the text becomes dense and the definitions run on from each other.

Description:
America, c. 1800. Paperback. Very Good. Contemporary limp calf; oblong 4to (190x130mm); pp. [2] (title-p.), 61 leaves (contemporary foliation to 63, lacking leaves 22-23), scores and lyrics (in English) in brown ink on recto and verso. Lower stitching gone; many leaves worn and chipped; 2 leaves loose. Early ownership signatures of John G. Scott on the title-page. A remarkable survival. A collection of seventy-eight songs, usually in treble and bass clef, with lyrics in English, offering an interesting look at the marches, popular songs, and ditties of the period. It includes songs from Ireland, Scotland, England, and France, as well as songs now thought to be distinctly American, including "Anacreon in Heaven," the tune that would become "The Star-Spangled Banner," and the very rare "Galley Slaves." For a complete list of titles, please inquire.

Description:
California, 1914. Paperback. Very Good. More than 50 b/w or sepia silver prints, affixed to the recto and verso of disbound black leaves (175x134mm); photos range in size from about 10x15mm to 115x70mm, and some are captioned directly on the photo. Photographs are nicely composed, tho our amateur photographer makes occasional mistakes in focus or over/under-exposure. Occasional faint silvering, but prettily so. A fun collection of snapshots, offering a nice look at men and women's fashions of the period, as well as some pretty shots of date palms, and the south hills of Pamona. Primarily given over to portraits of friends and family, most labelled with the person's name (either in white ink below the image, or on the image itself), and all in the spirit of fun (a few shots include a burro names "Spuds"), if not the best taste (another image, showing a group of girls eating watermelon, is captioned "Pickaninnies"). A nice collage of little thumbnail portraits graces…

Description:
Leicester, Devon, et al, 1899-1909. Hardcover. Near Fine. Full leather (7-by-9 inches), all edges gilt, in hand-made cloth cover with calligraphic initials and floral motif embroidered on front cover; approx. pp. 200, different color papers, more than half full with autographs, prose, poems, and original artwork by numerous contributors. Cloth cover sunned along spine and edges, otherwise fine. A lovely volume. By turns funny and touching, this album compiled by Miss Elsie Nora Turner (who becomes a Mrs. along the way) includes original pen and ink drawings, watercolors, gouache, two sepia photographs (one including a very early image of a car), and 6 pages of autographs (including one with the heading, "My Wedding Day / June 9, 1909..." that is signed by her 4 bridesmaids). The artwork, contributed by friends and family, is invariably adept, ranging from the formal landscape, still life, or portrait, to cartoons (a cat caught in a goldfish bowl, a flamingo at battle with a frog, a man…
