Description:
New York: Goodwin & Co., [1889]. First edition. Album featuring color lithography by Julius Bien & Co. of trading card-style images of 23 unnamed women on 5 pages interspersed with 3 pages of women doing various things (without any card-style images). Intended to supplement trading cards found in packages of Old Judge and Gypsy Queen cigarettes. This series of cards features women, in some cases participating in games and sports, but mostly observing, gazing thoughtfully, or merely looking lovely. Includes images of women engaging in horseback riding, archery, bowling, swimming, sailing, "club swinging," coasting (i.e., sledding), ice skating, et al. 10 string-tied, oblong lithographic pages, including covers, printed on heavy card. There were 50 cards in the "1889 A38 (N165) Games and Sports" series according to the website of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We are unable to locate any further information and so must presume this album is either missing pages or it was not issued with all of the…

Description:
(San Francisco: Tales for Travellers, 1982). First edition thus: Number 12 in the short-lived "Selected Short Stories by Great Writers" series devised by James H. Schmidt in 1982 with the intent of providing quality reading material for daily commuters that was inexpensive enough to share. Originally issued in 4 slipcased volumes each of which housed 12 map-folded pamphlets. Most of the individual pamphlets included a single short story though a few had an additional story and/or poem. In this case, Kipling's poem "The Burden" is included as an epilogue to the story. Each of the 48 pamphlets in the series is 24 pages (including illustrated covers) printed on both sides of a single sheet folded up like a map. Fine. Increasingly scarce.
