Description:
Boston: Sold by Booksellers and Stationers, 1855. 24mo. 8pp. Illustrated with eight wood engravings all of which relate to the text passages appearing below them. These passages feature longer words broken out into syllables to aid young readers in their quest to expand their vocabulary. According to the wrappers, this is the seventh number in a twelve-volume series of "One Cent Toy Books," a list of which appears on the rear. Although no publisher is named, these titles were also issued under the Philadelphia imprint, Fisher & Brother around this period. And while the Fisher imprint of this title is noted in a single institutional holding, the present issue is not listed in OCLC. An uncommonly clean, bright copy in publisher's printed wrappers, which, perhaps owing to a bindery oversight, was never sewn into the wrappers.

London: Vincent Brooks, Day & Son, 1891. Boyd, E. M.. Small quarto. 64pp. First edition. With photo-etched illustrations in black & white throughout by Mrs. E. M. Boyd, Mr. R. André, and by the poet, Louisa A. Meredith. Although born in Birmingham, England, Meredith moved to New South Wales, and then Tasmania, after marriage. After realizing that there weren't any books available for children on Australian subjects, she set out to create a collection of simple rhymes for Australian children on local themes. Many of her poems celebrate Australia's flora and fauna: the waratah of the title is a flowering shrub that is the floral emblem of New South Wales, and other rhymes feature gum trees and bower birds. The rhymes first appeared in Meredith's collection of poems, Grandmamma's Verse-book for Young Australia. Bound in pictorial boards printed in red and green, with the title and a design of waratah flowers on the front board. Spine ends bumped, some rubbing to extremities, traces remain of erased… Read More

Printed in Chaucer type, with chapter titles and marginal notes in red. Each of the six parts begins with a wide border and a fourteen-line initial block containing the entire first word.

A near fine copy, vellum scantly stained and lacking four of six ribbon ties. (Peterson A45).

2014. Bailey, Peter. Watercolor on paper measuring 8 1/4 by 11 3/4 inches (image area 4 1/8 by 3 1/4 inches). Matted. The illustration reproduced from this watercolor appears on page 45 of the printed work, accompanying the following text: "And some few small aunts, not wanted in the kitchen, nor anywhere else for that matter, sat on the very edges of their chairs, poised and brittle, afraid to break, like faded cups and saucers." In Bailey's rendering, three fragile women sit between a window and a small Christmas tree set atop a sideboard. Peter Bailey is a prolific illustrator who has 140 works to his credit, primarily children's books. The edition of Thomas's immortal Christmas tale was published to commemorate the centenary of Thomas's birth. A copy of the published book is included with the artwork. Very fine.

Description:
Oakland, CA: Inkworks, 1975. (Shapiro, Susan). Three-color poster. Below the titular declaration of freedom is a string of figures holding hands, ascending a mountain; the lead figure holds aloft a banner that merges the symbol for woman with the flag of Vietnam. At the bottom of the poster is an inscription found written on the walls of a cell at Con Son Women's Prison in South Vietnam: "The mountain is only so high... / Our capacity is without limit. / The stars move; our will is unshakable!" As the poster states, Con Son Women's Prison was liberated on April 30, 1975. The prison was a vestige of colonial oppression, constructed by the French colonial government in the mid-19th century and used throughout the Vietnam War to imprison (and torture) political dissidents. The liberation of the prison complex marks a radical act of anti-colonialism, especially in its historical context. Fine. Framed. (Frame measures 17 1/4 by 21 1/4 in.).
