Below the title is an English language translation of the Japanese text printed on the verso. This "Life Saving Leaflet" indicates that good treatment will be given to the bearer, and gives instructions on its use. Step one is "Come slowly toward the American line with your hands raised high above your head, and carry only this leaflet," followed by admonitions not to come forward in large groups and not to approach the lines at night. Thousands of similar leaflets were dropped over Japanese lines, though very few soldiers utilized them, preferring instead to fight rather than surrender.

		3pp. Folded quarto sheet. Central vertical fold and two horizontal folds. Small, closed tears at edges of the horizontal folds. A couple of small, very light fox marks. Very good. In a half morocco box. President Lincoln was assassinated on April 15, 1865; his body lay in state in the White House on April 18, and the funeral service took place around noon on the 19th. After the funeral itself, the official procession, the central act in the public mourning of the President's death, accompanied Lincoln's body from the White House to the Capitol. This program, issued by the War Department, outlines the order of the procession, listing the civilian, military, and political attendees in order of appearance. The hearse is represented by a rectangle outline of stars. The procession left the White House about two o'clock in the afternoon, marching down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol. The first three divisions were the military escort, representing all the elements of the Army and Navy. After them came the attending clergy and Lincoln's attending physicians, followed by the casket itself, the only wheeled vehicle in the procession, with the pall bearers to each side. Twelve Congressmen, General Grant and Admiral Farragut as heads of the Army and Navy, with two subordinates each, and Lincoln's family and delegates from Illinois and Kentucky followed the casket. Next came government officials, ambassadors, and state officials; representatives of various organizations, delegations from colleges, lawyers, doctors, and the press; the final group is listed here as "Citizens and Strangers." Directions are given for the assembly of the procession, which ended at the Capitol, where Lincoln's body again lay in state from the afternoon of the 19th until the morning of the 21st, when it was placed on the funeral train which took it back to Springfield. An important piece of Lincoln ephemera, commemorating one of the most tragic events in our nation's history.

Account of the Unparalleled Exploit of That Celebrated American Phenomenon, Tom Thumb, who trotted 100 miles in 10 hours and 7 minutes, on Monday, February 2, 1829, over five miles on Sunbury Common.  London: G. Smeeton, n.d. &#91;1829].  8p, 1 line ill.  Disbound from Smeeton's Universal Pamphleteer &#91;no. 15?].  **  The 1829 performances of Tom Thumb and Rattler made believers out of English horsemen, who couldn't believe reports of 2:35 miles achieved by American trotters.  The light, compact cart drawn by Tom Thumb attracted almost as much attention as the horse himself.  Page 1 illustrates Tom Thumb; pp. 2-6 treat the match; p. 7 describes the cart; p. 8 gives an account of a 1750 carriage match.  According to Youatt, Tom Thumb was "reported to have been an Indian pony" "from beyond the Missouri."

A few pages toward the rear have some waving, but remain crisp.  Despite exterior flaws, contents remain in very good condition.

		Original poster illustrated by Maurice Sendak, advertising the Children's Book Showcase, which was held in New York's Irving Plaza.  22"x17".  The poster features Little Red Riding Hood inspecting a sign held by the Big Bad Wolf pointing her to the Book Showcase instead of Grandma's house!  This copy is inscribed by Sendak to prominent Children's Book editor Margaret McElderry, with the signature dated Feb. 1976.  Originally from Ben Avon &#91;near Pittsburgh, PA], Margaret McElderry (1912-2011) attended the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh School before moving to New York in the 1930s to work for the New York Public Library in the Children's Division under Anne Carroll Moore. After World War II, she became an editor of children's books at Harcourt Brace, eventually establishing her own imprint at Simon and Schuster. Miss McElderry was the first children's editor whose books won both the prestigious Newbery and Caldecott medals in the same year (1952). She was married to Storer Lunt (d. 1977), long-time publisher and eventual president of W.W. Norton.  In about fine condition, temporarily backed with a sturdy board and covered with plastic, but easily removed for more proper framing.  Unique!

	<![CDATA[ 
		Autograph of May Yohannan in Arabic script, with explanatory text added ca. 1842.  Probably penned during a trip to Washington, as recorded on the slip.  Rear of slip reads "Ooroomiah is in Persia & was once a part of ancient Medea.  The People to whom May Yohannan belongs are called Nestorian Christians and supposed by some to be the ten last tribes of Israel- See Grant's Nestorians Edition of 1841 page 117 for reference to this individual.  He appeared in Washington in full oriental costume... apparently 40 or 45 years ago. Mar Yohannan VIII Hormizd (often referred to by European missionaries as John Hormez or Hanna Hormizd) was the last hereditary patriarch of the Eliya line of the Church of the East and the first patriarch of a united Chaldean Church. After succeeding his uncle Eliya XII Denha in 1780 as patriarch of Mosul, he made a Catholic profession of faith and was recognised in 1783 by the Vatican as patriarchal administrator and archbishop of Mosul. His career as patriarchal administrator was controversial, and was marked by a series of conflicts with his own bishops and also with the Vatican. Suspended from his functions in 1812 and again in 1818, he was reinstated by the Vatican in 1828. In 1830, following the death of the Amid patriarchal administrator Augustine Hindi, he was recognised by the Vatican as patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans and the Mosul and Amid patriarchates were united under his leadership. This event marked the birth of the modern Chaldean Catholic Church. Yohannan Hormizd died in 1838 and his successor Nicholas I Za'va was chosen by the Vatican, ending the centuries-old practice of hereditary succession in the Eliya line of the Church of the East.

		Lot of 40 original lithographs featuring caricatures of movie stars by renowned illustrator Jacques Kapralik. Romanian-born Kapralik worked as a poster artist for MGM and other studios.  He was a master of collage-style caricature, often using fabric, yarn, and found objects to add texture to his images.  These images were sometimes recycled from promotional posters for fairly well-known movies.  They are rare on the market and often sell for $75-$100 each at auction.  In black presentation folder, each is preserved in archival mylar sleeve and are in fine condition.  Likely distributed in movie trade magazines, the colors remain bright, corners square.  An excellent collection.

		Single sheet, folded once to 8-1/2 x 11," 4to; printed on all four sides. Photograph of Charlotte Perkins Gilman by Bianca Conti reproduced at front cover, fine. Mrs. Gilman began lecturing in the 1890's on such topics as labor and women's place. Throughout her life lecturing gave her both income and a means of communicating her feminist views. Her writings, as prolific and important, as they were and are never reached a wide audience. This flyer touches upon both her fiction and non-fiction, most notably, THE YELLOW WALL-PAPER and WOMEN AND ECONOMICS mentioning tributes to them by William Dean Howells and John Stuart Mills. A list of 24 lectures by subject is given as well as 10 courses on "Our Beliefs and Our Behavior," "Humanity and Its Work," "Children and The Brain," "My Country and Our World," "The Larger Feminism" etc. the last page cites press comments on her lecture and books here and abroad. The Pond Bureau, it should be noted, was founded by Major Pond, the most distinguished manager and lecture agent of his time who also represented Mark Twain, Susan B. Anthony and Emma Goldman, to mention a few of his clients. A valuable piece of ephemera documenting Miss Gilman's career as a lecturer. FAMOUS AMERICAN WOMEN, p. 156-157. NAW II, pp. 39-41.

		Large, heavy round metal sign (diameter: 29 1/2") lettered and painted on one side; with drilled holes for hanging at top and bottom .The lettering, is in yellow with black outline between yellow circles; in the center, on black ground, is a red white and blue shield; with more than 25 rusted circular dents evidently caused by shots from small caliber weapons or BB guns. An historic sign used by vandals or dissenters for target practice. Unique and visually superb. At its 1896 convention, the General Federation of Women's Club proclaimed that "bodies of trained housekeepers shall constitute those guardians of the civic housekeeping of their respective communities, officially endorsing the expansion of club activities beyond literary and educational subjects. As the G.F.W.C. became increasingly involved with Progressive reforms it repeatedly stressed that the role of women, as the protectors of home and family, gave them ample justifications for such activities. Some of the reforms supported by the G.F.W.C. were directly connected with the home and seemed, beyond question, to be the concern of women, like pure food and drug legislation and weights and measures laws. But soon, the interests of the Federation expanded far beyond issues related to domesticity. Between 1890 and 1910 G.F.W.C. conventions passed resolutions authorizing state and local clubs to study and work for improvements in public education, municipal government reforms, child labor laws, civic service reform, prison reform, highway safety, conservation, prohibition, and protective labor legislation for working women. At its 1914 convention, the Federation adopted resolutions which dealt with such diverse subjects as support for the merit system, calls for dress reform, attacks on prostitution, and, for the first time, the endorsement of woman suffrage. The G.F.W.C. was planned, organized, and its constitution drafted, in 1899; it's first meeting and Ratification Convention took place in New York City in late April 1900. One of the guiding lights of the Federation was Jane ("Jennie June") Cunningham Croly, who declined to be president but was recording secretary. Previously she had founded and presided over the pioneering club for women "Sorosis", and in 1889 she had founded the Woman's Press Club. From the start member clubs have been active and influential in volunteerism, social welfare and reform issues (such as child labor laws and juvenile court procedures), suffrage, protective labor legislation, improvement of education, civic improvement, establishment of public libraries, and the like. "These organizations &#91;the women's clubs] were a reflection of a deep need among women to do something more with their lives than the era's model of virtuous womanhood had allowed." And while recognizing and praising the commercial and financial gains and changes brought about by the men-driven Industrial Revolution, these club women aspired to mitigate its abuses and evils and also to preserve the better aspects of American culture. The G.F.W.C. has recently established a Women's History and Resource Center. Weatherford, American Women's History, pp. 143-144. Cullen-Dupont, Encyclopedia of Women's History in America, pp. 80-81.

		Bifolium. Printed by John Henry Nash as a keepsake for members of the American Institute of Graphic Arts. An essay about the sixteenth century French typographer Claude Garamond, with a color reproduction portrait of Garamond by Georges Plasse, tipped in. Nash was the first printer to use Garamond when it came back into fashion almost a hundred years ago, making this a fitting tribute from printer to typographer. The back side of the printed self-wrappers bears a facsimilie of the first page of Robert Estienne's Eusebius, which uses Garamond's beautiful Greek type, completed in 1544. Some creasing to folio, mostly in the margins; two creases to portrait along with a short closed tear to the bottom edge. Overall, very good. Together with A Franklin Keepsake, 1925, with text by Eugene Hasty. Also printed by John Henry Nash as a keepsake for AIGA. With a tipped-in color reproduction portrait of Benjamin Franklin, by Harry Raschen. In printed self-wrappers with a biographical sketch of Franklin on the back. Small, faint crease to lower right corner.

At the top, beneath the boldface title given above, is "Executive Department," headed by soon-to-be Union general Nathaniel P. Banks and listing his lieutenant governor, cabinet members and councillors. Next comes "Senators," listing all state senators by county and city. Finally, comprising two-thirds of the broadside, is "Representatives," a county-by-county directory of state representatives. A "Special Notice to the Members of the Senate and House" at the bottom makes it clear that this broadside was intended for public display in the state capitol building.

		Political broadside, heavy stock 14" X 22" cardboard, n.p., n.d. &#91;ca. 1966]. Near fine. Red and blue background on white stock. Full text reads, in a variety of typefaces: "Promises Made.... / Promises Kept / Re-Elect / OTTO / KERNER / Governor / X Democratic." Small circular red union stamp of the "International Alliance of Bill Posters Billers and Distributors" stamped at lower left. Kerner (1908-76) served as Illinois governor from 1961 to 1968; as a federal judge later, he was found guilty on corruption charges and went to prison, dying shortly after his release; so sterling was his reputation for honesty that to this day his many defenders maintain his innocence. This particular election poster is in exceptionally clean, unused condition, with sharp corners and none of the fading to which these posters are prone. From the collection of his close friend Ralph G. Newman, founder of Chicago's noted Abraham Lincoln Book Shop.

		&#91;Bloomington]: Leader Print, 1870 October 15. Folio (17" X 22½"). Very good. Minor wear along folds, which are archivally strengthened on verso; minor edgewear, mainly along right edge. Attractive early Illinois broadside advertising this estate sale of a large tract of land: "That beautiful maple grove lying east of the Ill. Central... is now offered by the estate of HENRY CROXTON, deceased, in such sized lots as will accommodate the wants of buyers, at Low Prices, on Long Time! The accompanying plat exhibits the addition, showing 150 beautiful residence sites, almost all of which are dotted with elegant forest shade trees, such as can only be had by years of care and attention..." Text dominates the upper half of this broadside (with the main title in an enormous 2½" tall typeface), while an "L" shaped plat map fills the lower half. "Exhibit A / EM Price" inked at lower right corner. Unusual and appealing.

		N.p. &#91;Chicago]: Chicago & North-Western Railway, 1882. Broadside. 14½" X 9". Very good. Bit of sporadic soiling, but overall remarkably clean and attractive -- given it's printed on a thin tissue paper, a rare survivor. Timetable "No. 4," which "Takes Effect Sunday, May 7th, 1882, at 12 o'clock Noon" and is meant "For the Government and Information of Employes only," containing two columns (headed "Trains Going West" and "Trains Going East") showing all stops for both freight and passenger trains between Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin. Signed in large type at the bottom by J.D. Layng as General Superintendent, C.A. Swineford as Superintendent and Wm. F. Fitch as Assistant Superintendent. Rare to find in ANY condition, given its inherent fragility, much less this attractive condition. Newly and archivally framed under UV-filtering glass with a single archival cream matte and 3/4" thick dark wood and antiqued gold frame (overal dimensions 18" X 12½") -- giving it a superb period feel.
