Description:
Colorado Springs, Colorado: Byron H. Gurnsey, 1875. Original stereoview: albumen prints mounted on printed card stock. A rare and highly sought-after western stereoview showing a group of Ute males in front of the photographer's studio on Pike's Peak Avenue in Colorado Springs circa 1875. Most of the men are holding weapons; one of them has both a Maynard Carbine (the first one with a folding sight) and a Colt Model 1860 army revolver. This stereoview is from the collection of Robert N. Dennis, who was one of the most important stereoview collectors in the U. S. The New York Public Library's "Robert N. Dennis Collection" includes more than 70,000 stereoviews from his collection, many of which can be viewed on the library's website. The albumen prints are clean and bright, with very good contrast. The mount is clean, with a hint of edgewear and another previous owner's name written neatly on the back. Also on the back of the mount someone has written the title, "Ute Indians" in pencil.. First…

The dust jackets for Books 1-4 are clean and attractive with some light tanning, mostly along the spines. The jacket for Book Five presents well but has moderate foxing, a couple of tiny chips, and one 1 1/4" closed tear at the bottom of the rear panel. All dust jackets are now protected in archival polyester sleeves.. First Editions.…

Description:
London : Longmans, Green, and Co., 1865. Cloth. Good. 9" by 6". None. An uncommon copy of Southey's famous prose anthology, The Doctor. Edited by His son-in-law, John Wood Warter. New edition, complete in one volume. Adorned with a beautifully engraved vignette to the title page, as well as two further plates, one of which is coloured. Perhaps Southey's most enduring contribution to literary history is the children's classic The Story of the Three Bears, the original Goldilocks story, which first saw print in Southey's prose collection The Doctor. Rebound in a maroon cloth binding with gilt detailing to the front board. Externally, some rubbing and bumping to the cloth, as well as sunning and wear to the spine. Both hinges are mildly strained. Internally, generally firmly bound and bright, with only the odd spot. Neat ink signature to both the front free endpaper and the half title. Binder's label to the rear pastedown. Good
